No kidding. Headline from today: https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4836424-donald-trump-kamala-harris-personal-attacks-defense/
The DNC is erecting an impenetrable wall around the convention and “requiring” ID to enter. Oh the irony.
I think he is past that. Ashley Biden now could probably use some counseling after she showered her father with praise last night.
I hate to break it to you, but your orange god himself was mostly out of prime time with his actual acceptance speech
Is it the Democratic National Committee or is it the Secret Service and/or Chicago Police that have made the decision to erect "the wall"? Just asking and speaking of irony, I suspect that you were probably critical of the Secret Service and local law enforcement because they had inadequate security in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13th.
I do not understand why there is irony here. I know it's likely to be something stupid but please elaborate.
What is it about the DNC that compels the worst right wingers here to start throwing feces? Is envy, frustration or sadism?
Apparently not, since he was still blazing away after midnight.....but whatever comforts you in this time of distress
Is exercising your right to vote the same as attending a political event? Not at all. The issue with voter ID laws isn’t about requiring ID per se; it’s about how these laws disproportionately affect specific groups. Studies have shown that voter ID laws can create significant barriers for minorities (including African Americans, Latinos, and Native Americans), as well as the poor, elderly, and students—groups who may have more difficulty obtaining the required identification. These laws can disenfranchise voters who are otherwise eligible, not just 'blacks,' as you seem to suggest. It’s misleading and reductive to imply that opposition to voter ID laws is solely based on anti-racism toward one group when, in reality, it concerns broader issues of equity and access. Conflating the requirements for entering a secure event with the right to participate in a democratic process misses the point entirely. Opposing voter ID laws is about ensuring that all eligible voters can exercise their right to vote without unnecessary barriers—not about racism. I am sure, however, that you have a well crafted strawman in mind.

(Apr 2011) Adam Kinzinger on the Issues If those positions and votes make him a "relatively liberal" member of the Republican party, then it's just further evidence that Republicans aren't conservatives. At it's core, conservatism is about classical (e.g. Friedman) economic theory. It's been hijacked by mouthbreathers pining for "Leave it to Beaver" pre-civil rights societal tropes and supporting whatever government intrusion they think moves them closer to their nostalgic utopia, but being a conservative is about limited government and fiscal restraint.
