So, you didn't want to "go to the mat" for VOTING RIGHTS? Now you have to take what you get from

the RW fringe that McConnell-Trump-GQP throw at you.

Dems didn't ever seem to think that putting money into getting voters to the polls in state and local elections now we all are paying dearly for the snobbery of indifference to the voting poor. LIVE WITH IT!

For whatever reason, we don’t act. Are we apathetic, weary, afraid, too Kool, or in denial so deep we can’t feel the earth moving beneath us? Who knows?
