Now why on earth would there be a good reason to do this
Democrats sued to prevent a number of last minute rule changes from being enacted this late in the process. The GA Supreme Court just ruled that they will not hear an expedited case.
Just a reminder that Republicans on this site had HUGE PROBLEMS with last minute rule changes to the point where some of you insisted that it invalidated the results of the election. So why are you OK with it now?!?
https://www.law.com/dailyreportonline/2 ... 1029124506
"In the latest battle over Georgia’s election laws and procedures, the Georgia Supreme Court declined to expedite a Republican appeal aimed at reinstating seven last-minute rules passed by Georgia’s State Election Board ahead of the Nov. 5 general election.
If enacted, the rules would have made it easier for local election officials to delay certifying election results, required hand-counting of all ballots on election day, expanded mandatory poll-watching areas and mandated video surveillance of ballot drop boxes, among other changes. Voting rights groups and election officials alike opposed the rules, arguing that last-minute changes could sow confusion and doubt into the elections process, and that implementing the changes would violate Georgia’s election laws."

Re: 2024
I was fine overlooking the racist jokes by a comedian at a rally. But then I heard JD Vance's response to it.
Ohio! How did you elect this guy to a federal office? I thought JDs thing was that he was supposed to be able to relate to the common people since Donald was born rich and lives in a literal country club. Anyway, JD's inexcusable response was not the expected 'I don't condone this.' Nope, again, JD said we just need to get over it. JD has left the regular folx behind, and he is all privileged now. Your entertainment says very racist things ("I don’t know if you know this but there’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico.") JD said, "I’m not gonna comment on the specificity of the joke … but I think that we have to stop getting offended at every little thing in the United States of America, I’m just so over it." That is so easy for a rich white guy to say.
Hinchcliffe drew on racist tropes about black people and watermelons and he called Palestinians rock-throwers while in the same sentence suggested Jews would not spend money, invoking an antisemitic trope.

Re: 2024
Sadly, this isn't even close to the bottom. Further down the drain we go. It's so disgusting how the GOP has now just gone ahead and openly embraced racism and hate to the point where "we all just need to get over" them openly joking about being racist.
Re: 2024
These are the things they are saying at a time when they need votes.
Re: 2024
I they have repeated their own BS so many times that they start to believe and at times feel like they have it in the bag and can just break out the old 1970s racism joke books and think they are fine to have a laugh at others expense.

You’re the desperate ones. “Oh, my! The mean little effeminate man told a joke! Where is my handkerchief? Won’t someone please think of the children?!?”

Re: 2024
unless you’re just a bigot, those kinds of “jokes” are for comedy clubs…not presidential endorsements
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?
Re: 2024
Good grief, you're so overly dramatic. Pointing out that this probably wasn't a great move right before the election isn't "desperate". We're just having a conversation about what is happening. It has gotten no more attention here than the hundreds of other racist tropes the Trump campaign has surrounded itself with the last month or so.JKLivin wrote: ↑Tue Oct 29, 2024 1:28 pmYou’re the desperate ones. “Oh, my!

It’s not racist. He didn’t say Puerto Ricans were garbage, he said the island was covered in garbage, which, aside from the resort areas, is a true statement.twocoach wrote: ↑Tue Oct 29, 2024 1:44 pmGood grief, you're so overly dramatic.

And Hugh Jass and Bugs Bunny weren’t going to back Trump anyway.

Stop and think for a change. Seriously.
That’s on par with me taking your statement to mean that only Mexicans dig graves because doing so is beneath White people. Silliness.
Take a deep breath and get ready for the Trump Train to roll in. It’s gonna be spectacular!
