Voter suppression has been the strategy of Republican Party (RP) for the last quarter century. Beginning with Gingrich the GOP had begun a quest to be the singular political party to be the majority in the Supreme Court, The Congress and the White House.
The RP, once a center right party has drifted away from supporting Democracy and the Right to Vote to an authoritarian one now known as Trumpism. Trump and his loyal followers are opposed to democracy and seeks to overturn the values and principles which were left to us by the Framers of the Constitution.
The last four years under trump have been tumultuous, chaotic and divisive: A period when racism came out of the closet and once again raised its ugliness; When a lame duck Congress led by Ryan passed a tax bill which gave 2/3 to the elite, and 1/3 (to sunset in 2026) to the masses; When we have seen mass demonstrations, some peaceful and some violent in our streets and horribly in the our Nation's Capitol Building; When a disease killed more than 500,000; When The President mislead the public time and time again ignoring the science and medicine sending more families into grief and poverty.
