Love it. Stop treating these toadies like serious people seeking elected office , and call them out for who they truly are… and watch them sputter . Priceless.

Good!!! Kobach is a professional denier of voting rights to blacks and the poor. I wonder why CNN thinks it is necessary to give this worm time on CNN.

Perfect. False premises are oxygen to these people and when you take that away, yeah, they’re going to splutter.

Kobach had that De(er) Santis in headlights stare during the exchange.

if Kris Kobach wins he’ll make a rule declaring that election registrars will only process every 3rd application if a voter declares DEMOCRAT💀

I don’t get it. That’s what Kobach has literally been doing for decades: why isn’t he proud of it? Why doesn’t he say, “Thank you, Jeff, for recognizing the hard work I’ve put into preserving the status of white culture and power”?

I mean, sure, that’s a stupid thing to admit, but it’s not quite as stupid as actually devoting an entire career to it. And if he’s dumb enough to do the latter, then why not dumb enough to admit the former?

I mean, for all the effort that Kobach and his fellow Republic Party cohorts put in to opposing immigration and voting rights, you’d think they’d want to admit what they’re doing. Hell, given the narcissism of most of these guys, you’d expect them to want kudos and plaudits for it.

It’s almost like they know what they’re doing is shameful and wrong.

he has worked his whole life to disenfranchise poor and minority voters.

As fun and necessary as this is, unfortunately vanity candidate Greg Orman is most likely giving this election to Kobach. And we’ll have to live with the slimy bastard for at least another 4 years.

Good for Toobin. It’s time to stop pussyfooting around and pretending that these bigoted aholes aren’t trying to disenfranchise people. It’s a fking lie. Did you see the report where they moved the polling place WAY out of town in Dodge City because City Hall was being renovated? And then when a team of investigators went there it WASN’T? The parking lot was EMPTY so they went to the city clerk and she said well…maybe by 2020 they would be able to ‘open up’ again? And THEN Koback said ‘maybe’ this was a problem so the NEXT election they would really ‘look into it’? LYING MOFOs…and then they are OUTRAGED I tell you that they are called out…

"‘That’s an outrageous accusation,’ Kobach said, [faking] openmouthed [in] indignation.

Trouble is that this convinces no one. Gaulleiter Kobach gets to spew his fascist drivel and protest that he is only seeking to stop rampant in-person voter fraud, while Toobin pontificates to the converted.

A better way to deal with this would have been for Toobin to point out to the Gauleiter that in-person fraud is expensive, cumbersome and inefficient, that a far better way to attack the integrity of an election would be by hacking the vulnerable systems that the Gauleiter, himself, is in charge of.

Exactly

Each and every time they should be put on the spot to defend their positions. It only will take a few moments to have them huffing and puffing in indignation. Nothing of any substance will be heard. Hopefully we will find them slinking back to the trash heap they crawled from.

This isn’t a particularly substantive comment, but in the headline photo, Kobach is running at least an 8 on a scale of zero to Trump for hilariously obvious spray-tan goggles.

Aping his dumbass overlord still won’t get that brown nose clean.

“ this phony voter suppression commission that was such a preposterous joke established by the President that it disbanded because it couldn’t prove your claim that voter fraud is a problem in this country,”

Bravo, Bravo, Bravo Toobin.

Also, encore.

The Independent in that race has to get out. That is the only reason it is close.
