    So nobody’s votes will count.

    People who stood in line for hours, maybe missing a day’s pay, just so they could vote, will be undermined by Republicans.

    All because Donald Trump has always been a very shitty businessman —who owes Russia an insurmountable debt—and his party is being blackmailed.

      People are already having their votes undermined and disenfranchised by republicans, this is an escalation of the same things they’ve been doing for ages.

        Yes, they have seen the analytics and the models. Hence we have gerrymandering and removal of voting stations in Republican controlled areas.

        Trump only won by electoral college gamesmanship— he has never won the popular vote and he never will. They can see all of this, hence the sudden pandering to black people and the stupid ham fisted gold sneaker approach.

        George W. Bush also lost the popular vote to Gore and squeaked in because of fuckery— a tilted decision by Republicans and little “hanging chads”

        The population is getting less and less white and it scares the shit out of Republicans. So their strategy, like a child losing at a board game, is to flip the board over mid game. They cheat and hope the population is too apathetic to do anything about it.
