"Populist juggernaut." Where does that start Steve: With armed citizens at voting locations? Filming citizens putting ballots in drop boxes? Threatening workers at polling locations? Suppressing the vote with nonsensical legislation regarding those mailing in ballots? Targeting communities with large African America/minority populations while ignoring similar violations in rural America?
We haven't even scratched the surface with silly charade of carving out safe districts and doing it solely on the basis of race. It was supposed to be illegal, but not so much any more. Gerrymandering has become the new standard, which is shameful on its face. When adding in dark money campaigning, how much of anything or anyone is real?
It almost doesn't matter what happens today because trump et al have turned this country into the proverbial shithole country he was so terrified of.
