In Major Blow To Democracy, Supreme Court Rules Voters Can Vote For Favorite Candidate
Babylon Bee ^ | 3/4/24

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a stunning unanimous decision that dealt a shocking blow to democracy, the United States Supreme Court affirmed that people can vote for the candidate they want.

The landmark ruling, issued just as the 2024 Presidential Election prepared to ramp up, presents a grave new threat to American freedom, as all nine justices declared that voters can, in defiance of what the ruling authorities may want, select their preferred candidate.

"We've never seen democracy in such danger," said black and gay White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who is black and gay. "Today's ruling from the Supreme Court now adds credence to the belief held by fringe extremists that they are allowed to select the candidate they want in an election. This is terrifying."

The state of Colorado had boldly and bravely attempted to preserve democracy by removing former President Donald Trump from the ballot, but the nation's highest court ended all hope that freedom and liberty would reign. "We don't have a country anymore," said a despondent Rachel Maddow. "You mean to tell me that — in a DEMOCRACY — people can just go out and vote for whoever they want?! Why don't you just burn the Constitution already? No, seriously, can we burn it?"

At publishing time, Democrats at all levels of government across the country decried the ruling as the end of America as we know it, ushering in a new and dangerous era of people getting to vote for the candidate they want to be in charge.

I’m old enough to remember when The Bee was a satire site. This is spot on.

The Democrat definition of Democracy is they choose both candidates.

The unintended consequences of the DEMOCRAT LAWFARE VIGILANTES is that Trump has received massive publicity when these antics are reported in the news.

Next up will be when Judge McAfee removes Fani Willis from her office in about 10 days.

The only thing that has kept the Leftists excited about the 2024 election is that Trump will be imprisoned and now that house of cards is folding.

I await the YouTube video of a White House press conference that exposes the truth that well may be stranger than fiction.

Sad thing is that it’s not really funny.

They really have devolved into this absurd mindset. We’re dealing with a political mindset that has lost all connection with rationality and sailed off into uncharted mental illness.

One would (almost) give a pinkie finger for the kind of talent that The Bee has in just one of their little pinkie fingers.

However, this one kinda wrote its own self.
