My wife just read to me a tweet (or whatever) where a husband was making his wife vote by mail so he could guarantee she voted for Trump.
I feel like he should be charged for voting twice. If she doesn't get to pick who to vote for, she's not voting, he is. Send him to jail for 15 years (or for whatever they sent that woman who cast the provisional ballot because she was told she could and then she wasn't eligible to vote in the end).
The irony of these guys complaining about vote manipulation conspiracies while manipulating votes.
I have to wonder how good political polls are at detecting this type of thing, also motivation to actually go vote on the day.
What I mean is, before and after the floating garbage joke, responses to polls might have been the same, but some responders might have become much more motivated to actually vote.
Most commentators and pollsters are saying the polling is very thorough and accurate but resolving these types of issues doesn't really seem possible to me.
Next they'll be wanting jobs, to own property and to wear trousers too!
Yeah, and we can't give them that because trousers are a zero-sum game and if women wear trousers, then there won't be enough trousers to go around!
/s
Lol. This is awesome. What a bunch of douchebag losers.
"Voting for Harris is like having an affair"? That extrapolates into some pretty creepy implications about how they see their and their wife's relationship with Trump.
Treat women like objects and strip their rights.... fuck around and find out.
Jesse Watters of Fox News has even equated a wife secretly voting for Harris to “having an affair.”
something that this article didn't mention is that jesse walters' current marriage started as an affair: he started dating his current wife while he was married to his previous wife. (source)
yet another example of every accusation being a confession.
Missing little nugget on this. His current wife, ex mistress, was a producer in his show. Copy/pasted from Wikipedia: "Noelle filed for divorce in 2018 after Watters admitted to an affair with a producer on his show, Emma DiGiovine. Watters claimed to have begun dating DiGiovine by letting the air out of her vehicle's tires so she would ask him for a ride."
Funking all caps CREEP.
it's (somehow) even creepier when you hear how he describes it:
"When I was trying to get [my wife Emma] to date me, first thing I did, uh, I let the air out of her tires," Watters claimed, pleased with himself. "She couldn't go anywhere, she needed a lift. I said, 'Hey, you need a lift?' She hopped right in the car." (source)
he started dating his current wife while he was married to his previous wife
Traditional Republican values today.
You could say he’s a tradhusband.
Accufessions should be a term.
Smash the patriarchy.
So those MAGA women actually have two jobs: Vote early for Harris, and keep their husbands occupied on voting day...
Sneak in a good laxative!!! 😁
Oh, many of them are. They are right to be afraid. Everything makes these gamma males afraid, though. Climate change, the empowerment of women, people who disagree with them.
They are gentler than snowflakes, they are cold breezes in a world that's steadily warming. And they know it. They fear the future, no matter what happens. They fear change.
It's as if they want to conserve the status quo. We should call them "conservationists"!
How dare they have opinions of their own.
Their book says...
@MicroWave Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA: “If men stay at home, Kamala is president. It’s that simple.”
🥳 YASS, king!!! 🥳 🥳 🥳
...Wait, what? That's not how he meant it?
I wonder if divorce rates will go up.
No, most likely just spousal abuse. The right is well known for not having to need proof to believe something as fact. All they need is a passing thought that it could be possible, or worse the orange tells them "your wives are traitors that voted for Kam-ela"
As long as No Fault Divorce is still legal in their areas.
Exactly. Depends on who wins the election!
Will a republican judge see a fault in a married woman voting against her ~~owners~~ husbands wishes?
If they didn't let people take their phone with them while they fill the slip I guarantee there would be even more.
They don't let you use your phone.
You're hidden while filling the ballot aren't you? Not hard to take it out and take a picture because your crazy spouse wants to make sure you vote "for the right person"
It is a crime in Texas to take photograph s within 100ft of a voting machine
It was annoying too, because Texas has huge ballots, and I took notes on my phone to help me.
No. Mine looks like this but more spaced out. They have signs up about phones and the room is very well monitored. I tried to use my phone last time because i had screenshotted my vote411. They gave me a pen and a paper to go outside and write them down instead.
Edit-forgot the pic.
That’s weird. I saw no such signs and had my phone out when I voted. It was in my hand plain as day when I walked from the ballot table to the booth.
Guess it varies from places to places... Which is always weird from a Canadian point of view considering federal elections are handled by the federal government so the norms are the same cross country.
Ah. Yep. Phones are okay in Illinois. Phones are not okay in Texas. Those are the only two I checked.
worst thing about the Julia Roberts ad (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaCPck2qDhk, if you must) is they someone not completely filling in the scantron bubble on the ballot
also Charlie "master debater" Kirk and Jesse "yelling on TV is my memorable trait" Watters are desperate tools, SO ANXIOUS to control women
