Gov Abbott includes voting restrictions, critical race theory and rules to ban transgender student athletes. Those are his priorities. He of course said nothing about upgrading the ERCOT grid. Stupid Texans have already forgotten that people froze to death while this piece of shit did nothing. I had a dream where I push this motherfucker over a cliff. Then sadly, I woke up.
The GOP is scared they cannot win, so they are working very hard to change the rules in their favor, much like gerrymandering. Democrats must prevent this.
Kind of difficult when in Red States Democrats have very little representation in the state government. The ONLY thing that saves Pennsylvania from that fate is we often elect a Democratic Governor, which drives the Republican state legislature crazy! They are doing their best to tamper with our system of elections, but so far, Governor Wolf has vetoed anything they’ve thrown at him. Of course now they want to make it a ballot issue, which is time consuming and probably wouldn’t pass in a statewide referendum.
@Barnie2years the GOP has been successfully chipping away at Democracy for most of my adult life. I’m glad that I don’t have many years left, because one of their tactics, ruining public education, is wildly successful and the country is full of morons who believe the lies. I have little confidence they can be stopped.
@MsKathleen unfortunately the majority are not at the end of our lives and have this to fear for our future
@MsKathleen That’s just incredibly selfish. Don’t need your sympathy.
