Trump on Monday declared that the Republican Party should “nationalize the voting” in the US and take away individual states’ power to administer their elections.

While speaking with Dan Bongino, a former FBI deputy director and current podcaster, Trump rehashed the false allegations he’s made in the past about Democrats only winning elections through the help of undocumented immigrants.

“These people were brought to our country to vote, and they vote illegally!” Trump falsely claimed. “Amazing that the Republicans aren’t tougher on it. The Republicans should say… ‘We should take over the voting in at least… 15 places.’ The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting.”

    Yeah but Kamala didn’t cater to the proletariat. That’s why we have to have this insanity every goddamned day again.

      Yeah, many of the holier-than-thou left will still bore you to tears if you give them even half the chance on how they have to immanentize the eschaton, oops, I mean, “accelerate the inherent contradictions of the capitalist system” and it’s all going to plan under Donald and/or what we “deserve” if it doesn’t work out according to Marxist theory.

      Which…if these assholes could even hear themselves, they sound exactly like the most wild-eyed of xtian zealots when they assign basically the same thing as “original sin” on millions of people (every American) that deserve to go through a literal hell here on Earth because of this imagined collective crime. It’s basically the same sort of thought process as the crazy Left Behind types that have a psychopath’s fantasy of being whisked off to their heaven while they get to watch all the people they hate tortured for eternity. It’s just directed at different people and using only slightly different language.
