“We recognize that, in the next four years, our decision may cause us to have an even more difficult time. But we believe that this will give us a chance to recalibrate, and the Democrats will have to consider whether they want our votes or not.”

That’s gotta be one of the strangest reasonings I’ve heard in a while.

      It’s pretty clear that the people who have this take, regardless of party or political affiliation, don’t care. If they did care, they would listen. People who care don’t make threats. They listen.

        It isn’t a threat. If Muslims don’t vote this year the chances of the GOP taking over becomes that much higher. At which point white liberals will be able to do nothing. So what do you want? Do you want to vote for the party that you have some chance of getting what you want or the party that you have no chance of getting what you want? How is pointing out that voting for the face eating leopard party might result in your face getting eaten by leopards a threat?
