Great summary. People should also know that Bush’s brother Jeb had Florida’s voter rolls purged tens of thousands of people from Florida’s voter rolls. Half were African American for just having a name similar to a felon in the US.
“Jeb Bush’s secret weapon:
94,000 people on a voter "purge" list -- half of them African-American -- continue to be banned from voting in Florida, even though the state knows the list is wildly inaccurate.”
How come the last one says 2016-2017 when J6 was in 2021? I'm confused or missing something. The Brooks Brothers Riot has always made me so mad, and the Supreme Court stopping the count was egregious. We know Gore won.
“Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.” But after at least a decade of Trump—and, as you demonstrate, decades of Republican behavior—have we normalized what once should have been disqualifying? I’m not sure anyone feels shame anymore. Instead, many voters are angry at both parties and see them as equally guilty. That’s a false equivalence, as you demonstrate. But the bigger problem is that shame has never been enough to hold Republicans accountable. Under Trump, repeated misconduct stopped being a scandal and became the accepted norm. The next election and ensuring changes in governance and leadership may reverse this normalization.
With this history of lies and subterfuge to get their way we see who these Republicans really are. No wonder they attack elections that they lose as fake. Once again they’re projecting their misdeeds on Democrats.
I will say they’ve become quite adept at this constant lying . Practice they have practiced their lies for many years right till this day.
Democrats need to be prepared to fight this trickery .
No likelihood of any real change from these criminals under the big Criminal DJ Trump.
And, you are going to witness Elmo-the-Subtractor doing his space age magic, yet again, on 3-4 November 2026.

Even back then when candidates were “normal” Republicans they knew they had to cheat to win.

"2016-2017" was a mistake. We quickly fixed it to "2020-2021." Thanks for asking about it. We try to get things right around here.
Thanks for reminding us Mark.
keep speaking the truth. Americans are starving for truth

Democrats must not accept this lie from Republicans . It’s become so apparent that they’ve just gotten better at lying over the years.
Draw a line , hold these liars accountable.
