    Your white Christian privilege allows you to extend your paultry respect and civility. Those of us oppressed by your Christian violence and dogma cum law don’t have that privilege. We know in the end we will be buried in shallow unmarked graves Of our own digging while you and yours bemoan what was become of society while in the warmth of your homes.

    What difference does it make if it’s his handlers or him? It was Karl Rove behind W Bush after all. Biden has run a far more hip campaign on social media than what was done four years ago.

    I'm not a Christian, and your implication that the marginalized people in this country cannot speak with decency and intelligence is a gigantic load of bullshit.

    They can and we did. And we ended up with white Christian Armed fascist control over most of the American government. We ended up with a drunk preppy pseudo catholic SC Justice, a right wing theocracy preaching SC Justice and a bitter stupid affirmative action hire. Hundreds of handmaiden and theocracy lifetime judges and the dismantling of the civil service professional class. All while we were nice and civil while they drove truck at and over us.
    Fuck the rapist in chief and the Christian pussycats.

    I'm the white boy of deep privilege, in atonement. OOP is a guy who isn't as sharp on this as he thinks he is, so he attacks.

    Take it up with the Lincoln Project. Some of those ads are nastier than /anything/ that has been said on this forum.

    Which of course is mostly just people who are under a hell of a lot of stress, shitposting. OOP can't perceive that.

    Important subject change, because this argument is stupid and pointless and what the actual fuck is going on with this? Seems important.

    Cumberland County officials received an email this week from the Trump campaign requesting highly specific details about the county’s ballot security.

    The email, obtained by The Sentinel, went so far as to ask for the address and room numbers of ballot storage locations, and requested that the information be sent to the Gmail account of a Florida-based Trump operative.

    County officials said they have not responded to the request and do not intend to, according to the county commissioners.

    The Trump campaign described the request as “standard election transparency details,” but local officials find the implication — that the President’s campaign staff is harvesting election security plans through what appears to be a personal web-based email account — to be extremely concerning.

    “It’s almost kind of chilling the sort of data they wanted us to provide,” Cumberland County Commissioner Gary Eichelberger said. “This is basically the whole security plan. We’ve never received a request of this detail and I find it troubling that one of the interested parties [in the election outcome] feels they have a right to information that obviously could jeopardize the security of the ballots.”

    The message was sent Tuesday, according to emails reviewed by The Sentinel, from Leslie O’Shaughnessy, who said she was writing “on behalf of Donald J. Trump for President.”

    The email contained an attached, bullet-pointed list of the details requested, which O’Shaughnessy described as being pursuant to “your office’s compliance with existing statutes and law.”

    “Please respond to these questions no later than 5:00 pm EST, tomorrow, Wednesday, October 28, 2020,” the email stated, asking for the response to be sent to a Gmail account bearing O’Shaughnessy’s name, and also including a phone number.

    That number is tied to an Orlando-area virtual learning center, as well as a personal Facebook page for O’Shaughnessy where she identifies herself in a publicly visible post as having “served as an appointee in the Trump Administration in Washington DC.”

    A person who identified themselves as “Leslie” answered the phone number but declined to discuss their role in the email with The Sentinel. …

    (T)he details O’Shaughnessy asked for in her email do not concern ballot verification; rather, they are specific physical security details for ballots and voting machines.

    These include information on “the location(s) that ballots are immediately sent to when polls close (including address and room number)” as well as “the individuals who transport the ballots to the location(s).”

    The campaign is also asking for “the time(s) when are ballots are transported to canvass site,” information on any security provided, and “the best point of contact for each storage location(s) of the ballots.”

    Similar physical security details are asked for voting machines, as well as “If there will be any info still on the voting machines once they are stored” and “the time when any residual information is wiped.”​

    We don’t need police guarding the polling places, we need prepositioned fire brigades. Arson is a favorite tool of Kristians for Trump
