          To be honest, that was a mistake on the Democrats. The US is just not ready for that. It wasn’t even ready for an older white woman. It’s like they felt Trump was so awful, they could get who ever they wanted through. Which in a sane world, would be true. America, choose the rich old white Nazi man-child instead, twice.

            There’s also ample statistical evidence that he managed to cheat the vote in key swing states… And he also alluded to the fact that he did.

              I’m sure, but it would be in the margin of error. The bigger problem is Democratics thinking the US is a more evolved country than it is.

            The Republican base goes against the party all the time, the difference is the politicians respond by changing policy and they don’t fuck with their primaries as often.

            Remember the Tea Party? Trump himself was the voters rejecting the old republican guard. Turns out you get more votes when you do what the base wants instead of what the people who are going to vote against you anyways want.
