     @GottaLaff I cannot believe this is the world we live in now... rejected movie scripts are more believable than our current reality...

     @JasonStiff I say that to myself all day every day. It's just jaw dropping.

     @JasonStiff
     You're WAY too young to become pres of this gerontocracy.
     Nice try, though.
     Try again in 2128. 😉

     @GottaLaff If people repeat their awful voting stunts of 2016 which got us in this mess in the first place, we're all in so much trouble. If Biden isn't a person's cup of tea, that's fine. But doing anything other than voting for Biden to make sure trump goes away is irresponsible, immature, reckless, selfish and short-sighted.

     I really need to be the President... 2028 perhaps...

     @GottaLaff Note that removing the right to vote from women puts him on the same page as Trump (Vance, Blake) supporting tech billionaire Thiel who finds freedom and democracy incompatible. He thinks democracy went wrong when women got the right to vote.

     Thought the same thing!
     He's dearly beloved of #TFG.
     Like he said, "I love the poorly educated!"--Yes, absolutely! 🤣

     However:
     Women's #suffrage was legalized nationally by means of the #19A only in 1920.

     The 3 #ReconstructionAmendments, #13A-#15A, were passed from 1866-1870. Then, in theory, all black men had the right to vote 🗳. It took until #LBS's #VotingRightsActs to seriously eliminate disenfrancising #JimCrowLaws in the #South.

     "How ironic! The party he belongs to wants to go back to the America where black people couldn't vote."
