Hillary literally said it a bunch of times.

Hillary was bitching about how the electoral college was a sham.
When she lost, she gave up like she was supposed to.

So because she won the popular vote, the EC is a sham?? Dems carried on for months about abolishing the electoral college, something that has elected every president outside of assassinations. .

Yes, that's why it's a sham. In an actual democratic system, the most votes wins.
> Dems carried on for months about abolishing the electoral college
Yes, that's because it's a terrible idea that only serves a very vocal minority. None of them are saying "Let's storm the Capitol, execute the people we don't like, and then get rid of the EC.". That's just Republicans.

Oh well, that’s how we elect presidents.

Oh well, guess women and black people can't vote. Oh wait, they can, because you can change things that sucked in the original. Like the Electoral College and allowing political parties to exist.
Kissfan07 t1_itucj3u wrote
They do exist.
alongfield t1_itudp72 wrote
Yes, that's literally what I said. If you actually knew anything about the Constitution, you would've already known that.

The electoral college is a sham because it allows the president to be chosen by a small number of "elites" instead of the people, which is what should exist. Now, of course that's a matter of opinion. But to pretend Hillary tried staging an insurrection by bitching about the electoral college is intellectually dishonest.

It’s not dishonest. All I heard for a year was how she won the popular vote, and how she should be president.

That you are literally trying to equate an armed raid on the Capitol incited by the loser of the election with the express intent of disrupting a constitutionally mandated process (and harm elected officials) with someone being vocal about a corrupt and inequitable system if voting is fucking mind blowing.
Where can i get whatever the fuck you are smoking.

You guys make it out like it was the civil war. A bunch of nut jobs went to the capitol. Wow.
disco_t0ast t1_itucxb0 wrote
You're attempting to normalize and excuse sedition.
Wow.
Kissfan07 t1_itw4nky wrote
Not really. Just saying it’s done and over with.
disco_t0ast t1_itw4wf3 wrote
So is 9/11. So is the Holocaust. Should we act like they weren't significant events in history because they're "done and over with"?
Kissfan07 t1_itw556k wrote
Likes it’s even close in comparison.
disco_t0ast t1_itwafyj wrote
It doesn't need to be close. They are all significant in their own ways.
Jfc I am wasting my time and energy with you, little fucking pandemic-denying, anti-science MAGAt-fueled pissant.

You're right, at least with 9/11 the organizer got what he had coming to him. Trump is unfortunately still walking a free man.

To execute the vice president and violently force a despot to maintain power.
Finished that for you.
HaElfParagon t1_itxgk9y wrote
Right, all you heard for a year was bitching. Did anyone attempt an insurrection? No, only republicans have done so.
Kissfan07 t1_iu1x1t5 wrote
Not a big deal. Nothing was going to happen. You act like they were goi g to bring down DC.
HaElfParagon t1_iu47icq wrote
You've been really drinking the fox coolaid huh?
You realize they set up gallows specifically to publicly execute the vice president, right? just because they were horrifyingly incompetent doesn't mean they weren't trying to overthrow the government.

And assuming there are actual truthful sources for it, people didn't storm the capitol to kill Congress members, did they?

Just because you’ve down voted this ☝🏻 doesn’t mean it didn’t happen 🤣
alongfield t1_itrba24 wrote
I noticed that you STILL haven't provided any proof. You should try providing proof instead of crying about the well deserved downvotes.

Go on YouTube and type it in. Many videos.

OK got it, you have no proof and it never happened.
