yep....... If I remember right.... with the votes siphoned off by Perot.......Clinton got a real vote count of 23 percent? I don't remember how they got to that number, but Bush ended up even worse.

Some dim has introduced legislation that would give presidency to highest vote getter, so last years 'travesty' will never be repeated.
It will be interesting to see how Antifa/BLMs clubs and masks hold up against the rights rifles.

I heard somebody, probably a Democrat, wants to abolish the presidency itself.
This is what I meant about burning it all down.
