Donald Trump Announces Plan to Change Elections

Lol.
You're missing the whole point. This is to discourage voting.
Plus, many urban city ppl likely may not have the ability to vote in 1 day due to dense populations.

People are right to complain about this. Why are you always trying to downplay regressive Republican policies while acting like you're so fukking enlightened and above it all?
A filibuster is a tactic used in the United States Senate to delay or block a vote on a measure by preventing debate on it from ending.[1]: 2 The Senate's rules place few restrictions on debate; in general, if no other senator is speaking, a senator who seeks recognition is entitled to speak for as long as they wish.[2]: 716 Only when debate concludes (whether naturally or using cloture) can the measure be put to a vote.
Rule XXII of the Standing Rules of the United States Senate allows the Senate to vote to limit debate by invoking cloture on the pending question. In most cases, however, this requires a majority of three-fifths of the senators duly chosen and sworn (60 votes if there is no more than one vacancy),[3]: 15–17 so a minority of senators can block a measure, even if it has the support of a simple majority.
If the Democrats do their job, none of his changes will go through. The Republicans do not have the 60 votes needed to end a Filibuster. So contact your Democtratic Senators and demand that they put a stop to this, if you want to do more than complain and worry about it.

Because breh is a smart dumb n-gga with a "I'm always right" complex
I didn't say they didn't have right. Go ahead and spend your friday focused on Trump.
This is accurate. I am smart dumb nikka with a always right complex. Very accurate description.
Expect a coli user who named himself after a demon to show some common sense Brehs…
True, but I do see states (the deep red ones) continuing doing fcck shyt to discourage voters like redistricting.

Then you get the Black churches, Black organizations, family members to make sure those in the flocks, neighborhoods, etc have their id, their registration up to date (Don't wait till the day of, because they depend on that to be able to eliminate you), and a means of travel to the polls in those states. The states have a lot of leeway, but really we can overcome much of it if we actually work together to overcome them.
Complaining in those states are not going to do anything, we have to see the problems and act to resolve them. We can't be passive on stuff like this. So while we fight to get the laws changed, we also have to work to limit the effects those laws have on us while they are in place. Being proactive is the answer while working to get enough votes to get the laws stripped from the books.
*Truthfully, I believe we could coordinate this a lot better if we actually had our own political party, that focused only on our issuse while we voted based on what is best for us alone. Intersectionality harms us as much as conservativism, since they seem to always find a way to make our issues secondary to the issues of everyone else. In the end, no matter the spectrum they are on, they are still White and that means they are most likely still an arm of WS.
