    Why would Trump be purging voters? Is he in charge of state-run voter rolls now?

    As the Trump administration encourages […]

    Ah- he isn’t. Bullshit headline.

      Yea you’re right only half the states are going to purge their voter rolls! I dont need to worry. Its just the shit hole states that will be doing it to save their republican incumbents.

        Right, so call them out when they do it. It’s easy to name Trump so that he takes the fall (he’s not up for election) and let the others in the conspiracy- get off the hook. But it’s really those secretaries of state or election boards who would be to blame, not Trump when it actually happens.

          Of course. But again who set the stage for it, who’s will is being done. Nothing i can do about an election in Alabama im half way across the country. All the states that will do this have already been getting away with murder when it comes to fostering democracy in their elections lmaoo. We’re talking about the states the government had to force voting rights laws on in the first place. The government not enforcing those laws anymore, while also encouraging similar behavior… most of us have to look at the person in charge.
