Liberals are americas socialists.
Socialists live by the motto “by any means necessary”. Its not surprising to anyone except those who haven’t seen it for decades.
In my state, the Left specializes in keeping Republicans (and their own opponents) off the ballot by combing through signatures to get on the ballot and challenging each and every one of them on even the most minuscule triviality.
You have to give them credit for fully harnessing the illegal and legal sides to further their goals.
