No, you see: they always say our democracy. You're just not part of it.

Democracy is a threat to (((their democracy))). “our democracy” is just a euphemism for jewish control. Anytime you hear that stupid phrase “threat to our democracy” just replace it with “it’s a threat to jewish control”, then it all makes sense.

Just a reminder that even Lincoln didn't try and suspend elections during the Civil War.

He suspended elections in Maryland. And he sent units to "guard" polling places

Oh, there were irregularities to be sure: they didn't even attempt to collect votes for seceding states, despite claiming that they didn't actually leave the union. By this time, Louisiana and Tennessee or under Union control and held the election, but they didn't count their electoral votes either.

The Union freely flipped from considering Confederate states to be "in rebellion" but still a part of the United States to treating them as a separate country as it suited Union needs, which is a whole separate topic. For example, they extorted them into ratifying the 14th Amendment as a condition of rejoining the Union- which makes no sense as they spent the entire War claiming they never legally left it.

My point being, Lincoln at least held the election to maintain the veneer that the country was still a democracy, and presumably would have stepped aside if he had lost. The narrative that Ukraine is a democracy heroically resisting an invader collapses if they simply turn off elections because they're afraid they won't be happy with the results.

I didn't think you were defending Lincoln. I just wanted to point out he had his finger on the scale.

After all the shit he pulled in the Civil War, I'm more convinced Lincoln would Fortify™ the election if it ever looked like he could lose. He'd also be the first one to break Washington's two-term tradition instead of FDR and become the first Eternal President. We were only spared from this particular timeline thanks to John Wilkes Booth.

I find it real pitiful that Ukranian people couldn't see how bad it could get if they elected comedian as a president.

They got propagandized by the EU and the US to install a puppet against their own interest.

Same shit happening all over Europe and how do you think Obama and Biden got elected?

Ukraine has been at the forefront of election manipulation since the Soviet Union fell, the fact that they gave up their nuclear arsenal to appease Russia is only a thing a puppet who wants instability in the region would enact.

I don't know if they really had a choice in it. Status quo is you put in your ballot then the news tells you who won. If they're in concert with a corrupt power hungry force how would you as joe-voter even know fraud occurred

Aka how Biden got 81Million

Western politicians and journos have dug themselves in a hole with their uncompromising, brainwashed ideology. They have to double down or admit that "The Wrong(TM)" people were right ... again ... and again ... and again.

Outright admission that Zelensky is acting AGAINST the will of the Ukrainian people. Then again, that's not really a revelation when you know history beyond 12 minutes ago.

Yeah, most Ukrainians want no part of escalating the Russia situation happening right now, so a legitimate election would be bad news for jew mafia and their puppet regime that (((Victoria Nuland))) put in power back in 2014, especially after tens of thousands of Ukrainians have already been killed because this puppet regime can’t help but antagonize Russia at every turn.
