"If a legal document doesn't write my name with special punctuation, it doesn't count." When they're losing, they invent imaginary new rules and say the opposition is invalid for their failure to adhere to those new rules (which then vanish). 1315
Reposted by 🍁 Safe for Workplace News 🍁Waldo Jaquith @waldo.net · 03/12/2025"Biden's use of an autopen means anything he authorized is null and void" is an expansion of a tactic long used by Republicans: something a Democratic president did is bad because they didn't do a crucial, special thing that was just now invented. Flag pin, suit color, fringe-less flag, whatever. 3509
Reposted by 🍁 Safe for Workplace News 🍁Waldo Jaquith @waldo.net · 03/12/2025This works for Republicans in part because major media outlets pretend that these rules could be valid, so the public thinks "hey, there's a dispute, it's unclear." It's been hours, and the Times doesn't appear to have yet deemed it newsworthy that Trump says everything Biden did is null and void. 2274
