it's not only the Democrats but also the electorate. if people don't stop this shit with votes, there's not much Democrats in Congress can do about it and as long as the purity ponies throw hissy fits every election, we'll stay screwed.

Sure, Donnie. Let's create a federal election system, create a new agency with a gazillion dollar budget, and issue a federal photo id to everybody. Of course, your wingnut base will absolutely love giving some additional info to the feds and local repubs will be thrilled to give up paid and unpaid poll official positions.

You know how to completely end voter fraud? Automatic voter registration. Register EVERYBODY.

Of course, that would mean the republican party as it is would cease to exist, so that'll NEVER work.

"I...have asked the Department of Homeland Security to review these issues and determine next courses of action."

Not a lot that DHS can do, Donnie. Elections are State jurisdictions.

The Trumps don't have much experience with voting.

A demagogue is not a populist.

Whatever happened to states rights that the GOP likes to scream about? They always complain voting should be left to the states.

I'd have more respect for these people if they would just come out and say "We want to keep black and brown people from voting."

Actually, no I wouldn't. But at least my eyes wouldn't be strained from rolling them so hard at the hypocrisy.

I call them the fucking Herbal Tea Party. They're killing us with their damned purity bs.

Any Democrat winning any race anywhere is "evidence" of voter fraud. Apparently.

What they really mean is that voting -- and especially vote counting -- should be left to the GOP.

I read that for a moment as "biometrics, then I have to personally touch them."
