Trump Accuses Bloomberg Of “Bribing Ex-Prisoners”

Rolling Stone reports:



The president seemingly does not care about the more than 200,000 Americans who have lost their lives as a result of the coronavirus, but we do know one thing he cares deeply about — his golf game. Before hitting the links at one own private golf courses in Virginia on Saturday — for the 298th time in his presidency — Trump took to Twitter and thumbed out a slew of attacks and lies.

Although the former New York mayor’s pledge to pay off the debts of formerly convicted people in Florida in order to allow them to vote is being challenged on legal grounds, Trump’s charge of “bribing ex-prisoners” is ludicrous and yet another sign that the president and Republicans are motivated to suppress the vote and find it advantageous if fewer Americans participate in the election process.
