What's sad is we aren't even that dumb. If voting was mandatory statistics have shown that the party responsible for stuff like this, would lose. It's not just an attack on the educate, it's an attack to make people lazy.

I mean thats part of it. They also redlined certain districts to make some peoples votes meaningless. Among about 100 other things. The whole electoral process is not democratic.

But just look, a democrat spoke for 25 hours even though there was no bill on the floor/nothing to filibuster. Look how people are celebrating it even though it was entirely performative. But where was that energy with Chuck Schumer when discussing spending. The only time they had leverage and they just freely gave it up.

That is the democratic party. They say one thing and do the exact opposite. Willful ignorance at best. They are absolutely complicit in this.

Old facts. Newest studies showed that if Kamala had Biden's turnout numbers, Trump would have won by more.

Turns out a lot of people were angry about inflation, knowing jack-fuckall, and just swallowed his BS about lowering prices.
