Don't blame me, I voted for the other guy. (Politics General)

The best is the fact that the Republicans are not in charge of the white house right now.

For all their machinations and schemes, the Republicans wouldn’t be able to pull off a conspiracy of that magnitude.

Not for lack of trying, mind you, simply a lack of competency.

Coincidentally, all of these legislative defeats in trying to overturn the results of the 2020 elections resulted in pretty much zero consequences. The whole was able to be used as a dry run of the kind of arguments that could be used the next time around, complete with “Please Try Again” participation trophies.

Now that they know there’s no risk involved, what’s stopping them from going all-in for 2024?

The duality of man.

The way of Ashli Babbit?

In the latest “It hurt itself in its own confusion!” news, the MAGA crowd are now trying to attack Kamala for daring to say that she… owns a gun

Despite the MAGA crowd constantly creaming themselves and writings numerous fanfics about how much they want to shoot minorities “troublemakers”, it’s now suddenly a bad thing when Kamala says she’s want to protect her family with a gun

What’s new? The Trumpers previously attacked Obama and Biden for owning guns; accusing them of being hypocrites.

Aaaand, Texas has apparently purged 500k voters.

@Background Pony #1F81
Her opponent isn’t allowed to own a gun, so really it’s just bragging.

@Background Pony #1F81
They really, really, REALLY want to say that Harris and Walz hate guns so that they can have their simplistic black/white narrative.

There should just be automatic voter registration. It would be so much more convenient and make things so much simpler.

@marinus18
There should be ID smartcards that you can show at the booth with a picture of yourself like in Europe. What is this voter registration crap?

Yes there should, but Republicans need to be able to do this in order to win elections.
