Reports of this happening in Tennessee. https://www.wsmv.com/2026/10/21/early-voting-concerns-were-brought-head-tennessee-elections-heres-what-he-said/

I bet lots of these electronic voting machines have been upgraded to automatically fix votes accidentally cast for the wrong candidate.

I'm afraid you completely misunderstand what dictatorship means. The U.S. has been an oligarchy for a long time, because the citizens have allowed it and continue to do so to this day. Now, as a logical consequence, the screws are being tightened. If there were still one last chance, resistance would be called for right now. But since that isn't happening, it will come down to what you're already mistakenly assuming.

I’m sorry to have to say this, but the current situation is only the beginning.

Where exactly did I display a misunderstanding of dictatorship? I agree with your general point, but your patronizing tone over red herrings gets a downvote. Bad faith.

I thought it was because you guys have a pathetic system that was easily subverted?

There seemed to be a few moments where he was almost impeached and removed; but every time the answer to "wait, you can do that?" was "yes, and apparently without consequences." Your checks and balances amounted to empty threats and warnings, as he bunt down everything around him.

Try the same shit in any country with a prime minister and they'd be torn apart and on the street by a month. It shouldn't be the average citizen's problem to enforce the laws of your own country on your president. Therefore I don't think the blame rests with them either.

The U.S. has been always been an oligarchy.
