minus-squareQubaXR@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 days agoFucking conservatives will do anything to get Trump elected.
minus-squaredoingthestuff@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 days agoThis doesn’t make sense though. They could destroy thousands of ballots and it’s not like either of those states are going to go to Trump.

Chaos makes a coup easier.
