Someone Tell Kemp Showing An ID For Delta Flight Is Not The Same Thing As His Strict Voter ID Law | Talking Points Memo

“Frankly I’m getting sick and tired of these corporations that are happy to come to us to ask for fuel tax credits or subsidies to build plants and they’ll come back around and be hyper partisan,” state Rep. Philip Singleton (R).

He does realize that Delta is his state’s largest employer and if he pisses them off too much and they move to North Carolina (Charlotte would love to have the hub) or some other state Georgia will become Alabama East.

Folks, on behalf of many, I am really very sorry for foisting this thick-headed governor into your consciousness. I tried to avoid making Georgia look dumb with my vote for Stacey Abrams. Alas! Mea culpa (I reckon.)

Forget Ron if Kemp hasn’t learned the lesson from 2018 then he just too dumb to be a state leader.

Delta should place all R GA reps, the Governor and SOS on an Enemies of democracy no-fly list.

Delta: Don’t like our politics bitches, then stay the fuck off our planes.

Look, if you have to pass an iris, palm print and blood sample scan to get into the WH Sit Room, you should be able to pass a simple 500 question exam to be able to use the bathroom while standing in line for 12 hours to vote.

Sheesh, you libtrads are so delicate.

Kemp to CEOs: How how dare you point out that Georgia Republicans are rat-f’ing the public. How can I put this tactfully? Oh, yeah, Santa can’t deliver more nice gifts if Santa loses his job. Get it?

If Kemp and the GA Legislature think IDs are so important, why not a requirement that they have to personally show them before for voting on/signing bills?

How do we know the real Brian Kemp signed this bill?

Under GA logic, unless Kemp and the state GOP can prove that they are who they say they are, we can’t assume that the legally correct people voted on or signed this bill.

And clearly intended to support a plan to make lines even longer and waiting in line an extended, intolerable ordeal.

Whatever happened to that? Was it only for one year? They want to do it again, and I thought one house in the legislature already passed it.

Did this bill make it illegal for residential communities to take the elderly and disabled all together to the polls by buses?

I remember there were cases of cops stopping buses from going to the polls, so does this codify that?
