Gawd, that was awful. Ramble, ramble, ramble. Still hasn't answered half the questions... No wonder we are in the state we are in. Chinese and Russians had to be popping champagne watching that press conference. No one there to pull the plug....

He was talking about States like GA who removed control of elections from the SEC of State and Gave it to themselves to determine the outcome of the election
Funny you never asked why would GA change it’s voting laws ? that they they selfs approved prior to the 2020 election?
But we all know why because Trump lost and the Sec of state would not find the votes Trump wanted him to find
But now the legislature can….
You do live in an amazing bubble where critical thinking isn’t a priority
Or how about Texas where a county of a million voters get the same amount of drop boxes 1 and the same amount of early voting hours as a county with 60 people
It screams voter suppression not election integrity

the current GA voting laws allow for more days of early voting than biden’s home state of DE, and allow for easier access to absentee ballots than places like NY. those are facts. So i’m not sure the Klan is running the show there.
But we all knew what you’d say, what Biden did was not only OK, but heroic!!
i assume
the state changes its laws for the same exact reason the democrats in DC want to set laws for all
states - to help themselves stay in power.
but again, as always, that motive is only problematic to you, when republicans do it. funny, when the democrats rats were in the senate minority, the filibuster was VITAL. now all of a sudden, its racist.
did you ever ask yourself why it’s ok for the democrats to use the fillibuster hundreds of times in a year, but NOW they want to abolish it?
no you didn’t.

Wow it’s amazing you avoided the real reason it was changed imagine That and you go right to the Delaware example as if it actually is apples to apples. More. Whataboutism
Get back to me when Delaware change their laws because a candidate loses an election ..

No according to Jim and his comrades everyone can vote as easily as everyone else and nothing you say will sway their opinion.
Hey Mitch McConnell responded to a reporters question stating “Well, the concern is misplaced, because if you look at the statistics, African-American voters are voting in just as high a percentage as Americans,” boy if that doesn't say exactly what the rights agenda is; suppressing the votes they need to in order to stay in power or win seats lost. A little slip of the tongue, not quite American enough for them.

just show me evidence that the Ga law suppressed votes. shouldn’t be hard. again, the GA law slows more days of early voting then Biden’s home state of DE, and allows easier access to absentee ballots than. any blue states. so it’s not clear to me that the Klan came up with that law.
here in CT, two governors races in a row, they mysteriously ran out of ballots in bridgeport and hartford ( who knew you need ballots on election day?), so polls stayed open in those two cities ( where 99% of the vote is democrat) for hours longer than the designated close of 8 pm. and wouldn’t you know it, by a stunning coincidence, the democrats won two close races.

you must be talking about 2010
your comment lacks context.
Bport has 69K voters, they ordered 21K ballots. Recommendation is to order 1 ballot per voter. I Only the people in line (and who arrived before 8) at the time they ran out of ballots where allowed to vote. Not all precincts ran out of ballots so only the precinct where they ran out ballots had the hours extended. A Republican elections official suggested they go home until ballots arrived, he said even though that would disqualified those voters.
Was it a surprise that heavily D Bport voted D in that election?

happened in two consecutive governors races. funny, they had enough ballots in the conservative districts. two elections in a row, they ran out of ballots in democrat districts. just a coincidence.

wrong. they did not turn away buyers who showed up late, who weren’t in line earlier. had they done that, there’s be zero reason to gripe. they a. ounces early that those stations would be open late, then spread the word.
well it worked out for the best as Malloy has eliminated our debt and cut taxes and made us more competitive.

Maybe if so much of our taxes wasn't being transferred to those failed R states (think Mitch McConnell's Kent) our taxes would be much less.

Trump’s false or misleading claims total 30,573 over 4 years
The biggest being the election was stolen
But the NYPOST lol
And this is your example having had a house burn down with my wife in it — she got out safely, God willing.” In fact, the Associated Press reports, it was a minor kitchen fire,
Or I drove an 18 wheeler but it was a school bus again the horror
It’s odd once , again Jim you suddenly take hyperbole as serious
Even when there’s some truth, he exaggerates — as when he chats with Gold Star families about his late son Beau as if he’d died in action, rather than of brain cancer.
Wow how horrible of a person
Yet Trump blames gold star family for catching Covid
Or telling another Trump told her "that 'he knew what he signed up for, but it hurts anyways,'
Or his response to the Khan criticism
If you look at his wife, she was standing there. She had nothing to say. She probably — maybe she wasn't allowed to have anything to say. You tell me implying a connection between her silence and gender roles in Islam:
Like I said you love to suggest others are partisans hacks , while your the worse offender on this site.. another conservatives tactic

wdmso: there’s no evidence biden lied.
jim: here are some of his biggest whoppers.
wdmso: trump lied more.
Thing is wayne, i hadn’t denied that trump is a liar. You denied biden s a liar.
wdmso, can you admit Biden, like most prominent politicians, is a liar?
funny, you focused on what you thought were benign lies, and you ignored the bigger lies about being arrested during civil
rights marches,,about winning a showdown with a chain-wielding drug kingpin named Corn Pop. You ignore his well documented plagiarism.
You have nothing to say about any of that? stick your fingers in your ears and yell “la la la”.
you criticize teump for saying a last election was stolen. but you give Biden a pass for saying a future election is about to get stolen, unless congress passes legislation that gives him more power.
you think it’s normal to not be able to distinguish between a school bus and an 18 wheeler?
