While Florida generally makes it challenging for people in the state with felony convictions to regain their voting rights, former President Donald Trump had no issue casting a ballot for himself Tuesday in Palm Beach.
If felons should be allowed to vote, I don’t think it’s worth carving out an exemption for one particular felon. His vote is a drop in the bucket anyway.
What’s more important is that this felon should not be allowed to run for office.
It’s not an exemption for one person if you say that a felony related to undermining an election stops you from being able to vote. I think that’s fair enough.

We are all just drops in the bucket on this blessed day.
That truly is the crux of the issue.
If the people want a felon, give them a felon.
