For John, BLUF: President Biden seems to think that the Republican Party, which fought for 100 years for the rights of Black People to vote, has turned into the Democratic Party of the Old South. He is sadly, and damagingly mistaken. Nothing to see here; just move along.
Here is the sub-headline:
“Oh, yeah, I think it could easily be illegitimate … The increase in the prospect of being illegitimate is in proportion to not being able to get these reforms passed.”
From Legal Insurrection, by Professor William A. Jacobson, 19 January 2022, 07:00pm.
Here is the lede plus two:
oe Biden is setting the stage for Democrats to claim 2022 wins by Republicans would be illegitimate, based on the false claims of voting suppression that even CNN said were lies, CNN Skewers Biden’s Voter Suppression Lies. Yes, CNN.I admit I am a bit confused. Is the Presidenet saying that the election two years ago may have been illegitimate? I know Democrats questioned the 2016 Presidential Election. At Least Ms Hillary Clinton stated that.Democrats are using fearmongering about “the end of democracy” in order to try to nationalize election controls away from states and local governments to lower election integrity. Unless Democrats can bust the filibuster — and that looks like it’s not going to happen because Manchin and Sinema are holding firm — then the voting bill is dead. (That vote may happen tonight.)
Democrats are expecting to lose bigly in the 2022 elections, so of course, Biden preemptively is suggesting the 2022 elections may not be legitimate. That’s just how Biden framed it at his press conference today:
Or is it that certain states have been doing evil things, rolling back COVID Pandemic exceptions to our commonly accepted voting practices. Since Politics is a negotiation, I would be happy to offer up some options in exchange for Voter ID and signatures on Mail-in Ballots. Is there a deal to be had?
Hat tip to the InstaPundit.
