MAGAts/Trumpkins like to refer to anyone they don't like as "communists". Maybe we should refer to them as what they really are. Anarchists.

Their Dear Leader (Cheeto) habitually refers to people as communists.

They're now referring to Barbie as a communist.

Even in the past, they hurled that as an epithet directed at anyone who opposed them.

It's an old tactic, one that was crap when it was used in the 50s and 60s, and it's crap now.  It seems to be part of the "spaghetti defense" portion of the war on civil society (throw a bunch of it against the wall, and see if anything sticks).


Now, the self-proclaimed arbiters of "election integrity" are finding that their tactics are coming home to bite them in the ass.

From Politico -

GOP states quit the program that fights voter fraud. Now they’re scrambling.

Over the past year and a half, eight Republican-led states quit a nonpartisan program designed to keep voter rolls accurate and up to date.

Top Republican election officials in those states publicly argued the program was mismanaged. The conspiracy theorists who cheered them on falsely insisted it was a front for liberals to take control of elections.

But experts say the program, known as the Electronic Registration Information Center, was among the best nationwide tool states had to catch people trying to vote twice in the same election. Now, those Republican-led states who left — and other states who lost access to their data — are scrambling to police so-called “double voters” ahead of the presidential election in 2024.


In recent months, elections officials in Ohio — one of the states that led the flight from ERIC — and elsewhere have been quietly convening leaders from dozens of states to talk about ways they can still work together to try to catch double-voters.


So, based on the available evidence (all left but them), their Plan A was to criticize civil society and destroy good government yet their follow-up Plan B is...nothing 

Their Plan B seems to be chaos; destroy what *is*, but offer nothing better to replace it.

Sounds like their Plan B is pure anarchy.
