I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE LAW IN THE VARIOUS STATES
It says a lot that the possibility of it being legally permissible somewhere to vote twice in an election didn't even Barr's eyebrow.

Trump: Americans Who Died in War Are ‘Losers’ and ‘Suckers’
The president has repeatedly
disparaged the intelligence of service members, and
asked that wounded veterans be kept out of military parades, multiple sources tell The Atlantic.
he blamed rain for the last-minute decision, saying that “the helicopter couldn’t fly” and that the Secret Service wouldn’t drive him there. Neither claim was true.
Trump rejected the idea of the visit because he feared his hair would become disheveled in the rain, and because he did not believe it important to honor American war dead,
Trump said, “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.”
In a separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to the more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as “suckers” for getting killed.
Trump, on that same trip, asked aides, “Who were the good guys in this war?”
He also said that he didn’t understand why the United States would intervene on the side of the Allies.
Senator John McCain, who spent more than five years as a prisoner of the North Vietnamese.
“He’s not a war hero,” ...“I like people who weren’t captured.”
When McCain died, in August 2018, Trump told his senior staff, according to three sources with direct knowledge of this event, “We’re not going to support that loser’s funeral,”
and he became furious, according to witnesses, when he saw flags lowered to half-staff. “What the are we doing that for? Guy was a ing loser,” the president told aides.
he seems to genuinely not understand why Americans treat former prisoners of war with respect.
Trump referred to former President George H. W. Bush as a “loser” for being shot down by the Japanese as a Navy pilot in World War II.
Trump finds the notion of military service difficult to understand, and
the idea of volunteering to serve especially incomprehensible.
In the 1990s, Trump said
his efforts to avoid contracting sexually transmitted diseases cons uted his “personal Vietnam.”
Trump, while standing by Robert Kelly’s grave, turned directly to his father and said, “I don’t get it. What was in it for them?”
“He can’t fathom the idea of doing something for someone other than himself,”
“He just thinks that anyone who does anything when there’s no direct personal gain to be had is a sucker.
There’s no money in serving the nation.” Kelly’s friend went on to say,
“Trump can’t imagine anyone else’s pain.
That’s why he would say this to the father of a fallen marine on Memorial Day in the cemetery where he’s buried.”
His capacious definition of sucker includes
those who lose their lives in service to their country,
as well as those who are taken prisoner,
or are wounded in battle.
“He has a lot of fear,” one officer with firsthand knowledge of Trump’s views said. “He doesn’t see the heroism in fighting.”
fixated on staging military parades, but only of a certain sort.
In a 2018 White House planning meeting for such an event,
Trump asked his staff not to include wounded veterans,
on grounds that spectators would feel uncomfortable in the presence of amputees.
“Nobody wants to see that,” he said.

The Unemployment Rate In America's 389 Cities Two Months Before The Election
The unemployment rate in July was 10.5%, an improvement from each of the two prior months.
However, the figure is still above the worst single month of The Great Recession–October 2009.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
among America’s 389 metro areas, the jobless rate ranged from 2.7% to 26.8%.
The figure in each of these cities was higher than in the same month one ago.
Cities at the high end of this range have jobless rates at the Great Depression level.

And still the Senate Repugs offer nothing to 30M people whose jobs were killed by Trash.
Trump $300 in jobless aid: Only 5 states so far are paying benefits
Those states are
Arizona,
Louisiana,
Missouri,
Tennessee and
Texas,
Texas was one of the first states, along with Arizona, to begin paying claims this month,

Biden getting good polls in AZ and TX
He wants those drugs Biden is on.
Jesus, he took what was a great jobs report and turned it into a show of a press conference.
him. Biden shouldn't accept that piece of 's endorsement.A Repug s bag (Flint) but he pegs Trash
Obama carrying water (no pun intended) for Snyder on Flint was a low point for his presidency and probably cost Shillary Michigan, Biden should want nothing to do with Snyder.
watch Biden appoint him.
He left office with an approval rating in the 30s iirc, this endorsement probably loses Biden votes in Michigan if he embraces it.
He ed that whole Flint thing way too bad. Nobody wants this guy's endorsement.
Too late, Biden's campaign has already embraced the endorsement.
The groupthink within the Democratic Party has gotten so ing insufferable. They're focused on mindlessly notching Republican endorsements on their bedpost with zero regard for how toxic the endorsement is.
Who's vote does Snyder's endorsement get? The white people in Michigan who were happy to see a black town get its water supply poisoned aren't going to vote for Biden because Snyder endorsed him, they're vote is safely with Trump.
Snyder's endorsement in a nuts :
That's quite frankly horrendous.
I couldn't find a full throated statement on it, just this.
https://earther.gizmodo.com/joe-bide...d-f-1844959226By not only accepting former Michigan Governor Rick Snyder’s pledged vote but also amplifying Snyder’s endorsement by emailing supporters to check out his op-ed
I dont totally agree with that article. Telling people to go read dude's OP-ED does not signal anything other than to go read it.
Too much opinion, less substance.
He should be actively condemning Snyder's endorsement.
Why? Snyder clearly from his party, tbh...
We are not in any sort of disagreement here.
You can go back to the beginning of the DNC thread. I said myself I feel uneasy about all the courting the Biden team are doing with Republicans. It's one thing to accept their vote but entirely another to waste resources on trying to give them a platform and going out of their way. It's the same mistake Hillary made.
