Maga Convicted Of Election Tampering

Kathryn

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
As a person who is a registered Republican but not a MAGA,. I would like to offer some insight.


First of all, many Republicans are tired of being lumped in with MAGAs.

Secondly, many Republicans are a bit wary of the mainstream media.

Compare her with Trump. His crimes are more numerous
& far far more severe. Yet he remains free. The little people
always pay more dearly. But her sentence is appropriate
because otherwise, Trump's apparatchiks would see little
risk in over-throwing government for him. Trump can't
be reigned in, but his minions can be.
It's the highlighted phrase that makes it all feel so hopeless. How is it possible that a nation of laws, that incarcerates more of its own citizens than practically anywhere else, cannot cope with this person?

Oh look, same district. But Republican fraud.

Yep. They all do it. Both parties.

More to come.

Nine years seems to be very harsh, especially as I see her as a victim as much as a perpetrator.
She is just too naïve and gullible for the job, maybe even delusional. She might as well suffer from a mental condition that would make her more fit for a mental institution than prison. (And no, Trump derangement syndrome is not an established mental condition, but cult members have been deemed to be not responsible because of their delusions.)
Has she been psychologically evaluated?
Those who used her should be held responsible just as much as she is.

But that is not inevitable. The people who you are lying to must be unable of critical thinking and willing to swallow the lie, at least in a society where truthful reporting is available.

The point in contention is voter fraud here and I provided enough examples.
The issue of voter fraud in the last & the
upcoming elections is Trump's false claims,
& attempts at overturning them, by both
subversive & violent means.
Finding mischief in the primaries is irrelevant.

It's akin to royalty.
And not just Trump.
Clinton couldn't be convicted either.
Both parties are loyal to the cult leader, rather than to the law.

One party's policies are poplar. The other party, if they're to win elections, must manipulate, invent issues and generally foment fear and insecurity to get support, then interfere with voting by demographics likely to support the opposition.

Can we agree that whoever commits the fraud, regardless of political party, regardless of which election, should go to jail, and not be appointed or elected to a position of authority?

Can we agree on that?
Sure. It's a bipartisan problem.

I was thinking the same thing after reading the article about her receiving 9 years.
