On Sunday morning on MTP with Chuck Todd, you said in regard to the next appointment to the SCOTUS, "Look, we litigated that last year. The American people decided that they wanted Donald Trump to make the nomination, not Hillary Clinton.
Uh, nope. The American people, by a margin of 3,000,000 votes, wanted Hillary Clinton to make that nomination.
The American people spoke loud and clear as to who they wanted as their president. And pretending the majority of them wanted your loud-mouthed, self-absorbed, scandal-ridden, incompetent idiot won't change the fact that they clearly didn't.
A word of advice: Lyin' through your ass doesn't work any better for you than it does for your pResident - which is rather surprising, considering how long you've been trying to hone that particular skill.
Have you considered taking up the accordion instead?

(406 posts)I feel like it's important we not focus on just the HRC voters when putting his little hands in place. 62 million voted for him. 137 million voted overall. 75 million didn't want him. We're the majority.

I heard that line repeated on MSNBC and no one corrected.

(9,426 posts)the fix was in for the orange menace. He declared "The next president will select the SC nominee" He honestly KNEW it would not be Hillary. His "wife" got a job in the administration as thanks for not allowing the investigation into the Russian meddling to go forward. He should go down with traitor tRump.

(50,269 posts)Republicans corrupted democracy and stole the seat. Trump is already running for re-election in 2020. Maybe we should wait until the American people speak then.

(7,188 posts)That was the bumbling he came up with eventually but the more interesting part was the heming and giggling he did before that. Todd went at him 3 times.
