This video shows Democrat Ayanna Pressley talking about the need for convicted felons to be able to vote. She also wanted 16-year-olds to vote as well. Are Democrats just trying to find new ways to trick people into voting for them? If anything, we need to raise the voting age to 35, not lower it. And as for felons voting, that's probably a bad idea too. Sometimes if you break certain laws, then maybe losing the right to vote should be part of the consequence. From her own GOV page, it says the following about Pressley's desire to have convicted felons and 16-year-olds voting:

Today, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley (MA-07) and Senator Peter Welch (D-VT) unveiled the Inclusive Democracy Act, brand new, first-of-its-kind legislation that would end felony disenfranchisement in Federal elections and guarantee the right to vote for incarcerated citizens. The lawmakers’ bill comes as an estimated 4.6 million citizens – disproportionately Black and brown citizens – are denied voting rights because of a criminal conviction

In March 2021, Rep. Pressley led her colleagues in re-introducing an amendment to lower the federal election voting age from 18-years-old to 16-years-old.

Convicted felons are clearly anti-society or they wouldn't be incarcerated. Why would you want them to vote? 16 year-olds don't have the maturity to vote, & in paricular the Blacks, with an average IQ of 67, don't have the intellectual capacity to make reasoned judments on anything of consequence. Blacks are predominantly anti-Trump, not for his whiteness, but because his IQ at 155 is MORE THAN DOUBLE THEIRS. they are incapable of following his reasoning powers.

The entire "Squat" needs to be in jail for various criminal actions too numerous to list.
