How can republicans say they speak for the American people when they do all they can to suppress the vote?

Two felons were caught running a scam calling people in Detroit to say if they mail in a ballot the IRS and the state police will have your name. Reports indicate the same intimidation scam was used in a number of major cities.

In Texas republicans sued to stop the governor from increasing ballot drop boxes; the result is one box per county so in one metropolitan county there is 4.7 million people forcing most voters to go to the poll and risk Covid infection and long waits.

Of course, Trump has said he wants to stop mail in votes and claims rampant voter fraud. He hasn’t presented any evidence other than nine ballots found in a trash can at one mailroom.

Almost every republican run state has voter restriction laws that make it harder for the poor to vote including eliminating poll stations in inner city areas.

Every time a Republican says “the American people this” or “the American people that,” I want to puke.
