I think the lesson Kemp took from 2016 is that if you control everything, then no one is in a position to investigate you. Also, voter suppression wasn’t unique to Kemp, and he might not have felt like he was being unusually flagrant.

She basically said (only slightly paraphrasing) that if I voted for Democrats, they were going to revoke the laws against first degree murder so they could kill more children.
The contrast between her deadly serious tone and the utter wingnuttery of what she was saying was so extreme I literally laughed out loud.
