    Yes, but the same thing happened in the campaign and he and Trump still went on to win the election.

    These “low turnout” events are nice, hilarious distractions from a country that STILL turned over the reins of power to these idiots.

    The rally turnout doesn’t matter. The schadenfreude doesn’t matter.

    What matters is when people show up to vote, and these empty arenas, like streets full of demonstrators after the fact, ultimately say WAY less about the US as a people than the victors of elections.

      What matters is that we turn out to vote, that those votes are counted fairly, and the result of the vote isn’t tampered with. And that, if there is any electoral fuckery, we string 'em up.
