Voter Suppression and Why The Republicans Love It So Much?

“It’s impossible for me to understate or downplay the importance of this moment, and I hope that my colleagues in the media — who too often over the last year have craved or even pretended about a return to the politics of “normal,” when we are nowhere near normal — will wake up and see this. Of course, Biden’s presidency deserves our full scrutiny, with praise for what’s gone right (an economic boom) and criticism for what’s gone wrong (broken promises on climate and student debt). But while Biden is seeking to restore democratic norms, a shadow ex-president — unpunished so far for his role in an attempted coup on Jan. 6 — is rebuilding a cult-like movement in the heartland of America, with all the personal grievance and appeals to Brownshirts-style violence that marked the lowest moments of the 20th century. On the 89th anniversary of the date (Jan. 30, 1933) that Adolf Hitler — rehabilitated after his attempted coup — assumed power in Germany, are we repeating the past’s mistakes of complacency and underestimation?”:

Analysis: Trump offers chilling glimpse into possible second term

Former President Donald Trump conjured a vision of a second term that would function as a tool of personal vengeance, and become even more authoritarian than his first, when he vowed to pardon US Capitol insurrectionists if he runs for the White House again and wins.

Of course to him the definition of "illegal" is "anything Trump doesn't like for whatever reason".

What a ****ing douchebag. Easily the worst president we have ever had and one of the worst human beings I have encountered in my 50+ years on this planet. Historically one of the worst in public life in American history for sure. They say father time catches up with everyone eventually, any way to make father time run faster in this case?
 
This is why I advocate voting out every single Republican. Even "moderates" can't rule out supporting wannabe dictator Trump:



This is unreal. Her life was under threat on Jan 6. Trump attempted to overthrow our democracy. YET... Susan Collins can't rule out supporting Trump in 2024.

You're either pro democracy or pro authoritarianism at this point. Policies don't matter. Do we believe in self government or are we going to sell out or democracy for authoritarianism?
 
You know what's telling? Trump telling his followers that he'll pardon the Jan 6 folks if he's re-elected in 2024. I thought those arrested were antifa BLM deep staters trying to make the real Trump supporters look bad? Why would Trump pardon antifa? And of course his followers applaud, like the trained seals that they are.

If only. Even that event would likely come with a huge price, but right now, I’ll take it….

Yes the last thing we need is Trump the Martyr. Might be worse than Trump the Evil Clown we have now.

Oh weird. Who could have ever Foreseen this? Our democracy is under attack by folks who want to maintain (white) minority rule no matter what the majority wants.

Remember all the Republican claims over “voter fraud?” Remember all the voter suppression laws passed using the excuses of the “2020 election fraud?”

I love the way he starts with "yeah I didn't pay attention to anything going on about this, didn't watch the hearings, didn't check out what they said about the evidence or anything, but I am pretty sure Trump won. Like by a lot."
