45. "It doesn't matter how he got elected". The hell you say! IF this was true---and it is not---

there would be no chance that we could employ the laws and customs you purport to revere, for they would have vanished.

As for him getting elected "by our laws", where does our law say massive voter suppression is ok? Where does our law say soliciting and accepting assistance from Russia, one of our adversaries, is ok?

As for your admonition that "Republicans will do the same thing in the future", if ever a Democrat is as mentally unstable, corrupt, arrogant and traitorous as Trump, I and every other Democrat worthy of the name will JOIN the Republicans in ousting him as expeditiously as possible.
