    Isn’t he democratically elected winning both the electoral college and the popular vote? Democracy is not a guarantee that you will get the best or most qualified leader, just the most popular.

      Saying Trump won the popular vote sounds a lot different than saying he won 49% to 48%.

      Getting kind of tired of people pretending the results are legitimate. We know they are not. The election was massively tampered with.

        I do think an independent audit by the UN is warranted. Perhaps the next elections should have the UN monitoring it though the US would sooner leave the UN than allow that.

          I mean, not necessarily. Trump didn’t really legitimately win the election, and he’s only been driving his supporters away with his ineptitude.

      He came out in public and said he rigged the election with help from some powerful friends. He literally admitted to it, a week after being sworn in but just like always, no one ever does anything about it.

        They made everything a conspiracy theory, so now when you try to make a major accusation like this, it just sounds like another bit of noise.

      They have to uphold the constitution and the rule of law!

      Do you think they just get elected and then do whatever they want? That’s not the US, not until this idiocy.

        That’s not the US,

        That is exactly what US is. They even told you before the election that this is what will be happening if diaper donny gets elected.

          Historically, no. Now, yes.
