Republicans stole the election in 2000, they are just dialing it up.
Could you imagine the shitstorm if Democrats did this?
The diaper is an amazing touch!
These problems all existed as fringe coalitions before Trump came along. He just brought them to the forefront of the GOP platform because they were convenient for him and his cult instantly assimilated them.
Yeah, OP is simply ignorant. Jenny McCarthy posts are strewn through the comments, and here’s a bunch of democratic leaders talking about election results:

Trump definitely made everything more extreme, though.
The antivax crowd is not just trumpers. I’m not sure how much this has changed recently, but 10 to 20 years ago, I knew plenty of liberal college-educated suburban soccer moms who believed in that shit.

And now they’re probably Trump voters.
It’s the crunchy to alt right pipeline and unfortunately it’s real.
The problems with vaccines started with andrew wakefield. Republicans have been pushing for voter ID laws for decades.
none of this started with trump.
Wakefield was way late to the game.
This is from the 1890s.
Yeah

2024:
95% of Republicans for voter ID hasn’t changed before/after Trump
Why are democrats not as supportive of ID laws? I would assume it’s obvious you need an ID to vote, or am I missing something here?
In general, if we have universal ID’s, then it makes sense… There are a segment of the poor that just don’t have ID, and it currently adversely affects one party more than the other.
Once you require ID, then republicans start adding roadblocks and requirements that make it tougher for classes of people.
On top of all that, it is an attempt to solve a problem that doesn’t exist. Non-citizens are not attempting to vote.
This right here. It’s not a problem with voter ID. It’s a problem with getting the ID. Cost, accessibility, and prerequisites are all roadblocks. Those prerequisites all tend to be issues for the poorer people that tend to vote democrat. Right up there with refusal to make election day a holiday, making mail-in ballots a fight, reducing voting locations, making offers of water to people in long voting lines illegal…. Poorer people work maybe multiple jobs and can’t take the time off or spend time in long lines, so that’s all designed to reduce the democratic vote count.
