Sure. Vote… That’s the problem, the voting thing. Not the fact that there are crazy homeless camping in every city who know exactly who to blame for their despair.
Sorry if I wasn’t clear. I was trying to answer the question about why Trump might do this - what’s in it for this regime.
I mean, the people who will be turfed out onto the streets overwhelmingly vote democrat. By making them homeless, he’s depriving them of their vote. Disenfranchisement is part of his plan.
And a further thought: making more people homeless and desperate creates chaos and makes his call for stronger law enforcement will resonate with more people.
His cruelty knows no bounds. And his fascist regime will do anything to rig the vote to retain power.
Uhh, that’s an evil angle I hadn’t thought about. One would think that an American would not go there on purpose. Greed yes, but not planned on purpose. If that’s really the case, wow! Just wow.
The republicans have been rigging the vote for years - how many states have a dem governor but have a republican house? Every one of those is gerrymandered. Who’s going over the voting rolls just before each election and disqualifying thousands under ‘suspicion’ that they’re dead or moved away? Who is simultaneously requiring photo id but simultaneously shutting dmv offices in areas that are predominantly black? There’s layers and layers of this.
Note: the dems have gerrymandered areas themselves. Gerrymandering is a problem of the first-past-the-post voting system. However it’s IMHO not as bad or blatant as the republican recent attempts - some were thrown out as being obviously racist.
