A profoundly cynical strategy has informed Republican campaigning and policymaking for at least four decades: break the government, and then point to its brokenness to undermine the public’s trust that government can ever help.

Trump could have gotten an infrastructure bill done. He had the votes.
But here’s the thing: Republicans don���t believe in governing.

Never in the white district where I live now but did where I used to live, on the other side of town that is majority black. They have since consolidated three polling places into one on the majority black side, so has gotten even worse there.

This is an “altar call” from evangelical churches. In the church it’s meant to commit your life to Christ.
Here they’re committing their souls to Trump.
In 2017, an election in VA was tied and the Democrat lost by a coin flip. One more Dem voter would have flipped the VA legislature blue. Every vote counts!

Thank you for posting.People who don’t understand/believe the disparities need to hear from people like you- sadly. Same as had GOPrs reported pressure from tRUMP to lie and break laws & principles WHEN IT HAPPENED, so many people would not have believed the lie.
@IamRemoWilliams
He clearly states that he doesn't "want" his daughters to grow up to be "career-obsessed" but DOES WANT them to have home-based businesses and live in homes with 'good husbands' which is code for not independent. He's not saying 'women CEOs are fine too'.
All the people wondering how this happened better take a look at their own prejudices.

I want it known that I will NEVER BE FINE if tRUMP IS NOT PROSECUTED. Many US problems stem from failing to prosecute Nixon. And if you think the people didn’t want Nixon prosecuted why do you think we voted out Gerald Ford?

You're assuming the police are always correct / people believe the police. A very American bias. The cat's out of the bag on broadcasting. Everyone with a cell phone at the event told everyone they knew and the world the instant it started:apparently before shots were even fired

True!
I've never known a person less Christ-like than Trump.
He cares only about himself.
He'd happily let us all die just to get re-elected.
He's never done ONE thing in his life that didn't benefit him.
He is EVIL incarnate.
