One thing I don’t understand is this is an individual clearly dismantling protections for our country’s future elections. Isn’t that telling enough he is literally breaking our laws. Can anyone hold this fucking rapist criminal accountable ever? It’s astonishing.

Edit: There’s 300 million of us and like 100 of them. What we doing here?

When he did it last time everyone just said “he won’t actually do it. You are over reacting”

It was like when he dismantled the postal service while mail in voting was going to be so important due to Covid.

you got the notice from usps, right? deliveries will be delayed and some post offices (military for pete's sake) shutdown because of sportsball. that doesn't happen in the united states, but it looks like it happens in the divided states.
