Election Truthers Learn A Lesson From ‘Stalin’ As They Look Toward November - TPM – Talking Points Memo

So basically their masturbation fantasies of a stolen election come true with them openly committing election fraud knowing that the people they illegally install will be so grateful none of us will ever have to worry our silly little heads about voting ever again. Great, got it.

Hubby and I have signed up to be election workers this year and will begin on March 19. We all have to do our part in such an important election!

It was Albert Einstein who quoted Abe Lincoln saying, “Sooner or later, all quotes get attributed to Stalin, Churchill or Mark Twain.”

Number four of their eight-step guide reads, “If you found the results of the 2020 elections dubious, you’re not alone. We are actively vetting and enrolling election judges to make sure that every vote counts. ‘Those who vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote, do’, -Joseph Stalin.”

I work elections, counting absentee ballots. I have a t-shirt (that I made) with (essentially) this quote, with a picture of Stalin above it.

IIRC, a senator (Schumer?) said this on the floor and some Republican accused him of quoting Stalin. He corrected him – it’s a quote from a Tom Stoppard play. (https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/18209-it-s-not-the-voting-that-s-democracy-it-s-the-counting)

On the bright side, being an election worker is too much like actual work, so not many Republicans will be interested in it.

Would love to know what the average age of we subscribers actually is :wink:

(Or we could now be a little closer to knowing what @castor_troy actually looks like!)

I’m sorry, could we circle back to the part where the Stalin-quoters call it the Missoula County Republican Central Committee?

No surprise that Republicans should approvingly quote what they think is a saying from Stalin. The political spectrum isn’t a straight line, it’s more doughnut shaped, hence the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. One of the GOP’s ideological enforcers told us years ago about the identity of belief that totalitarians on the right and left have:

“I’m a Leninist. Lenin wanted to destroy the state, and that’s my goal too. I want to bring everything crashing down, and destroy all of today’s establishment."
