People called on the electoral college to overturn the vote of the people in 2016 —- and several did. I’m not sure how much more brazen you can be about trying to overturn an election’s results.

How much more brazen can you be? Turn on the goddamn news today. Show me a list of democratic congressmen who voted against certification in 2016. Show me when Obama pressured his VP to toss electors. Show me a barrage of completely bullshit lawsuits. Show a phone call from the incumbent asking to miraculously find votes.

This "both sides" bullshit needs to stop.

I can't do 2016 but I can do 2005 - https://www.cnn.com/2005/ALLPOLITICS/01/06/electoral.vote/

Hmm I wonder if Kerry had conceded by then...

I can do thousands of Trump supporters literally storming the capital by force at this moment, encouraged by a sitting President who has convinced them the election was stolen from him[0].

You'll have no luck with this crowd. Surprising amount of literal traitors out here.
