    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Nate Silver

    Precisely why it has been so toxic for our system to have a whole generation of Democrats who insist that the 2000 election was stolen by the Supreme Court & the 2016 election was stolen by Russians. No new GOP POTUS has been greeted as legitimate since 1988.https://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/1402325039731650561 …

    Maybe you could convince me the chances of the GOP subverting the election in 2024 are overrated—but it's not just a 2024 issue. If a whole generation of Republican elected officials believe in the Big Lie (or vouch for it for utilitarian reasons) you've got a long term problem.

        1988 was also the last time the GOP nominee won the popular vote on his first try. (Bush won it in 2004). Why are people still surprised that "oops, the guy who got fewer votes is president, twice" melted brains? https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1402326112953409545 …

        That was fringe in 2004. 2004 was just peak blogosphere time so you can find articles on the internet making all kinds of claims. Who was the Mike Lindell of Diebold?

        in related news, Harry Reid broke the filibuster. It had nothing to do Mitch McConnell denying President Obama a single federal judge nomination. That was legit!

        It‘s not going to help now with Republicans blatantly rigging the rules in numerous swing states…

        The birther shit was also a way to claim that Obama’s decisive victory was not legitimate. This has basically been a problem with every election since 2000, sadly. Though Trump (and sort of Kerry) are the only nominees who dumped fuel on the fire.

        Those can be bad (and should not be defended) and also it needs to be said that is a false equivalency. Like an extreme example of one. As always, Trump ends up being a worse example of what Trump supporters accuse the other side of being.
