Trump claims Alaska voters need ‘190 IQ’ to understand their ballot as DOJ ratchets up case against the state

Trump at a rally:

“They put a ballot down where they’re talking about ‘incumbent’ Republican, and the other one. Most people don’t know in Alaska — and a lot of other states, too — what does incumbent mean? I don’t know what incumbent means,” he said.

So I guess the DOJ theory is that Republican voters are as stupid as the President is. That should get thrown out of court quickly: I refuse to believe that a majority of even Republicans could be as stupid as the idiot in the White House.

Looks like today’s task is installing Syncthing and KeePass.

Fuck the corporate bros and slopmongers for making me waste time on this.

Snail shell in the fir needles.

The Courts Doing Their Job

October Hiking & Walking Summary

  • 21 days of 5+ miles
  • Longest day 32.5 miles Winberry/Alpine/Cloverpatch/Tire Mountain Trails
  • 268.9 total miles (pretty sure this is my largest ever single month)
  • 2089.5 miles year-to-date

Trip reports and photos from the more interesting wilderness hikes.

If you actually look at the Alaska ballot it clearly indicates which Dan Sullivan is the current Senator. So the Trump DOJ lawsuit assumes that Republican voters are too stupid to know the meaning of “incumbent.”

Whatever your opinion on the war in Afghanistan, to do this to people who were on our side is utterly despicable.
