(11,686 posts)6. Repiggies know that and tossing cases at courts now to create havoc
The Rs know it sows confusion and distrust. I don't think the Conservative Judges are complicit its just the Cons are playing every gambit they can think of to cause trouble. The flood of Blue needs to be high, wide and long. Wipe out the corruption and save the country AGAIN!
