Hey, fuckfaces, how about we make voting days federal holidays? Fucken had it with these cunts.

Why would they do that? It would be to their direct disadvantage.

Waiting for that $25 vote verification fee.

Fuck that, get angry, let's yell in their faces so hard that spit lands in Trump's neckgina.

$25? That's just the monthly fee for voter registration. The verification fee is a $250 one-time (per election} payment to match your signature with the signature on your $100 driver's license. /s

I propose a compromise: election day is now moved to 14th June (Trump's birthday) and that day will be a federal holiday. This new holiday will be called "President's Day", which is absolutely 100% a reference to President Trump and no other president and has nothing to do with the fact that it will also be the day that the presidential elections will be held. The federal holiday that previously would have been observed today will be instead named "Freedom Day" in honour of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.

Hopefully this makes everyone happy

Nah, give us a whole week to vote. Liberty Week.

Sorry, but due to new management, your work is now classified as "essential" and you no longer get Stat days, also your pay is cut by 50%. Just be thankful you have a job 😉

President Donald J Trump Memorial Democracy Week

Edit: In most states, when accounting for early voting days, there are already more than 7 voting days.

No, we're done attaching shitty people to good things. No names.

"Death of the 45th and 47th President Memorial Democracy Week"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Wouldn't matter. The vast majority of people do not get federal holidays off work.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Fuck it while I'm making demands into the void at others with no power make that mandatory, too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Hell yeah! Next up, an Australian tradition: Democracy Sausage.

"Please focus on this instead of the death of america." - america

The people who need a day off the most still won’t get it anyway… which, actually, makes it a perfect Trump-style holiday.

"I'll give you 10k if you make this bill."

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Doesn't follow through on the 10k

Has cops stalk the family.

missed opportunity to make the official observance be fathers' day (his is 14 june), as the 'father of modern america' or sumbullshit like that.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

It's already a nationwide observance day, is that not enough?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Probably gonna be a hot take but I’ll observe Hat Day as a federal holiday if it means another day I don’t have to be at my shitty job.

Dearest Loss-Leader.
