Basically just passing this along, though I’m willing to bet it will get no notice from the mainstream press.
Rand Paul emitted this tweet:
“How to steal an election: ‘Seeding an area heavy with potential Democratic votes with as many absentee ballots as possible, targeting and convincing potential voters to complete them in a legally valid way, and then harvesting and counting the results,’” Paul wrote.
To translate even more succinctly:
How to steal an election: Engage in legal and common campaign tactics while being a Democrat.
This says all you need to know about the modern Fascist Republican Party. So far as they are concerned no Democrat elected to any office is legitimate. It follows, of course, that it is perfectly acceptable for them to actually steal elections, as they intend to do in both 2022 and 2024. Thanks to Manchin and Sinema they will be successful, and Ben Franklin’s observation will never be more salient.
Somewhat related observation: When I did a web search for Franklin’s quote, almost all of the results were from right wing web sites, warning of the threat to the Republic from the left. Projection never ceases.
