Why did GOP vote for Juneteenth? I'm suspicious.

[Dream Girl]

Perhaps to forestall an Election Day holiday down the road?

1. They have some scheme in mind

You can count on it.

[Ocelot II]

2. So they can pretend they aren't racist when they oppose voting rights legislation.

[AZSkiffyGeek]

4. This!

“See, I’m not racist, I gave you a holiday!”

15. +1

3. Sneaky untrustworthy connivers with ulterior motives.

[RockRaven]

5. The "I'm not racist, I have a black friend" foil to their Critical Race Theory/voter fraud bogeymen

[hatrack]

11. This.

Precisely this.

[TomSlick]

6. It's not hard.

Give white folks a day-off (or holiday pay) while denying black people the vote - a win/win if you're a Trumper.

7. June 14th is trumps birthday. They will celebrate that instead.

Dicks that they like to be.

[Ka-Dinh Oy]

8. Another excuse for a paid day off.

9. An Election Day holiday would greatly increase voting access. The GOP

is desperately trying to limit access to the polls.

Anything that would enable many more working folks to cast ballots would practically guarantee minoriity status for the GOP.

10. Matt Gaetz did, too, but only because he thought Juneteenth legalized underage dating.

14. hahahahaha

Stealing

[Brother Buzz]

16. DUzy worthy!

[bearsfootball516]

12. I don't think it's anything particularly devious.

Other than it would be bad PR to vote against a holiday celebrating the end of slavery.

[hatrack]

13. And 14 of these assclowns STILL wouldn't vote for it . . .
