"A Maryland Republican who leads a right-wing coalition in Congress says North Carolina’s legislature should consider awarding Electoral College votes to former President Donald Trump before citizens’ votes are counted, according to Politico.
Rep. Andy Harris, the chairman of the Freedom Caucus, made the comments at a dinner on Thursday, saying the idea “makes a lot of sense” because the western part of the state, a rural area where Trump is popular, is still dealing with the impact of Hurricane Helene."
“It’s profoundly antidemocratic to take the right to vote for president away from the people,” said Justin Levitt, a professor at Loyola Law School who worked for the Department of Justice under Barack Obama and as a voting rights advisor for Joe Biden. “It seems like an idea prompted by panic, rather than allowing the people to express their voice.”
There’s no panic. It’s just an opportunistic lie to remove any chance of Harris winning. Cause they’re fucking liars and cheaters.
The number of people still giving the fascists benefit of the doubt when they should fucking know better is too damn high!
Even suggesting this should mean he never works in politics again as it is clearly illegal and against the will of the people. But we know that’s never gonna fucking happen since the Republicans love to ignore our electoral structure when they don’t like it.
And I want to retire at 38 and marry Aubrey Plaza. Fuck off, clown.
This is the kind of shit the 2nd amendment was written for
I mean we could take the honest route and try to give people there ways to vote even with the conditions they’re in…or we can just use them as a crisis for political gain. Which would a Republican do? Oh, I see.
Give everybody mail in ballots and drop boxes so all votes get counted…
Oh, wait…
Just have to watch the drop boxes to make sure no one lights them on fire.
Ooh, they’re scared.
Subverting the will of the people “makes a lot of sense” says fascist from another state.
Fuck. No.
This is so absurd I can’t even be witty about it.
RIP satire. :(
