There have been a few Supreme Court rulings in the last few months that the Democrats haven't had a problem with, but the latest is NOT one of them. This will renew the left's call to "pack the court."
The Democrats' narrative for the week has been set, and they might have to move on from their Natalie Harp obsession because of this:
BREAKING: The Supreme Court has cleared the way for President Trump's executive order restricting mail-in voting ahead of midterms. https://t.co/FDJnPdmoBw

Sorry Dems but Trump will give the green light (or flag) to this ruling.

From the AP:
The Supreme Court opened a path Monday for possible implementation of President Donald Trump’s executive order restricting mail-in voting, though it remains unclear how much can be put in place before the fast-approaching midterm elections.
The decision leaves room for additional court challenges that could further slow Trump’s order, and other similar cases have already been filed. The U.S. Postal Service laid out how it would implement the order last week, but time is running short to impose major changes. North Carolina is sending out ballots Sept. 4 overseas and to military voters, and other states will quickly follow suit in just a few weeks.
The Supreme Court’s conservative majority didn’t decide the legality of Trump’s order, instead ruling that states who sued did not have the legal right to challenge it.
It must be a good decision, because Nancy Pelosi is not happy:
The right to vote is the foundation of our Democracy, and the Supreme Court’s decision allowing the President to move forward with this assault on that right is an insult to the vision of our founders.

Trump’s attempt to seize control over Americans’ ability to vote by mail… https://t.co/rOvZQKwQ2p
The other reason we can tell it was a good decision is because Gavin Newsom is among the triggered Democrats:
Another day, another Trump attempt to rig elections and destroy democracy.

We can stop this. VOTE this November. https://t.co/z1HCWXefh9
It's been a bad last few days for the Democrats.
The headline should read “Supreme Court has cleared the way to make mail-in-ballots more secure for citizens”

The only reason anyone would oppose ensuring that only legal voters can mail a ballot is because you want to cheat.

The only reason anyone would oppose the SAVE America Act is because you want to cheat.
Democrats oppose both. https://t.co/WN61YU5e0V
Yes indeed, and that's quite telling.

Editor’s Note: Republicans are fighting for election integrity by requiring proper identification to vote. It's common sense, yet Democrats are spreading lies about the impact of such a measure.
