Oklahoma lawmakers propose ‘MAGA’ license plates to raise money for veteran groups

In a move certain to raise alarms with federal elections officials, two Republican state senators from Oklahoma have proposed a state law that would allow residents to buy specialty license plates reading “Make America Great Again” and “Keep America Great.”

State Sens. Nathan Dahm and Marty Quinn want the plates to benefit veteran groups Warriors for Freedom Foundation and the Folds of Honor Foundation, but experts warned that they might violate Federal Election Commission rules.

“These are political slogans,” Richard Briffault, a professor at Columbia Law School, told The Washington Post. “This has the look and feel of using state resources to support a political candidate, which seems improper . . . and possibly illegal.”

The Senate Bill 1384 would allow Trump, or an entity designated by him, a say in the plate designs. Meanwhile, Dahm posted a mockup of the proposed plates featuring the silhouette of a saluting uniformed officer.

I didn’t make it political. It’s the Rat freaks that despise Prez Trump. MAGA and DJT 2020, makes them crazy. There is no telling what they would do to you and your car.
