This is good news, but I worry that folks on the left might be lulled into a false sense of security. We won't be done fixing Trump and MAGA's mess for years to come and we'll need every last vote and any help that can be given. I really believe complacency got us here and it will destroy this country if we let it.
Complacency is a real threat. Everyone needs to vote to remove republicans. They want to change the rules so they can always win. If enough Trump supporters were in the right places of power last election, we'd have lost our democracy.
Trump is a liar. But he is running a cult of fanatics. Ironically Trump said he could shoot someone on 5th Ave and he wouldn't loose any voters. He was correct about that.
Everyone needs to vote. Period. Doesn't matter which side you're on. If everyone actually in the voter rolls votes in person with ID, there's no room for either side to claim it was stolen or manipulated.
They still will claim fraud regardless. Voting by mail or other methods allowed are available and easier. Just remember to do it.
~~in person with ID~~
No, those kinds of restrictions only exist to disenfranchise voters.
(Not sure why the strikethrough markup isn't working.)
Not everyone can vote in person. I vote by mail because of my job. Voting by mail is legitimate.
And Trump claimed the 2016 and 2020 elections were rigged and stolen before the elections or counting was done. It is a way to for criminals to try to steal elections and cast doubt on our voting process. It is evil.
There's no room for it to be claimed that 2020 was stolen. There never was, but 3 years later, there's overwhelming evidence it was fair. That hasn't stopped it being a major part of the GOP platform.
Exaclty. In 2016, they kept going on and on about how the Trump operation was in shambles and poorly organized, etc., etc. They still won.
