Yeah Trump won the election. That is how democracy works.

Reporter: "Would you ceded the election if you lose?"

Trump: "If it's a fair election."

The reds prepped for MONTHS if not longer to fight democracy if Trump lost. They had loads of active cases up until the election on loads of bullshit interference. Which all promptly disappeared when Trump won.

Democracy isn't the issue. It's the corruption of these rich assholes.

Also that they act in lock step, dissidents will be rooted out. So they become a (seemingly) united front, which helps immensely at systematically eroding democratic institutions or destroying political enemies
