As the GOP redefines words like disgusting, fascism, dishonesty, crazy…, they’re on a real roll when it comes to hypocrisy. In what might be one of the most severe sentences for voter fraud ever handed out, the former chair of the GOP Republican party in Colorado who was convicted of voter fraud in December, barely escaped a jail sentence when he couldn’t keep his mouth shut in front of the judge.
Narrowly avoiding a jail sentence for interrupting the judge during his Friday sentencing for voter fraud and forgery, a former state Republican Party chairman faces the next four years on probation with the requirement to serve 300 hours of community service.

On Friday, Curtis appeared for his sentencing hearing, citing a litany of physical and mental health problems that made it impossible for him to remember filling out the ballot of his estranged wife in October 2016.
...
Curtis' ex-wife learned her ballot had been cast when she called the clerk's office to see how she could vote.

"Not once in this 13-page report did he take any accountability, not once," Costin said. "He blames everyone and everything for his problems. … He makes homicidal statements toward the bench, the government, and he denies his role. He minimizes his actions and calls it a 'paperwork infraction.' … He absolutely expects a slap on the wrist" here today.

Hoskins said she "didn't believe for a second" his medical issues had anything to do with him filling out the ballot, with the correct ink, in little bubbles, signing it and mailing it, at which point Curtis tried to interrupt her.
"Do you want to go to jail, Mr. Curtis?" she asked. "I'm not planning to send you to jail, but you can quickly change my mind. … This was done deliberately and when you got caught, that's when the story came out."
Ok, either this guy is far stupider than we can imagine, or he’s auditioning for a high level job in Trump’s swamp.
We should never ever forget that this is REALLY who Republicans are and have been for decades. Just because you can lock up all the cockroaches behind the basement door and keep them down in the damp darkness for decades, doesn’t mean someone with a key isn’t going to come along and set them free one day. Trump is the keymaster.
Let’s hope that he is a trendsetter for many more Republicans in this regime.
RESIST!
Nov 6 isn’t election day, it’s judgement day!
