    Did I just hear right? The old guy said “He didn’t know the candidates just for the president” Doesn’t sound sound particularly like a Democrat

    I don’t here any “Bribery” but it is a big push to vote

    Promising anything for a vote is a federal crime.

    Did you even watch that video? I did

    I could not see where they were bribing people to vote for any particular candidate? Even the Biden people were not saying “We will give you stickers and masks if you vote for Biden”.

    Give me a time mark on the video where it backs your assertions in the OP

    This is a private person encouraging get-up-the vote in a private property, and as long it is nonpartisan, giving swag and "I voted" t-shirts are fine. Usually just a sticker that says "I voted", but that qualifies too.


    Feel free to wear a I REPUBLICAN while large numbers of Native Americans die of COVID at any Native American election you or Trump wish to vote at!

    In the meantime, your claims of "bribery and illegalism" by these private citizens are possibly slander. Maybe you want to check your personal liability insurance is all paid up?

    With all this cheating by dems we now know how Hillary got the "popular vote " in 2016. She was very popular amongst dead people.

    Fake. All lies by the TW echo chamber.

    But let me get this right. You think it is wrong to make a payment to someone just before an election to help you get elected? Does Stormy Daniels ring any bells?

    If there is even an ounce of truth to this story, don’t worry about this. Biden can follow dirty donny’s precedent. Call any investigation a hoax then pardon the people involved.

    You are dodging the request to post where on that video it shows what you are claiming

    Now that trump is gone, yes we can!
    And I guess you conveniently forgot that trump was ladling out $200 to each senior so they would vote for him.
    Talk about embarrassing irony, eh?

    Rather than reply with silly cartoons how about you articulate why people should not be encouraged to vote in a democracy?

    Ironically, your use of the word “encouraged” flies right in the face of democracy. But thankfully we don’t live in a democracy but a republic so...

    Democracy is the ideology you practice in your form of government which is a Republic, good to educate people in what words mean in a democracy so that they understand basic political principles and do not make fools of themselves!
    Now what is wrong with encouraging people to vote in a form of government that is a Republic that bides by the ideology of democracy?

    do a search for google, many offer discounts and free stuff if you prove you voted, it's legal if they offer it to everyone, regardless how they vote

    if they said only Trump voters get the discount or free stuff, then they would be in trouble

    there was already a thread on this and this has already been debunked

    Trump promised them the $200 cards, but this is Trump, they will probably never get them

    and republican will say it's ok because he never gave it to them, so he never broke the law

    I never went to a trump rally, but did he give out MAGA hats and t shirts for free? Or American flags? Or signs?

    Or did people have to pay to buy all that stuff?

    Well, you fell for the meme, anyway.

    It’s one of the oldest racist memes in the book. This one is freshened up with misleading video, and the ethnic group was changed (usually this fake trope is used to denigrate blacks).

    Indeed, another version of this trope had Kamala Harris giving every black woman $2000 to have a baby. That’s an old one, too. Ronald Reagan could have told you about that one!

    One of the signs that Trump was going to lose was the premature deployment of memes like this.

    They get deployed in every election.

    I am old enough to recall right wingers making up similar claims about Jimmy Carter, Walther Mondale and Bill Clinton. It happens every four years.

    And the same audience falls for it and goes around repeating it every four years.

    It’s a meme beloved by bigots, and nurtured and recycled every four years.

    Trump ran on bigotry and race baiting. It was the core theme of his 2020 campaign, even down to the point of ordering up a riot so he could walk through his own tear gas waving a bible.

    That was tailor made for the suckers who fall for memes like this.

    If that actually happened you could have an argument. That never happened so you have at best an unsubstantiated accusation.

    No proof so you accusations GO POOF,
