States rights!
Civil War! Depending on who's on the court, one could argue that the Constution allows the feds to make the rules-Fostr v Love

Article I, Section 4, Clause 1:

The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators.

So essentially you think 60 million Americans are racists?  Or that every member of Trump's past cabinet is a racist?  Has Joe Biden ever said anything racist?

In all honesty, I'd be surprised if only 60-million Americans are racist, but it depends on what one calls racist.

Everyone has biases, most have said/done something they likely regret because of these biases. That is one reason I'm against cancel culture, because if one thinks they've never done or said something regrettable (based on biases), they are likely ignorant of their own biases.

Where I'd call one racist is when it doesn't bother them that they have acted on these biases, and it doesn't bother them where others blatantly use racist language, or regularly act on their own perceived biases. There are too many politicians that openly act on their perceived biases, and have absolutely no problem with others using racist language and acting on biases, and way too many voters that are also not bothered by any of it. Call that what you will.

Said it better than most here (including me) could have. Well done.

People  having prejudices isn't the same thing as 60 mill being racists.  If that's the criteria, we're all racists.

Funny thing about that....

https://www.usnews.com/news/national-news/articles/2018-01-10/trump-commision-on-election-integrity-found-no-evidence-of-voter-fraud

Yep. And after "fraudits" conducted in Wisconsin and Arizona by Trump-affiliated groups, their hero actually ended up losing by MORE in those states.

Convicted J. Felon asked them to find more votes, and they did ... for Biden.

But why are we bothering? Marquette-educated dentists learned this equation:

If true - how incredibly dumb.

Chief Financial Officer Of Multinational Media Company Charged With Participating In Scheme To Launder At Least $67 Million In Fraud Proceeds
https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/chief-financial-officer-multinational-media-company-charged-participating-scheme

Surprise, surprise, the Epoch Times, that fine publication that states that Donald Trump is a literal angel sent from heaven, has engaged in just a wee but of fraud, stealing people's unemployment and other payments to the tune of $67M.

Take heart, Douchey, you still have the Pizzagate guy!

You forgot the crime boss himself ... though I guess that was too obvious.

If Biden is behind all this - "weaponizing" the Justice Dept to go after Convicted J. Felon and his gang of criminals - why doesn't he weaponize it so that Hunter isn't on trial?

We all damn well know that if Turd Jr. was caught illegally buying a gun when he was on one of his cocaine binges 4-5-6 years ago, Convicted J. Felon would have made sure a trial never would have happened. (Might not have done the same for Eric, though.)

Keep in mind, many of these people were indicted during the Trump Administration.

With the long list of convicted criminals associated with DJT, I am sure you are expecting a Biden landslide. It would almost not be believable if Biden took the L in November. It must be nice to be a D and just waiting to see how big the landslide is going to be.

Pot-stirring? That's OK, Goose. I'll even play serious.

I expect no Biden landslide; I'll be pleasantly surprised if Convicted J. Felon loses even by one vote.

The leader of the New GOP is the greatest con man in the history of con men. He will get tens of millions of cultists to side with him again. He literally could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and not lose any support from his gullible masses, as he bragged. Probably the only thing he didn't lie about.

There's never been anything like it in history.

American history, anyway. It did happen in Germany, Italy, Japan, etc.
