More evidence Republican voters are becoming more morally bankrupt in defence of Trump.

The Republican supporters believe, with Trump, that they are "sticking their fingers" to the liberals, by electing a "non-PC" piece of shit and evil party who are out to destroy human rights and safety nets and wreck the environment. But how does that make them any better than vandals who deface public property? How does it make them any better than a disruptive neighbour with trash all over their lawn who thumbs their noses at the neighbourhood watch? How does that make them any better than an envious bully who ruins a diorama another kid worked hard on? How does it make them better than gangsters who laugh at the law?

These questions they can't answer.

Mre sticking fingers by choosing ”victim” of liberals and ”regulation”:

Does he have a chance? In fact, he might. Blankenship has mastered the art of victimhood, and as we’ve seen with Donald Trump and Roy Moore, Republican voters love a victim narrative. Blankenship has long maintained that the federal charges he faced were invented by the Obama administration and the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA). These claims are contested by the facts; The Washington Post reported in May that his company, Massey Energy, received 50 citations in March 2010 alone for safety violations at its Upper Big Branch mine. In April of that year, an explosion at the mine killed 29 workers, and a federal court found Blankenship culpable for failures to adhere to basic safety standards.

Alabama Demands Voter ID–Then Closes Driver’s License Offices In Black Counties

What happens when a state with a tough voter ID law suddenly makes it much harder for minorities to get driver’s licenses? We are about to find out in Alabama.

Facing a budget crisis, Alabama has shuttered 31 driver’s license offices, many of them in counties with a high proportion of black residents. Coming after the state recently put into effect a tougher voter ID law, the closures will cut off access — particularly for minorities — to one of the few types of IDs accepted.

According to a tally by AL.com columnist John Archibald, eight of the 10 Alabama counties with the highest percentage of non-white registered voters saw their driver’s license offices closed.

“Every single county in which blacks make up more than 75 percent of registered voters will see their driver license office closed. Every one,” Archibald wrote.

Yeah, but they all ride at the back of the bus anyway right?


What other forms of ID are acceptable?

Driver's licenses and state IDs both come from the same place.

Hilariously, a lot of red states have enacted laws so that for example, an NRA membership card counts, but a school ID doesn't. Yes, Republicans really are that evil.
