Comment on Spotlight On PA As Trumpers Try To Build A Fraud Narrative

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure, and in the final week of the presidential election, President Joe Biden’s “garbage” gaffe is shaping up to be a gift to former President Donald Trump. A day after Biden seemingly referred to supporters of the Republican nominee as “garbage,” Trump sought to capitalize on the outrage, while Vice President Kamala Harris has distanced herself from the comment.

On Wednesday, in a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s decision to remove nearly 2,000 registered voters from the state’s rolls, after two lower federal courts deemed the purge illegal. At least 1,600 voters will now have to fight to get reinstated—with less than a week to Election Day. “It was a lawless decision in which the Supreme Court did not explain its decision or rationale,” said Anna Dorman, counsel with voting rights advocacy group Protect Democracy. Two months ago, Youngkin filed an executive order to purge Virginia’s voter rolls, ostensibly in a quest to prevent “noncitizens” from casting ballots.

For months, Donald Trump has projected confidence on the campaign trail that he’s poised to defeat Vice President Kamala Harris. But with less than a week until Election Day, he’s planting the seeds to say the election was stolen if he loses. The former President has ramped up his rhetoric this week to sow doubt in the integrity of the outcome, particularly in the pivotal battleground of Pennsylvania, where Trump and Harris are essentially tied in the polls.

I mean, I keep imagining the dark, hate-filled, Orwellian, deep-fried, combover, fever dream, hellscape this country will become if you’re crazy ass wins — nothing personal,” Randy adds. “I mean, it’s almost enough for me to break into one of my internationally renowned, award-winning song parodies,” he says as the full-on music video begins. “A place nobody wants to go.

By WILL WEISSERT and CHRIS MEGERIAN MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Kamala Harris called Wednesday for Americans to “stop pointing fingers at each other” as she tried to push past comments made by President Joe Biden about Donald Trump’s supporters and “garbage ” and keep the focus on her Republican opponent in the closing days of the race. “We know we have an opportunity in this election to turn the page on a decade of Donald Trump, who has been trying to keep us divided and afraid of each other,” the Democratic nominee said. Harris held rallies in a trio of battleground states as part of a blitz in the closing week of the election, with stops Wednesday in Raleigh, North Carolina; Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; and Madison, Wisconsin. She stressed unity and common ground, expanding on her capstone speech Tuesday in Washington, where she laid out what her team called the “closing argument” of her campaign. “I am not looking to score political points,” the vice president said.

Stories such as this one should give us hope about the Trump team’s ability to handle election fraud.
