It pisses me off to no end when: [View all]

I listen to pundits talk about how the Democrats lost the election. No they didn't lose it. First of all, Hillary won by 3,000,000 votes. Secondly and more importantly, the repukes cheated. They cheated just enough in 3 Northern States to put trump over the top in the Electoral College. In addition to massive voter suppression, they colluded with the Russians and I have a feeling that most of the top repukes were in on it from day one. That's one of the reasons they staled the Supreme Court confirmation. Why don't the fucking pundits point that out and some real reporting for a change.
