It took a long time to erode our democracy.
Calling our democratic process "rigged, "demanding every vote count before you concede when you are clearly mathematically eliminated is wrong. Ginning up your base after you have mathematically lost is dangerous. I get that some politicians do this to gin up their base into continuing their donations but they do it at the risk of slowly eroding trust in our process Calling the FBI to hurry up it's investigation on your opponent suggesting your opponent might be imprisoned before the results are certified is dangerous. I hope we are all looking at what is unfolding now and recognize now how utterly dangerous that is.
