Mama (Thinks She) Knows Best

So Mom promises Elmo will do to the country what he did to Twitter: get rid of any worker who is not male (preferably white), and wreck everything about it while tanking its value.

Ignore the sheer ignorance that this isn’t how government works. David Stockman ran the OMB under Reagan for four years, thinking he could do that. Reagan ballooned the deficit, and Stockman never had the monarchical powers he thought he needed. Elmo’s not going to run a new department or axe the government without the approval of Congress. That pesky Article I is just not going away.

She came from a country where only white people could vote. https://t.co/bmwDnGnpjP

In pre-computer days (yes, I’m old. Punks!) we voted in precincts only, and presented our Voter Registration cards. There was a list and we were checked off to vote.

You couldn’t vote twice if you wanted to (not without great effort; and who wanted to?).

Now, in early voting, I present my DL at any polling place, they check me on the computer database, and I vote. I couldn’t vote there again, or anywhere, without great effort (a fake DL that I’ve registered with at a fake address), and why would I want to? Margins in statewide elections are never that narrow, unless I get 5500 friends to do it with me….

This is just fucking ignorant and ridiculous.
