“The Republicans should say, we want to take over, we should take over the voting, the voting in at least many, 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting,” Trump told Dan Bongino, the former deputy director of the FBI, in a podcast appearance.

[…]

On several occasions, Trump has pledged to change how the country votes, zeroing in on methods he falsely claims lead to fraudulent voting. In August, he said he was going to “lead a movement” to end mail-in ballots, and vowed to sign an executive order banning them, in addition to voting machines. He did not end up signing the order.

The president also kicked off a rare mid-decade redistricting campaign intended to help Republicans win additional US House seats in November’s midterm elections.

    You can’t read. If you have a suggestion as to how I can do my part to fix this, I’ll not only listen, I’ll do it.

      Ah, so you’re upset that others won’t tell you how to fix your problems? Vastly different, yes

        You’re being asinine. I bet you would tell the people in Gaza and Palestine to solve their own problems too.

        Are you even from the US? If so, what are you doing other than being bothersome online?? Because it seems like you’re a Russian troll.

          25% to 30% of social media is astroturf, according to studies I’ve heard. Maybe not a Russian troll, but certainly paid for by fascists. Don’t let them bother you. They hate their lives sitting in their tiny cubicle telling lies for a meager wage.

            “Certainly paid for by fascists”, lol.

            How dare I say that Americans should fix their own fucking problems instead of whining about how everybody is being mean and not telling them how to fix them

          Certainly a Russian troll for suggesting you Americans get your own shit together instead of whining that the rest of the world won’t tell you how to fix things.

          Because Gaza and Palestine are definitely the same as the US. Excellent analogy, only something an American could have come up with – Israel committing genocide in Gaza is the same as Americans voting for fascists

            I wonder, do you think you’re providing value here?

            I don’t think you’re paid-for, because I’m convinced of your self-righteousness. Your condescension is too natural to be fake.

            But let me ask you: does whining about people whining make you better than them, or worse? What’s your goal?
