Senator Manchin: Ignoramus

Manchin is apparently sincere, but he shows his ignorance when he talks about the Senate and the founding fathers. 

In historical fact, the founders only allowed both small states and large states two senators because that was the only way to get the Constitution ratified back in 1788.

That's why Senator Manchin, who represents West Virginia, a state with a population of less than 2 million, has two senators like California, which has a population of nearly 40 million.

Importantly, the filibuster that Manchin supports is a relic of our country's racist past used by Southern senators to defeat voting rights. 

Now the filibuster is being used by the racist Republican Party to oppose voting rights and the rest of President Biden's agenda.

Requiring an ID to vote is not a voting rights issue. It’s a racist issue brought up by the democrats. Are all non whites too stupid to get an ID processed at the DMV? Or maybe we are just too dumb to even know what an ID is. So we need democrat help. A dumb “white man” calling people racist. How ironic. Your fucking lame Mr. Pork belly

You cherry-pick the ID issue, but the Texas voting law does a lot more than that to make voting harder.
See 20 things Texas Republicans' elections bill would do.

Texas voting law:

1.Limits how local officials can expand voting options. Meaning no more solicited mail in ballots, no voting at coffee shops, no more people knocking on your door on voting day with ballots asking you to fill them out and vote. You can’t keep track of ballots that way.

2. Regulating the distribution Of polling places. That way you just don’t have pop ups and boxes placed on corners no one knows about.

3. Requiring paper trails for voting. So you know who voted and how the ballot got there.

4. Setting new rules for voting by mail. So they know it’s you that actually received the ballot and filled it out.

5. Regulating donations to counties. So that Facebook doesn’t drop $300 million whenever they feel like it.

6: new rules for removing people from voter roles. As they should since people move out of state and should vote in the state they live in while also dead people shouldn’t be there. For example your mom has died you live in your mothers house and you receive two ballots and fill them both out one bring hers.

7. Enhancing poll watcher freedom so that poll watchers can actually do their jobs and see what’s going on.

8. Requiring the recording of vote counting.

None of this is democrat racism. None of this makes it any harder for low income to vote. This is simply called security.

Democrats like to throw out racism at everything. The Texas law doesn’t make it harder to vote nor is it racist. Everybody every color every income bracket has a paper trail at school, has a paper trail for free medical, at the dmv, paper trail for food stamp application, the banks, and so on. And every single one of them requires an ID. You need ID for a beer.

Even for those stimulus checks they gave all low income and illegals they have a paper trail they have ID they have signature. So save the bullshit.

The law makes nothing harder or racist. It’s called security. Anybody against this security either wants to cheat or they are racist. Non whites such as myself and low income people are not stupid. We know how to get an ID. We know how to fill out forms. And we know how to find transportation to a polling station. White democrats are the true racist.

It all makes it harder to vote based on the Big Lie propagated by Trump and Trump stooges like you. Interesting that you're obsessed with the race issue. Why don't you explain why the Republican Southern Strategy is not racist for me and my readers?

You bring up trump and something historical you and the democrats call racist as a deflection. Stop with the deflections and why don’t you explain how requiring an ID is racist or makes it harder to vote?
You explain why you and the rest of the democrats feel non-whites are to stupid to get to a voting booth and are too stupid to cast a vote on a touch screen? What about mail in voting makes it non racist and easier to vote? Aren’t the bubble to fill in on the ballot by pen too complicated for non-whites? Why do you feel and believe all non-whites can’t live a good life or even be able to survive without the help of white democrats? Are they too stupid to get an education and a job without you?

I'm not arguing that ID voting is racist. I'm arguing about all the other things Repugs do to make it harder for everyone to vote. Repugs are doing that because they know that the more people vote the worse it makes their chances to get elected.

Who says "non-whites" are stupid? Not me. Mail-in ballots make it easier to vote. What's stupid is Trump's claim that the mail-in ballots were somehow suspicious, though obviously it was a safer way for people to vote during the pandemic, which of course he made a lot worse than it had to be with his negligent leadership.

Non-whites don't need white Democrats as much as Democrats need the non-white voters. You seem a lot more obsessed with the race issue than I am. You apparently think that there's no such thing as a white person who isn't racist.

A question: was the 2020 election stolen from Trump?
