Never once did the Pedo Protector/Pedophile mention anything about his unconstitutional ‘concept of a plan’ being bipartisan. He specifically stated he wanted Republicans to take control of our elections.
What Could Possibly Go Wrong?!
On Tuesday Trump told a gaggle of reporters that he wants the Republican Party to “nationalize” voting in the United States, even as the White House tried to walk it back and members of his own party criticized the idea.
Trump believes the federal government should “get involved” in elections that are riddled with “corruption,” reiterating his position that the federal government should usurp state laws by exerting control over local elections.
If states “can’t count the votes legally and honestly, then somebody else should take over,” he said in the Oval Office, accusing several Democratic-run cities of corruption. “Look at some of the places — that horrible corruption on elections — and the federal government should not allow that,” he added. “The federal government should get involved.”
This is not the first time Trump has suggested this unconstitutional idea; he spewed the same unconstitutional crap during a call in to the Dan Bongino podcast.
I have been warning for months that he is going to try to steal the election. That is why my law firm is litigating 80 voting cases with more on the way. It is also why I tell people to sign up for Democracy Docket to stay imformed. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Trump wants Republicans to ‘nationalize’ US elections. The Constitution might get in the way
Crucially, the Constitution provides no avenue for a president to decide how elections are run. So regardless of what Trump means by nationalizing the elections, it is not something that he has the power to order on behalf of the executive branch alone.
“The founders were very wise in singling out elections as a place where the president has literally no power,” said David Becker, a nonpartisan expert on voting procedures who advises election officials from both parties. “Only state legislatures and Congress have the authority to regulate elections, and courts have upheld this many times.”
Moses Mike, the ‘Constitutional Lawyer’ Spews Out:
Mike Johnson is such a mealy-mouthed little bootlicker for Trump. He can’t even condemn the president for saying we should nationalize and take over elections in blue states. These people are useless.

Mike Johnson on Trump calling for Rs to "nationalize" elections: "We had 3 Republicans who were ahead on election day in last cycle & every time a new tranche of ballots came in they just magically whittled away until their leads were lost. It looks on its face to be fraudulent. Can I prove it? No"

During the early years of the Biden administration, Democrats pushed for a federal elections takeover of their own that would have banned voter ID nationwide, among numerous other controversial provisions.
