Trump’s fraud warnings spark fear his backers may intimidate minority voters
In remarks with strong racial overtones, Donald Trump told a mainly white rural crowd in Pennsylvania on Friday that vote fraud could cheat him out of victory and vowed to dispatch police who support him to monitor polls in “certain parts” of the state. “We’re going to have unbelievable turnout, but we don’t want to see…

So the Confederate flag waiving bubbas are going into predominately black voting polling places. Could you imagine the Black Panthers visiting predominately white voting polling places?
Really, what could go wrong?

Well they did go ballistic over the two New Black Panther Party guys hanging around a Philadelphia polling place in 2008. Nobody was harassed (it was a predominately black precinct) but the right demand a federal investigation.

“Donald Trump told a mainly white rural crowd in Pennsylvania on Friday that vote fraud could cheat him out of victory and vowed to dispatch police who support him to monitor polls in “certain parts” of the state.” I thought his supporters liked him because he says what he means. Why is he being so vague? Which certain parts? Come right out and say it you racist bastard! Besides, candidates don’t get to “call out law enforcement”. I suppose this is just more Drumpfian sarcasm.

Donald is clearly calling upon his Brown-shirt wannabes to engage in his own version of ‘Jim Crow-style’ vigilantism.

these assholes better realize that black people own guns too.

He wants them to go down to their voting precincts to monitor or volunteer? Does he not realize over half his audience never voted and do not know where their voting precinct it, let alone ever volunteer to do anything. He keeps saying he gets big crowds, but that will not automatically translate to votes.

They should put up billboards all through Penns. Democrats vote Nov. 8 and Republicans Vote Nov. 9 .
Suzanne McFly August 13th, 2016 at 16:11
No, we don’t have to trick them. It is tricky enough to turn the door knob the correct direction, lets just let them be and laugh at them November 9th as they scream about the end of the world.

Had a resident here about a year ago drive her electric wheelchair through a glass door marked “PULL”.
Fortunately she just got a few minor cuts.

You didn’t fall down laughing, did you? lol
TiredOldGuy August 13th, 2016 at 16:51
I admit it was hard to keep a straight face once we saw she was okay.

Suzanne you’re like me bouncing from FON to here. LOL
Suzanne McFly August 13th, 2016 at 18:42
Yeah, I keep both pages open while I am doing homework, I check in time to time to take a break :)

As long as they don’t come out with guns a blazing hollering INSURRECTION. Of coarse they won’t know what that means but it will sound BAD. :+)
Suzanne McFly August 13th, 2016 at 18:41
I bet they think the “blue pill” fixes insurrection lol.

Remember when the right went ballistic over those two New Black Panther guys hanging around a polling station?
Suzanne McFly August 13th, 2016 at 16:14
They are hilarious, as long as we keep them out of the Oval Office because that would not be funny.
Red Mann August 13th, 2016 at 16:25
Yeah, keeping the White House from the right is critical, but how do we go about fixing the real problem? The problem of so many people that live in a delusional world, that are woefully under-educated? It has been a decades long, deliberate, campaign from the right to dumb-down Americans. They have hundreds of media outlets, the power of extremist religion, the control of state governments and local schools boards that they use to spread their poison. At the root is education and the right has done their level best to destroy decent public education. They know that they have to soften up the populace to allow them to install their diabolical mix of plutocracy and theocracy, and it seems to be working. Most likely tRump won’t get elected this time, but what about the next election and the next and the next? They will not quit because they really believe they are on a divine mission to bring American back to God.

Well it has taken them over 50 years to get to the point they are at currently. I believe this started during the Nixon admin. an they have been chipping away at schools and working to win local elections. The gerrymandering I think was the straw that broke the camels back. They had local and state houses run by far right wingers who were helping the 1% by removing funding schools and what they call “entitlements”, and their low income constituency realized what the end game was (not like the politicians wasn’t saying that from day one).
Since it took them 50 years, I tend to believe it will take at least that to bring it back to center.

FEMA camps.
Red Mann August 13th, 2016 at 16:58
I have a recurring fantasy of kidnapping all the lying RW media a$$holes, all the lying RW politicians and all the lying religious extremists and holding them on some island and, not re-educate, but educate them and have them admit to the public that they had been lying to them. In reality, however, I don’t really see how this metastasizing cancer can be eliminated from the body politic and from our culture.

So Emperor Drumpf is calling for voter intimidation? Gee, and I thought that was illegal. Is this another example of Don-the-Con’s ‘Law & Order’?
whatthe46 August 13th, 2016 at 16:33
calling for voter intimidation and calling for 2ndA assholes to kill Hillary. and he’s also calling for violence when he loses. bitch ass.

Oh Lord Help US All.

Beyond what the Lord can do, it is now in the voters hands
The Original Just Me August 13th, 2016 at 23:01
Don’t count on the voters. I believe the Republicans are ready to kick Trump out. We will see, maybe Monday. The Storm is Brewing.
