Also, I believe that there are approximately 10-12 states that have changed their state election laws so that the winner of the national vote across the country will determine which candidate will win that state’s electors.

To the Trump supporters, I have a couple of questions. Let’s start here:

1. Don’t you accept any of the recent statements coming out from former Trump Administration military officials and other former high level officials who worked for him describing him as unfit to serve as President?

Gotta wonder why Republicans are committing arson to prevent votes from being counted. It's almost as if they're afraid that they're going to lose.

Ah, Roseanne Barr.

During a podcast interview with comedian Theo Von, Roseanne Barr recently said, “Nobody died in the Holocaust, either. That’s the truth.” As if a casual Holocaust denial wasn’t horrific enough for the Jewish actor and comedian, she immediately escalated her rhetoric: “It should happen. Six million Jews should die right now ‘cause they cause all the problems in the world. But it never happened.”


https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2023/07/05/roseanne-barr-holocaust-comments-new-low-antisemitism/70373397007/

So, in your attempt to refute the notion that Saturday's Klan rally in MSG was a modern day Nazi convention, you post a tweet from someone who is a Holocaust denier that says Jews should die.

Bro.


I guess i went to klan rally too when i went to nassau colliseum. <heavy sarcasm>
ridiculous. i went to a rally, and nothing of the sort was klanish.
all desperate slimy smear tactics by the left to stay in power.
its disgusting, and they hide behind a smug arrogance that they know best.

bro.


But do you grab women by the pussy without their consent?

Rational people will see this stuff and go "wow, only Trump supporters are the ones committing fraud and trying to destroy ballots, clearly there's a problem with them"

"Free thinkers" will see this stuff and go "wow, only Trump supporters are the ones committing fraud and trying to destroy ballots, clearly the Dems are just that good at rigging the system they don't get caught"

Because to the conspiracy theorist, the absence of evidence is evidence of a cover-up.

This should be the law of the land. One person, one vote. Your vote shouldn't count more or less because of where you live.

Free thinkers will actually just google it and find the evidence of both sides instead of condescending and pretending it doesn’t exist because it conveniently wasn’t spoon fed to them by their partisan MSM

https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/queens-voter-fraud-democratic-primary-2022/

Just keep furthering the divide tho, good strategy.

It’s just so crazy that anybody would think they could speak for the tens of millions of people they’ve never met and say they’re all squeaky clean and not guilty of any wrong doing. Like wtf lol. The tribalism is wild.

One thing that never gets discussed enough is the impact the election has on Supreme Court appointments. Another 3 will probably retire during the next term.

I have to question why MAGAs feel that they need to do illegal things to help Donald Trump win?

I mean, by what MAGAs say, Trump is winning this in a landslide. So why the arson, why the voter fraud?

Never a moment in my life have I felt the urge to commit voter fraud or prevent someone else from voting. Even if I disagree with them, everyone has a right to vote.

Wait. This guy in your link tried to commit fraud in the Democratic primary.

I don't know if that's the same as Republican arsonists burning drop off boxes in Democrat districts.

Either way, any person that commits voter fraud should be punished. I think we can all agree on that.

On another note I dunno if you saw the other day but one side called Puerto Ricans garbage, made Watermelon comments about Black people (on top of saying we eat cats and dogs), and said that Palestinians are taught from the age of 2 to kill Americans.

Who is furthering the divide again?

Dude there’s just crazy people everywhere. You’ve never done a lot of the shyt that people throughout history have done. Why focus only on voter fraud? People are all kinds of messed up lol. People rob, steal, kill, torture, etc etc etc. it’s a sick world.

I can’t be the only one here with friends, family, acquaintances, associates, etc on both sides. Surely you can attest to the fact that everyone is different and generalizing isn’t ever good or accurate. Not sure why it’s done so much here..

There's a shot at flipping Ted Cruz and gaining control of the Senate if Tester can hold his seat in Montana. I think the House will go blue. A unified congress and WH would be able to reform this rogue court.
