This one is just beyond the pale.

Automatic voter registration has recently emerged a key tool in increasing the United States’ anemic voter turnout. The process is simple: Whenever an eligible citizen interacts with a government agency (typically the DMV), she is registered to vote unless she declines. Although automatic voter registration is a nonpartisan initiative, it tends to be favored by Democrats and opposed by Republicans, who believe they fare better in low-turnout races; two Republican governors have already vetoed Democrat-sponsored automatic voter registration bills in Illinois and New Jersey. Now Alabama Secretary of State John Merrill, a Republican, has joined the opposition. Asked a question about automatic voter registration, Merrill declared that the practice “cheapen[s] the work” of civil rights heroes and that “just because you turned 18 doesn’t give you the right” to vote.

If you will look in the "Early voting has begun" thread you will see that my vote was not for Trump. On this forum I have said a number of times that I am a communist. Actually I consider myself a So************************t, but since you can't say that word on this forum, Commie will have to do.

I guess you and Vladimir Putin have a lot in common - you're both communists for Trump.

That suggests he's making an honest mistake, when it's clear that he's a shameless flack who is essentially lying in appropriating the name of civil rights fighters to support his opposition to facilitating voting.
It's sort of like the way people like to say they 'mispoke' when they have to walk back deliberate misrepresentations or insults.
