Should Dems explore criminalizing manufactured scandals meant to sway elections? [View all]
The GOP's baseless bullshit against Hunter Biden.
The GOP's baseless swiftboating of John Kerry.
The GOP's baseless Benghazi of Hillary.
Whitewater.
The Trump and GOP-led extremely racist Obama birth certificate so-called scandal.
I could go on and on with these bullshit, made-up, fake scandals.
........................................................
All of those scandals produced nothing. NO indictments. No credible evidence of any wrong-doing or any law-breaking.
The GOP has wasted billions creating fake political scandals and then investigating them, only to end with zero results. No indictments, no evidence of law-breaking.
Pure bullshit meant to sway elections in favor of GOP candidates and assassinate the character of Dem candidates.
It is a pure attempt to sway elections and is a twisted tactic that wanders into the territory of voter tampering.
GOP fake scandals are voter tampering.

I admit, I'm not a legal mind. Would this legislation survive court challenges? Is it worth pursuing?
Fake scandals that produce nothing when it is clear that the outcome is meant to damage a political rival should be viewed as a blatant attempt at voter tampering.
And thus, criminalized with SEVERE penalties.
I'm 49 years old and that's my opinion based on a lifetime of watching the GOP pull this bullshit relentlessly ever since Nixon then Ray-gun, Bush, Mccain, Romney, and now Trump.
Attempting to sway the vote through voter tampering should be a federal high crime.
I will fight for this until the day I fucking die.
Remember, the GOP investigated these so-called scandals down to the bare bones. They've wasted billions of taxpayer dollars and produced nothing in return.
Lock them up.
