VOTER SUPPRESSION...?

 

After watching some of the impeachment trial in the Senate this week, I would like to make a point that many have not even considered. It is obvious to most reasonable people that there is VERY little chance of a conviction, especially since former President Donald Trump cannot be removed from office. Voters already took care of that it seems. But many now believe that they are working towards a censure written to prevent Donald Trump from running for office again in 2024.

 

 

The point I would like to make is that by doing this, less than 100 senators could be SUPPRESSING the VOTE of over 70 million Americans. 70 million voters would not be able to cast their preferred vote for President based on the action of this small number of senators. Imagine if the rolls were reversed and it was former President Barack Obama had lost his re-election bid and the Republican controlled senate had censured him to make him ineligible to run again in 2016? Don't you think there would be shouting from the left over VOTER SUPPRESSION?? Shouting from Democrat politicians and the left leaning media.

 

Is the hatred for Donald Trump SO intense that it could result in millions of Americans being forced into not being able to vote for their candidate? Or maybe voting for someone that is not their first choice? So much for free speech via the vote being a valid method of expression. I am not sure that Donald Trump will even be the candidate in 2024, but if he is prevented by doing so based on the actions of 100 or fewer members of the senate, I feel it would be valid to consider it VOTER SUPPRESSION.
