"How To Steal An Election" comment

How to steal an election: a) vote-stuff (Pootin's method), raising the apparent percentage of the population that voted, or b) vote-steal by intercepting ballots (the easier method), decreasing the apparent percentage of the population that voted, and utterly reversing the historic trend of winning a decreasing percentage of the popular vote -- this appears to be DUHnocchio's "secret". Like Gore, Kamala should not have conceded.

"The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average Trump voter." (updated from something that Winston Churchill probably never said)

It's official - RepuGNican Americans lack νοῦς. Not only are they not bright enough to realize that DUHnocchio does not care about them or keep promises, but they will be too "challenged" to realize that they are ultimately responsible for the economic slump, job losses, educational deterioration, health crises, and other woes that they have brought upon themselves. Unfortunately, the harm will not be confined to those improvident enough to vote for Felonious Trump.

A fitting comment on the harm that RepuGNicans have ignorantly wrought:
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. 
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
