      Just wait for the inevitable “men should get to vote for their wives” so that can’t happen again.

        Don’t worry, that’s exactly what these TheoBros and Christofascists want! It’s literally in their little manifesto.

        “men should get to vote for their wives” = “Let’s promote mail in voting! Who cares about voting privacy, it’s easier, thus we will get a higher turnout!”

          Oh is this the new angle the GOP is trying? How about a guaranteed voting location for every X citizens? No more hours long line in cities, and no more voting location at every retirement home. How about a national holiday for Election Day?

      They do have more to lose. Look at how fast the Taliban took over Afghanistan when the US left. We should have trained their women to be in the military instead of their men. I doubt the women would have just gave up.

        That’s a shit take and you know it. The Taliban isn’t something that they let win because they weren’t motivated enough. The Taliban was better funded and better organized than the government army.

          Part of me thinks that was by design. The lack of motivation to build a better organized government.
