Pretzel Logic much ?

Guess you can't read either.

There were TWO independent studies that confirmed each other with inline results. This isn't just "a poll of 800 Hispanic people" and it's either ignorance or dishonesty to suggest it is.

Exactly how it that saving money for the govt? Obvously you do not understand the govt. has teams of lawyers on its payroll as govt. employees, so having them represent the govt. in a Supreme Ct. case is almost costless...the govt. lawyers work on salary, not per hour.

It's funny. You know how many lawsuits were dropped or settled without fault against Trump? Where was this "well they wouldn't have settled/dropped the lawsuit if they had a good case" argument back then?

You don't argue with logic and reason, you are just biased and pathetic.

The fact is rescinding and reintroducing a revised order is cheaper than appealing the rulings. I guess this is another one of those silly anti-Trump things.

What, Trump is saving government money? I HATE SAVING MONEY NOW!

It was a poll, called a survey in your linked article and by Old Dominion Univ. own website. Surveys are not studies....as in no one actually checked to see if anyone that claimed they were registered to vote was indeed actually registered to vote, nor was any attempt made to check to see if they actually voted.

Or because:

Author of Trump’s Favorite Voter Fraud Study Says Everyone’s Wrong

"The problem, says Richman, who identifies as a political moderate, is that the Trump administration’s interpretation of his report is totally off. “Trump and others have been misreading our research and exaggerating our results to make claims we don’t think our research supports,” Richman says. “I’m not sure why they continue to do it, but there’s not much I can do about that aside from set the record straight.”

Good thing you don't need permission to use facts.

However, knowingly misinterpreting facts to suit your preconceived opinions is still wrong. It's not enough to find vaguely supportive numbers; you have to make sure they accurately apply.

Also, it's a bit rich to talk about needing permission to use facts when you're supporting an administration that will reference non-existent events to justify its policies. Maybe you shouldn't rush to defend Trump's use of data when it's clear that he'll make things up on the spot?

The best part of it all is that Repubs have gone nuts trying to prove actual voter fraud for at least a decade & haven't made enough arrests to matter. If it were real they'd be able to prove that it's real but they can't. We just get bullshit studies based on polls instead.

I other words, you lied.

Sure, call it that if you want.

You have given up on reason and logic.

Apparently, facts can be rescinded at will in your world.

It's pretty blatantly obvious what is happening when a study is used by Trump and the author of the study suddenly decides the results are invalid, 3 years later. You just can't see it because of your blind hatred.

It's a deliberate misrepresentation of reality on your part so, yeah, lie is the correct word to use.

No, I was just connecting the dots.

"This is not about politics or partisanship. Lives are at risk, lives of ordinary people just trying to go about their days to do their jobs, contribute to their communities," Clinton said. "It is a danger that must be addressed and addressed quickly."

If that doesn't imply censorship, what do you think it implies?
