    This trumps disclaimer for registering for the Tulsa rally.

    When Republicans read the platform their party is using for the 2020 campaign, they may be surprised to see that it is full of condemnations of the sitting president.

    “The survival of the internet as we know it is at risk,” the platform reads. “Its gravest peril originates in the White House, the current occupant of which has launched a campaign, both at home and internationally, to subjugate it to agents of government.”

    The warning about speech online is one of more than three dozen unflattering references to either the “current president,” “current chief executive,” “current administration,” people “currently in control” of policy, or the “current occupant” of the White House that appear in the Republican platform. Adopted at the party’s 2016 convention, it has been carried over through 2024 after the executive committee of the Republican National Committee on Wednesday chose not to adopt a new platform for 2020.

    The platform censures the “current” president — who in 2016 was, of course, Barack Obama — and his administration for, among other things, imposing “a social and cultural revolution,” causing a “huge increase in the national debt” and damaging relationships with international partners.

    Bwahahaha...



    And what did they release? A a sketchy poll on Florida, showing its tied, and Biden leads among voters that made up their mind. What a fiasco, after boldly talking up a poll that was "in favor of" trump.

    Trump’s most loyal media ally promised a pro-Trump poll. It didn’t deliver — and then pulled its story.

    Just like Trump knows what he’s doing in Tulsa, GOP operative know what they’re doing with this.

    So, are Democrats planning to do something about voter suppression or just let the Republicans get away with it and then complain about it after it happens?

    What happened in Georgia was a farce of the highest order.

    On the heels of staging his Tulsa campaign rally on Juneteeth, and now this, are there no coincidences anymore?

    Democrats have been trying to do things since 2018 after Kemp got elected.

    There are a lot of other things as well but Democrats don't really have power to do anything.

    so more likely than not that Republicans will continue to get away with it :(

    the more people that vote, the lower the Republicans chances, and they know it...that’s why they’re trying so hard to prevent mail in balloting

    the issue of blatant voter suppression should be a much bigger deal

    I really want Trump to lose by huge numbers come November. I want it to send a message to the rest of the world. America is back being a leader in the world stage. That division is not a way to lead the most powerful nation in the world
