This elections is nothing like 2000

That was one State that came down to like 500 votes and Gore was ahead in the poplar vote. Trump is behind 10's,20's,50's and 100's of thousand of votes across multiple States and losing the poplar vote by over 6 million and counting. Also Al Gore never tried to get State legislatures to overturn the results of the election. Do republicans who try compare this election to 2000 think we are stupid? Their voters might be dumb enough to believe it, but we know better.

SORE LOSERMAN! SORE LOSERMAN! REEE REEE REEE!111!!!!! The staged Brooks Brothers riot. Weeks of screeching and wailing and gnashing of teeth and rending of garments because Al Gore didn't just roll over on the night of Election Day. All this over a single state, with very a very close margin and plenty of issues with ballots and counting.

So many of their voters are stupid. Lots of them think Clinton was president when 9/11 happened, and the meltdown that caused the Great Recession was under Obama. Then they credit Trump with successful Obama policies. Sick of these brainwashed loons.
