performed miracles turning the economy around with the help of other Democrats and in spite of unprecedented obstruction.
The election was racism and misogyny.
Oh, and Russian oligarch meddling, lots of that. Oh and dont forget crosscheck, preventing a million or more black people from voting or having their cast votes counted.
