Between “Democrats say ‘Vote’” and “Democrats do nothing to fight back,” they didn’t vote in 2016.
This Supreme Court is a result of that inaction.
Congratulations on demonstrating how voter abstention hands the government to Republicans.
Let’s not do that any more.
Donald Trump lost the popular vote and was illegitimately placed into power by the broken electoral college system.
You’re half right. He won due to the Electoral College, but it was unfortunately legitimate.
It was legitimate in the same way that a dictator's rule over their people is legitimate or hangings for blasphemy are legitimate. It may be technically written on a piece of paper somewhere, but someone who got less votes becoming president over someone who got more is not representative of a genuinely legitimate democracy.
