    ocean515's attempt to deflect from the WI court judge's ruling means nothing.

    I know it’s difficult to stay on topic, but try.

    Sincerely, everyone

    The Mueller Report will note the taking down of many Trumpers.

    There will be many more to come.

    When you write "they no longer even pretend to represent Americans" you open the door to eating those words through examples that refute your claim.

    What is untrue about what I said? This thread is specifically about the methods Republicans are resulting to steal elections or retain as much power as possible. It isn’t about Obama, it isn’t about Muller (who is a Republican btw), it isn’t even about Democrats.

    You people cannot defend the actions of your own party which is why there is so much deflection and avoidance.

    The fact that you think you made me “eat my own words” by mentioning the muller investigation which has resulted in the arrest of the Trump campaign foreign policy adviser, Trump’s former campaign chair, Trump’s former national security adviser, Trump’s former lawyer and numerous shows just how completely delusional the entire base has become.

    We look at things like the partisian gerrymandering case headed to the SCOTUS where it was admitted on tape Republicans were packing districts the the maximum extent possible, the actions in WI and GA, and the blatant electorial fraud in NC — you open collusion and corruption throughout your party — all evidence the narrative of Republicans is unwanted by the American people.

    The new law offers people plenty of time and opportunity to vote.

    Why do Democrats squeal if the law makes voting just a tiny bit more difficult?

    There's absolutely nothing unreasonable about this law.

    You can't just cry "unconstitutional" over things that take away the ease and convenience of voting.
    So what they don't have early voting anymore?

    It looks like that judge ruled on a technicality. The legislature can't meet during irregular times to pass laws without the authority of the governor, but the governor at that time was still Walker, who certainly would have given his consent to get those laws passed.

    Why would any person support making voting just a “tiny bit more difficult”? We already have one of the lowest voting turnouts in the world.

    Voting should made to be as easy as possible, as standardized as possible and as secure as possible.
    Full stop.

    Do you support making arms being just a “tiny bit more difficult” to obtain? Both are rights encoded in the constitution.
