4. Republicans have forgotten what elections are for, if they ever knew.

It is to determine the will of the people, and know that your policies and actions are backed by the people we’ve gotten off that track partially because of the electoral college thing but mostly because of Trump. People don’t cheat elections they give honest information. now we have Republicans claiming they have a mandate to rip the constitution to shreds. When in fact, they can only lose three or four votes and still have the majority in the House, that’s a slim margin not a mandate.
