Hey all you African Americans: remember when Der Dotard demanded your votes, ask you what the hell do you have to lose?' Now you know. This isn't the 1960s. White people are no longer fighting for your right to vote. If you have to guess who is, you have already lost. You are thisclose to losing your political voice and your rights. So, what are you going to do about it?

If it wasn't for chickenfaghawk lfilthy, gay sex would barely be mentioned on the DR.

All the filthy truck-stop talk would absolutely cease if lfilth and smellfiger got tossed.

They are obsessed.

Horst is the the gay guy who has a single-shot shotgun and lives in the mountains. His wife doesn't know about his sual life life as a ----------. I hate that, but the guy cant even grow basic celery. He's getting reamed while telling his wife he's gardening.

So, yet another example of the MAGA GOP trying to dictate the election results, instead of allowing the voters to vote?

Politicians choosing voters, instead of voters choosing politicians.


Welcome to MAGA.

So they should have an election with unconstitutional districts?

Thought you were all about the law? You sound like Newsom, quit the bipartisan commission for the "redistricting" mob rule.

Yeah, that seems to be quite apropos of late.

Denying the right to vote of those whose political opinions may not align with that of MAGA.

Why do Republicans seem to be so focused upon denying the voting ability of those valid voters they disagree with?

U.S. Appeals Court Strikes Down North Carolina's Voter ID Law (2016)
www.npr.org

...The appeals court noted that the North Carolina Legislature "requested data on the use, by race, of a number of voting practices" -- then, data in hand, "enacted legislation that restricted voting and registration in five different ways, all of which disproportionately affected African Americans."

The changes to the voting process "target African Americans with almost surgical precision," the circuit court wrote, and "impose cures for problems that did not exist."

The appeals court suggested that the motivation was fundamentally political -- a Republican legislature attempting to secure its power by blocking votes from a population likely to vote for Democrats....

The GOP certainly seem to want to renegotiate the end of the Civil War.
