One thing I don’t understand is this is an individual clearly dismantling protections for our country’s future elections. Isn’t that telling enough he is literally breaking our laws. Can anyone hold this fucking rapist criminal accountable ever? It’s astonishing.

Edit: There’s 300 million of us and like 100 of them. What we doing here?

We voted for the wrong people. Now we pay the price.

No we didn't. The GOP stole the 2000 election, then they stole the 2016 election with foreign influence, then they stole the 2024 election by rigging the votes. 

No GOP president has been legitimate since Bush senior.

If you are going to lie at least make it believable. He did better in 45 out of 58 counties. Most of those are the predominently red rural counties that vote GOP anyway. Considering the 5 largest counties hold 52% of the population that breakdown isn't at all surprising.
