The stench of desperation on the republican party is worse than the smoke from these wildfires.
They are silencing the vote while claiming Trump is doing it😂
@USASTEEL USASTEEL When people mention riots they are just deflecting.
The theatrical term is “flop sweat.” Let’s keep praying, meditating, wishing upon a star . . .as the Raven now says, “Whatever.”
Looooool did anyone else come from the hill’s coverage of this? Lmao DNC refuses to take any responsibility if they lose. Trump’s a fool, as is much of the RNC, but you seriously think they’re sabatoging you via the Green Party? I don’t know whether to laugh or roar. You are the exact same clown as trump, you both want to find as many scapegoats as possible if you lose.
Trump: Mail in voting unsteadiness, illegal immigrants, voter fraud, blablabla
Dems: Green Party, Kanye, Bernie bros, racists, blablabla
Lmfao.
A VOTE FOR A THIRD PARTY IS A VOTE FOR TRUMP.
The Republican Party is no longer a political party/movement. It’s a criminal organization
@Anarchist Zero that’s very sad that you’re proud that you have absolutely no brain or conscience.
@REAL BLACKS KNOW THE TRUTH Really? Are or were you an Atheist? I don’t feel insecure. — #logicalfallacies & #Falsifiability 😐
@Anarchist Zero you’re the one who typed atheism I didn’t do you remember what you just typed a hour ago?… Maybe you should stop smoking weed your memory is lapsing
@Anarchist Zero and I took a screenshot of it just in case you choose to delete it
GOP is gone. It’s the GOT = Gang Of Trump.
Now you post office workers, kick a$$ like your life depends on it and get that mail to the voters! You are the essential workers! Save America!
@The Doctor 🍆😯🍆😯🍆😯🖕
LATINOS FOR BIDEN2020.
@Holdyour Plums good one! Or we can wear purple and vote blue, straight across the board!
@xjaskix suxdix for putin
@K Y ally quit cryin ! Troll you dont even have ballots .
Voter suppression is alive and well wake up folks, it’s in your best interest that you vote with what’s best for the country.
it is the solemn duty of all democrats to vote as many times as possible to offset those terrible republicans, like the one that hides under my bed at night.
Mash-Ka-De Bhezhekii seems like the vote for the Green Party has been thoroughly suppressed. Hopefully it’ll still be on the in person ballot.
Yah…vote for the ones not burning down the country and calling every white person racist 🧐….seems a simple choice lol
@shane You should be A shaned of your support for Nazi loving trump.
They are suppressing the Green Party voters!!
Nice job supreme court of Wisconsin looking out for democracy because the alternative is more chaos, high national debt, and a liar president.
By suppressing the Green Party and their voters?
You literally just set everyone up as hypocrites and doing EXACTLY what you claim Republicans do. You’re worse at it and THAT’S going to backfire on all of us
CaliforniaCheez Yes, because I’m sure the Supreme Court knocked it down on the legal grounds of voter suppression 🙄 give me a break. Wisconsin is notoriously republican so if even these courts knocked it down? The “law & order president”s got you all having contempt for the ACTUAL LAW
No one is suppressing the green party , there was a deadline for registering if you wznt to run for the lectionary, and is long gone ,this is just a stunt by republ8cans as usual trying to cheat to winas always.
Voter suppression is part of Democracy. Got it.
Kanye West, meet Jill Stein!
These crooks at the green party and gop are Russia’s useful idiots
WHAT THE PHUCK ARE THESE ” GREEN PARTY PERSONS” DOING??
Again, the failing and desperate Trump campaign will resort to CHEATING and DIRTY tactics to swing an election. Why am I not surprised?
Melissa Sullivan bit it was from your communist rag called the NYTimes. How could you deny your own propaganda machine?
You are aware of who Trump’s opponent is… right?
30years2late the plagiarizing king? This guy has stolen more intellectual property than China. Sleepy Joe Biden.
@mik3ymomo Melissa described the contents of the article quite accurately. Don’t blame them for your failing to understand what is written.
💙❣💓💙😘
So now the GOP is scratching their heads thinking, “Why didn’t we hire a Green party candidate?” Good luck with that Kayne West thing.
Its still a crime by federal election law to collude with other party presidential campaign … both should be disqualified .
Deathsentence both, like traitors to the people.
@USASTEEL USASTEEL As long as they destroy YOUR portion of America, I’m OK with that. It’s not like you have done anything to help the problem.
@Eric Zommer so maybe I misunderstood.. you are against the Democratic candidates supporting destroying cities all over our country just as I am..
They DID. Green Party is GOPs secret weapon only comes out in election years that look too close to call 👀 & always help GOP win by splitting votes
Republicans were helping both the GREEN PARTY AND KANYE WEST IN WISCONSIN
BOTH FAILED
@Sim Simma you are both the party of climate change. Acknowledging that humans cause climate change while simultaneously denying the UN climate science panels recommendations on what steps we need to take, doesn’t make you any better than the GOP. Your party opposes the Green New Deal because they are corrupt grifters, who take just as much money from the fossil fuel industry as the GOP. The base is nothing but blue MAGA who don’t give a s**t either. That’s why there is no opposition when half the convention is Republican war lords endorsing your candidate- you’re one big party.
@NotAWine Mom did you even read OP’s statement?
@NotAWine Mom you make no sense at all.
@NotAWine Mom ohhh sorry you are a paid troll. Carry on
@Eric Vercruyssen What troll farm do you work for? Capitol Waterfront Group in DC?! Does Sally Albright pay you or David Brock?! You people are cringey AF. You literally do everything you accuse the Russians & Republicans of doing. Troll farms, voter suppression during primaries, now voter suppression during the general election too. Gross AF. How about the Libertarian party? Are you going to cancel them? Or is the nearly 5 million votes Gary Johnson took in 2016 not a problem? You aren’t entitled to the votes of the left. If Biden loses, you have NO ONE LEFT TO BLAME BUT YOURSELVES & YOUR REPUBLICAN-LITE NOMINEE.
The dude’s a f****** gangster I don’t get it the only American that can’t get caught
Your election system is broken if some party even thinks of trying such scams.
Correction they are trying to break the voting system using judicial system but failed.
You the thought police now? Everything is broken if someone thinks of doing something? I enjoy your ignorance to reality.
@mik3ymomo If a party believes that they are gaining something by trying to cheat, you have a huge problem.
Apparently they are not affraid of the consequences of such a behavor.
I am from Europe and in my country such an attempt would instantly end the political carrier of anyone who attempts something like this.
😘🔴👌💋💖
I wish she would put pictures and names up of the people involved when she reports these stories. Like give these justices the attention they deserve.
The Republicans are desperate, like a cornered animal. I grew up being warned those are the most dangerous. #helied#heliedpeopledied
Donald was right, the election is rigged. By him.
By the GOP, *for* him.
Republicans have also assisted crazy Kanye West to get on the ballot in order to split the non-Trump voters.
That’s where some of that 1 billion went and other situations just like it. That’s why the Republicans are broke
How r u not enrage that the democrats are targeting 3rd partys just becuz people want to use their democracy to vote for candidates they like instead of being pressured to vote for 2 old Racist the liberatian party is on all statesu don’t hear the repubs claiming becuz people actually like trump Biden voters r voting out of fear even if u pulled a dictator move and made all 3rd partys disappear I and many like me would just stay home most of the country doesn’t vote so ur attacking the view that do I’m voting for policy joe has to get my vote his just as racist as trump both of them have to promise me something to get my vote
The entire thing was by design, to introduce a delay.
They have been doing this way before Trump got in office
