Republicans in Wayne County MI have poisoned the well for Republicans in Detroit.
Those poll workers were pissed at what the Republicans tried to do - all to appease Trump and a clearly racist move.
Hopefully this will increase turnout into the future. This should not be forgotten.

1. And they were so obvious about their racism-
So emboldened to reverse the absolute right of black people to vote.

2. I just hope voters in Georgia remember this, and turn out for the senate elections in droves.
We have always known that democrats need to have twice the voters to get half as many wins, but this is getting so far out of hand. Between Lindsay Graham and these yahoos in Detroit, we really need to make some rules for the entire country.

5. Just for clarity's sake, the Yahoos were from the suburbs.

3. I think it was Joy Reid who last night said "The mask is off..."
This was indisputably pure racism. Right in America's face.
I'm not really sure if, in my lifetime, I've ever seen anything so bold by public officials. This seems like something from the 1950s or 60s. Stuff I've only read about. They weren't trying to "sneak" something through. It was so blatant. It felt to me like what it might have been like to watch cops block the way of little black kids trying to go to school. It was repulsive. |
