    What fraud. No one, you included, has been able to find any credible evidence of fraud. On the other hand, there has been a ton of evidence of voter suppression in past elections and Republican controlled state houses are cranking up the suppression engines again. Now, you want to talk about that?

    An incipient tyrant, he was waiting for his second term, when he would have repealed the 22nd and laid the ground for real tyranny

    Show me the credible evidence of recent voter suppression of voters legally entitled to vote.

    Ah yes, Democrats, advocates of the dumb and common... the forgotten man, have now decided to argue on behalf of the hungry and thirsty, standing shoulder to shoulder to cast a vote and strike a blow for Democracy, in spite of the potential to actually perish in line from want of a morsel of sustenance or a sip of life giving water. Evil Republicans...how dare you deprive the common man and drive him from his station. And all to steal elections. Despicable, I tell you. No more baseball for you.
    Seriously folks, these D-people are a**es. Likewise anyone who falls for their nonsense. It astonishes me what finds traction in politics nowadays. Americans are measurably stupider by the day.

    Give us one example of voter suppression. And remember, one's own laziness and stupidity do not count as voter suppression.

    Georgia, Florida to name two. Not the only ones and not necessarily the most egregious.

    He wouldn't have the authority to repeal the 22nd or any other Amendment. That's just fear speaking.

    Nope and nope. I've voted in Florida for 48 years. Never had a problem voting. Nowadays you only need one ID to vote at the poll. And you can vote early for the preceding two weeks, as well as absentee. Polls as well are everywhere. I also just read a bit of Georgias regulations. They seem fair and equitable. In fact they are more generous than Colorado's where the MLB went with their balls and bats, all humphing and flustered like some great offense had transpired. What a bunch of asinine posers.

    I’m not sure what you’re basing your question on. According to most polls the elderly typically vote republican. That stat flies in the face of any claim that the GOP hates them. You could make the argument that the elderly are stupid for voting for republicans but then that might only be reflective of someone else’s hate for the elderly.

    Nice graph. I knew it was close but still a majority voted republican. Squaring that up with the claim the Republicans hate the elderly seems to be untenable.

    I asked for an example of voter suppression, not for the names of two states. So why don't you just admit it, you have no real example of voter suppression.

    He didn't have the authority to do lots of things but he did them anyway. Lots of Amendments have been repealed and a renewed Trump would have done this and more. Yes, that's fear speaking indeed. I thought Trump's ilk had been taken care of in 1945 and I hadn't thought this many of them were still around. Trump was and remains about the scariest figure I can remember existing in American politics.

    That's the way I felt about Nixon. I have grave concerns about Biden/Harris. They are full speed ahead on social issues but are totally inept on foreign matters. My fear is China and Russia will now expand their sphere of influence and it will come at a great cost to the USA. If he handles our relations with those two countries and throw in the Middle East, like he does the mess he has created at the southern border, we could very well be facing another 9-11 or USS Cole type incident.
