Married women may not be able to vote under Trump

Can you do a write up of RFK Jr's "wellness camps" next? Because holy shit 😭

@Raqi some morning musings

@Shayla Assuming that is adequate or accepted in addition to the BC.

@Shayla I think it's super important to be skeptical of any proposed changes to how we vote. This is all a form of voter suppression masked as preventing voter fraud, which is already rare.

Personally, after comments from the current head of the Republican administration about his buddy who knows all about the computers used for voting, I'd be in favor of an audit of the last election.

Trump on Elon Musk: "He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide."

You can use a passport to vote. Just go get a passport

@Brittney I think passports are not feasible for all voters, so this may help some and not others.

Republicans are infamous for placing roadblocks to suppress votes.

I will bet all of my life savings that that doesnt happen

@Shayla I'm up for investigating as many past elections as you want! I'd say there's more obvious concerns around the most recent election (re: the quote from Mango Mussolini above) but I'm not making this a partisan issue

@Annie it’s worrisome it’s even proposed though

@Sarah sounds good. Will you bet yours that it will

@Annie what won’t happen exactly?

@Sarah lol okay then why would you still live here if you truly believe your right to vote will be taken away

@Annie because the real patriots are prepared to stay and fight for our freedom and democracy in the face of a new autocratic regime

@Sarah hold on, let me see if I can use their LoGiC here...

"He didn't say that! And if he did, he didn't mean it!" 😂

@Sarah does that require you to live in the US for the rest of your life?

@Sarah I suppose Trump did say he "loves the poorly educated" for a reason

@Sarah alright. Your choice. If I thought my right to vote was going to be taken away I'd probably move.

@Raqi hurling insults is very classy behavior. You know nothing about me.

@Sarah yes. As I said, if I thought I wouldn't have the right to vote I'd probably move.

"You can't just immigrate wherever you want"...what a fascinating statement.

@Sarah well we will see. I just said I'm betting it won't happen. But I generally don't live in paranoia land.

@Annie are you betting the President didn’t mean it when he said it? Is it paranoia if it has been talked about?

Coming from an autocratic government, I know a dictator when I see one. Trump reminds me of Castro. “Fought with the people” in the Cuban Revolution to overthrow the corrupt government at the time and then became the dictator himself. Well played 🤣

@Annie why do you think it’s so easy to just leave and move to another country? Do you realize how expensive that is? You lose all of your family and local social network, especially as moms raising kids losing the community support you built is a huge deal even IF you can afford to up and move to another country. It’s crazy to say if you are really worried go move somewhere else. Like what are you on about??

@Sarah oh lord. I’m afraid to research this. I don’t know about it and honestly been trying to stay oblivious bc I just can’t..but things just fall on my lap.

@Sarah absolutely! It is a very complicated process and no sort of solution to any of these problems at all. No one should be expected to leave their country on the whims of a fascistic government.

@Sarah wherever you want to attempt to go to, I don't know your preferences.

@Sarah lol okay. As I said, I bet it won't happen and you bet it will. I guess we will see.

Okay so you bring your birth certificate, your marriage certificate and your license when you register to vote and show them that you legally changed your name when you got married. They want to make sure you are a U.S citizen and not pretending to be a person that's dead to get an extra vote.
My dad works with someone that went into vote and he looked at the paper where they crossed his name off and saw his dad's name had been crossed off. He asked 'so my dad came in and voted?' And they said 'yeah, he came in this afternoon.' He said 'well thats quite the miracle considering my dad has been dead for 2 years.'

@Sarah me too lol

@Sarah actually I can afford to feed my kids and its really sick that youd want a mother to enjoy not being able to feed inncocent children. With him working to stop federal income taxess coming out of my check I'll make more and with them working on not taxing overtime my husband will make more. But hey I can afford my house, my food and my kids food, clothes and toys. My husband and I both get paid well.
Maybe watch some Charlie Kirk on Tik Tok and he can explain to you everything happening over Trump instead of feeding into the lefts position to scare you.

@Alyssa yeah my friend got two ballots, one for him and one for his twin AND they sent the twin a different one as well.
My sister in law's ex also got two ballots because he changed his last name and they just continued to give him two.


At least you know your own friends are honest but how many people do you think aren't? (I live in a vote by mail state)

@Annie I didn't insult anyone, I was merely quoting the current president 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Annie see that's where they get extra votes. There's very few honest people. Most people that get extras are just going to use it to get another vote.

@Sarah yes you take their words and then twist them into something to scare people. He doesn't have ultimate power. Things that would change the constitution or any amendment will need to go through congress and left to vote. You all freak out over everything making it out to be something it's not.

Go listen to Charlie Kirk on Tik Tok so you can find out what’s really happening under Trump….the 30 yr old far-right up trumps’ ass…

I prefer my facts from YouTube. Got anyone on there?

☝🏼sarcasm.

Insulting education levels seems to be very commonplace. It's kind of amusing to see the same insults being repeatedly thrown about. Like you realize you're running into a wall and the only thing you've got is "well you're just dumb" haha

@Sarah hahah okay. It's just all very telling. And very child-like. But don't worry I have a toddler, I'm used to tantrums

@Sarah and the tantrum continues.

@Annie does your family own a corporation? Are you their heir to multi-millions of dollars? If the answer is no then you will be harmed by the fiscal policies put forth by the Trump and Musk agenda. These are both rich people looking out for their own best interest. Why do you think they care about you? I have never met a single rich person who cares about other people more than they care about themselves. You cannot be a billionaire without making your money off of the backs of other people who can barely afford to survive.

@Lizz I don't think they care about me

If you think any politician cares about you, you are dead wrong

@Annie then why do you think what they are doing is good for you? How will reducing the capability and competent workforce of the government that does things like make sure our food is safe to consume, ensure airplanes safely make it to their destination, and find cures for diseases benefit you or anyone in the working class? Will it lower your grocery bill? Will it ensure you can travel safely? Will it make the schools safe for your children when they attend without herd immunity when there are no vaccine mandates and previously rare diseases make a massive comeback? When the next pandemic comes and there is no one who believes in science or medicine to tackle it will you feel safe and protected in America?

@Annie I don’t think many politicians care about the people. There are some exceptions, like I think AOC genuinely has her constituents best interest at heart, but outside of this administration no one in recent history has tried to cut the foundational functions of the government that we all take for granted.

@Lizz those are all very very very lengthy topics that would probably take all day. And as it stands, we are discussing voting are we not? If women will still be allowed to vote.
It would be ill advised for Trump to not let women vote considering as far as I've seen online he has appointed 8 women cabinet members

@Annie it is about that, but it’s also about everything else. If he is willing to dismantle the government, why wouldn’t he be willing to take away women’s right to vote? Also, I implore you to look at all the women in his circle and see if you notice a pattern. It doesn’t seem like he puts them there for the right reasons and I don’t think he’d care if they couldn’t vote. He’s been found liable for sexual assault and has recently asked the Romanian government to go easy on a sex trafficker. He’s also appointed a womanizer to be the head of the DoD (one whose own mother called him out for it). I don’t think Trump gives two cents about women.

@Annie I’m not sure the topic was that women will not be allowed to vote. This specifically refers to married women who have their legal name to their husbands. That is not all women.

@Lizz I'm not sure I physically have the time to talk about "everything else." I'm not sure anyone does. And plus we would end up going around and around because I highly doubt we agree on anything given that you like AOC.
Are you saying he wants to have sex with them? Like....Linda McMahon?

Okay, SO sorry, incognito. Married women. Alright so you could change your last name back to your maiden name if you like I suppose.

@Annie I’m not saying that, but I am saying they are all either rich or attractive and they are 100% loyal to him rather than the law or our country. His press secretary will willingly lie for him to the American public. But none of them are overweight. None of them fall outside of the conventional beauty standards and I think that is telling. The same can be said for his male appointees in terms of wealth and completely sucking up to his every whim.

Last term they laid the groundwork to overturn roe v wade which everyone said would never happen, so who’s to say they wouldn’t follow through with this.
