The top Republican in the Michigan state Senate recently previewed the GOP strategy to enact new voting restrictions in the state by circumventing Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s (D) veto pen.
Why do Rethugs hate democracy sooooo much. They must hate America as well, don’t you think?

I have a strategy for you also n00b…take a long walk in the city of Flint after dark. Becuz we all know you ain’t able to go fuck yourself.
The 8% Solution. Sherlock Holmes would be proud, though not a Proud Boy
Shorter GOP: “If you can’t win 'em, STEAL 'em!”
The 15th Amendment sucks.
Everyone agrees.
Dems should start their own citizens initiative for “Election Integrity” replete with everything that worked in the last election to make it secure and easy to vote. Let’s see which initiative gets the most votes.
Jerry Nadler is exploring the possibility of asking about the formation of a committee to consider a panel to review your suggestion.
“We’re gonna call it the ‘Keep Detroit and Flint From Voting Initiative’, so keep an eye out!”
Right?! I feel like I’m missing something because that seems like a really easy solution to all of this and yet I’ve heard nothing to indicate that’s the plan.
But we don’t want to do that without bipartisanship.
Man, these white male mediocrities, they really don’t like not having their way and seem to actually believe they’re entitled to having it, because white, male and yeah. I’d love to see the expression on their faces when they finally get that they’re NOT SPECIAL and NEVER WERE. I’ve met too many to not know the type. So pathetic.
True. Then there’s the problem of AOC insisting on calling it the Che Guevara Act.
What they mostly hate is losing.
Simple: They hate democracy because democracy means they lose if they don’t get the majority of votes. So democracy stinks because it might result in them losing. And they know that they’re always right and their opponents are always wrong. So out with democracy.
Yep and being willing to lose is baked into the system and is therefore, baseline American. And being able to deal with losing is part of being that much hagiographied American - the entrepeneur.
Not being able to lose is something that 3 year olds are really the best at.
Well, yes. This is not a new way of looking at the world–I believe this is the same line that 19th Century Popes took in opposition to democracy–“there is no right to be wrong.” But at least the Popes were open about their position.
Well, they ran a guy for president who was essentially an infant and he won and they totally learned the wrong lesson from that. Of course their whole worldview is built on wrong conclusions so yeah that makes sense.
Without fixing for voting rights the rigged system will be rigged further.
Without the above we will have representatives of 25% of the population ruling the other 75%.
Worse still, Blue States are footing the bill.
And saddest of all, the Blue states are happy to cover more than our share.
Yeah or they wouldn’t be where they are - forced to cheat to win since the majority of Americans really doesn’t like them.
