Midnight Meme Of The Day!

In keeping with the president's intense psychopathology, the Trump owned and operated "Supreme" Court chose illness and death over the Constitutional right to vote for untold numbers of Wisconsin citizens earlier this week when they decreed from on high that there would be no extension of voting time, due to the pandemic, for citizens to get, fill out, and send in absentee ballots. Many voters who had asked for the absentee ballots literally didn't receive their ballots in time due to pandemic-caused postal delays. The result of all of this will be, of course, ballots being tossed in the garbage by state election officials and voters waiting in line as huddled masses, some infectious, some not, and all soon to be if they risked their health by voting. This is not unlike Trump urging Americans to pack their churches of Easter. The more sickness and death the merrier, no matter what your party affiliation. Make your judges and your president happy; get sick and die.

In short, Republicans, for whatever reasons, always seem to have an advantage that goes up as the number of actual voters goes down. It's the turnout wars and this decision to not extend the absentee ballot deadline will be a template for increased voter suppression across the country this year. It's a particularly brazen addition to the Republican Party's smorgasbord of voter suppression. It's taking advantage. It's evil. It's cynical. It's who they are. In this case, the scheming particularly affects urban African-Americans and Latinos who have suffered a deliberate decrease in polling locations in order to discourage voters with extra long lines at the locations which remain. The scheme also targets elderly voters in Wisconsin who, like African-Americans and Latinos, tend to vote for Democratic Party candidates. In addition, of course, the elderly are particularly more susceptible to the ravages of the coronavirus as are African-Americans and Latinos who live in densely packed urban neighborhoods. It's all part of the Republican Party grand strategy, and don't think for a second that dirtbags like "Justice" John Roberts (special thanks to Chucky Schumer) and Donald Trump haven't rubbed their hands in glee about it.
