It causes or allows a Trump presidency, a violent coup attempt, a worldwide pandemic, a massive hurricane, etc. etc., and then does a few hat trick miracles so people will think it's a benevolent deity? What a monster. A monster with very good PR. I wouldn't worship that evil POS even if it actually existed.

But claiming they do is convenient for them because it supports their goal of making Republican voters turn against fair elections.

The only way they can achieve their primary goal of turning the US into a theocracy ruled by an authoritarian government that throws out the US Constitution is to control all election results and select a president who rules by fiat.

He does what that crazy beeach wants. Why do you think he never said anything from the bench. He. Is. Corrupt. As. They. Come. The Heritage Foundation paid her (him) $700K. Unreported. WTF for? Access to the most powerful court in the country.

With the help of Moscow Mitch whose machinations actually created where the Supreme Court is.....refusing to seat an Obama Pick because it was too late in his term in Office, then rushed on through even later for Trump.

History, if we get past this period, will not be kind to this era.

any real effort of trying to reclaim our democracy. $$$$ wins. Period. People will suffer and die and nothing will get better, only worse. The greedy, hypocritical Americans (anti-Americans) will always win. Americans are dumber than dirt and will believe whatever BS they see on Social Media or Fux TV. I see no change in my lifetime. I am a realist. $$$, greed and power by men will kill us all. Unfortunately, the GQP assholes will only get worse. This is a fact. I will fight as long as I can but I have already lived 3 years longer than I was supposed to and I HATE this GQP shit. I am looking forward to death...peace finally. All of my family and friends agree too.

*****Overall American stupidity and greed is our death.
