Want fair elections? Ron DeSantis says undocumented immigrants must be expelled first

[RandySF]

Florida’s Governor is again arguing that elections in “blue states” could be more fair, while suggesting a Donald Trump policy proposal may be part of the solution.

“I think his immigration policies to repatriate the illegals and close the border will also help because that’s going to make it less likely that those folks will be able to vote,” Ron DeSantis said Sunday on Fox News‘ “Sunday Morning Futures.”

Trump, as he did in 2016, is promising the biggest mass deportation effort in many decades.

“Following the Dwight Eisenhower model, we will carry out the largest domestic deportation operation in American history,” Trump said in the Spring, referencing the infamous “Operation Wetback” program that was a response to concerns under Eisenhower and predecessor Harry Truman that undocumented immigration depressed wages in the Southwest.

DeSantis himself made similar proposals for a “big program” during his failed presidential campaign.

3. Ronnie, you are responsible for voter registration laws.

Why are you giving all the 'illegals' voter registration cards? You are a nazi twit. Bet those custom cowboy boots are really uncomfortable. They sure look uncomfortable.

4. Not you Ron Ron Ron, not you Ron Ron

Uh, Ronnie? If they are undocumented, and a voter registration is a document, how do you think they are going to vote?

Also, undocumented people aren‘t going to want to draw attention to themselves thus risking deportation. Or has logic gone the way of abortion rights in Florida?

5. Good idea. And maybe "Moms For Liberty" can fix all the roofs after the next hurricane.

6. One snag with that

Republicans don’t fix things. They break them.
