    Also, republicans doing everything they can to suppress votes. Including things like

    • Changing identification rules unnecessarily resulting in people not getting to vote who have voted for literally decades the same way.
    • Aggressively wiping voter roles knowing it will affect democrats more than republicans.
    • Bring on a Post Master general to start dismantling mail sorting machines significantly slowing down the mail… Right after stats showed democrats were much more likely to vote by mail.

    All this bullshit happens and democrats will bitch about how unfair it is, but will still accept the results.

      Democrats will tell you that if they lose, it was your fault for not voting hard enough.

      Voters will tell themselves the problem was a bunch of evil foreigners who tricked Republicans into doing what they’ve been doing since Nixon.

      Republicans will insist they secretly won California and suggest someone needs to “cut down the tall trees” during the next election.

        Sounds pretty fuckin different to me. This isn’t a “both sides” argument.

        Democrats accept the results but aren’t happy with it. Republicans don’t accept the results. And honestly, this feels like it has only become central to so Republicans are since Trump came along.
