(19,805 posts)A democratically elected leader = Macrone in France. Angela Merkle in Germany.
Our electoral college crap has allowed 2 usurpers to seize the office
away from the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED democrat.
OR/ one with the most votes.
Henry the 8 is a perfect parallel to maggot.
He also THINKS he has absolute power.
It ended badly for Henry, It will end badly for BLOTUS.
PS he couldn't lead a Jr. High school band.

(7,951 posts)This is very, very scary stuff. The emoticon cannot be used in this case. A woman who has devoted her entire adult life to public service is in jeopardy simply because a vengeful maniac is in charge. We need help.
