Their morals didn’t really change though did they? :( They’ve always been what they are. It’s just that the words that come out of their mouths don’t line up with how they act or what they believe, or even reality, a lot of the time.

While I think it’s funny that the tough on crime crowd is rallying behind a convicted felon it’s important to remember that sometimes there ARE people who have been politically suppressed. Eugene Debs ran in 1920 for the socialist party. He’d been convicted for speaking out against WW1 at the time. He didn’t win, but he did run.
What I hope is that Trump just doesn’t win. His support goes way beyond simple constitutional rights or freedom of speech. These GOP voters are not REALLY saying convicted felons should be allowed to become president. They are saying TRUMP should be allowed to become president. It’s populist, slightly cultish, and entirely frightening. Due process means nothing, personality and whatever they personally view as “strength” are what matters to them.
There was a vote that happened in my youth where two parties ended up with (Edit: NEARLY) identical amounts of votes in the house. In my voting district there was an independent running who was fairly popular with the city and we voted him in. The end result was that during legislation there was some vote where the yes/no vote was split perfectly even between the two major parties and our little independent became the deciding factor Edit: My memory was faulty. He forced it into a tie with his vote and the speaker of the house had to be the tie breaker. But the point still stands that his one vote had a pretty large implication.
This is a very niche and unlikely scenario (it did happen though, look up Chuck Cadman) but it was a very clear indication to me that yes, voting does matter. And every one single vote DOES count and make a difference.
Bets that they do actually know.
That’s an inefficient way to spell lied
That’s true but it literally doesn’t matter what you do the Trumpists will cry foul regardless and facts and reason don’t apply to them. I’m just glad the US still has people in positions of power that are willing to go against Trump and actually follow their rule of law. I’m also not American, but as a Canadian I feel dangerously close to what goes on just south of the border and we have our own cadre of ultra right-wingers who are trying to upset Canadian ways in the model of what Trump does. So I’m glad there are judgements against him when warranted even if he’ll never pay up and even if the amount he’s penalized is a pittance to what he should be penalized and even if his followers cry about it.
