The question is will the Dems be "election deniers" if this election doesn't go the way they want?

Hillary Clinton falsely claimed the 2016 election was stolen and Donald Trump is an illegitimate president

It is genuinely scary the media you’ve been consuming hasn’t informed you of this.

It's scarier you eat this shit up. Hillary Clinton called him on election night and conceded.

Donald Trump has yet to concede despite mountains of evidence that he lost. That you can't tell the difference says a lot about how gullible you are.

When you scratch the surface of the avalanche of lies, very little actual evidence is there. People have done this journalism. Trump lost in elections where republican governors and congressional candidates and senators won. If this were a democratic conspiracy, and it's not, then that wouldn't have happened because they would have taken those seats too. Trump is a loser, he's always been a loser, and he barely won his first election. It's much more reasonable to believe that the majority of Americans were sick of his bullshit.

Are you aware you are consuming biased media?

Yes. All sources have bias. Even media companies with strong right-wing bias have accepted that Trump lost fair and square.

Are you aware that you're consuming media without fact checking or editorial standards?

There's a huge difference between having a difference of opinion about the relevance of facts and making up facts without fact-checking them.

The only conspiracy here is that you believe literally everything the elite want you to.

Listen, i don’t think you’re necessarily an idiot, but right now, you’re certainly acting like one.

You don't think Donald Trump is elite? Rudolph Giuliani? These are elites by any measure of the word and you believe them. Why?

By most measures my education makes me elite and I, too, have looked into these allegations of voter fraud and everything that I looked into was baseless.

I don't think you're necessarily unhinged from reality but...

If they were really elite, then they wouldn’t have been ostracized by the other elites.

You have been brainwashed by what you’ve seen in the media so hard you’re incapable of reading the evidence presented to you. If you were a rational person, you’d say “wow, I was wrong.”

You have some odd ideas about how you think "elites" work. What's more elite than being a billionaire whose daddy bought his way into Wharton? I'm nowhere near as elite as Trump, yet I know people who are more elite than me who have been ostracized for their bad behavior.

Trump was ostracized because he bragged about grabbing women by the pussy without permission. He was ostracized in NY circles for being a slumlord and failing to pay people who do work for him. He was ostracized in political circles for race-baiting and shitting on everyone who disagrees with him. He was ostracized by the media for calling them the enemy whenever they asked him hard questions. He had more turnover in his cabinet than any other modern administration and more successful prosecutions for perjury as well.

You can't behave like an asshole, regardless of how elite you are, and expect to not get kicked out of the club. You can't behave that way as a normal person and expect to keep your friends, so it's just funny to me that you choose to believe someone who has shown such a poor lack of emotional control and moral character over anyone else.

It's a very strange choice to make and it makes me wonder how many friends you actually have, if this is the type of person you look up to.

The Power Elite

>The Power Elite is a 1956 book by sociologist C. Wright Mills, in which Mills calls attention to the interwoven interests of the leaders of the military, corporate, and political elements of society and suggests that the ordinary citizen in modern times is a relatively powerless subject of manipulation by those three entities.

I understand what an elite is, but I think it's funny that you somehow don't think Donald Trump is one of them. Trusting him, in the face of his documented lies, is insane.

Fitzgeraldfan7193829 t1_iub89va wrote

All evidence points to Donald Trump running a campaign against these elites, and then them turning on him, and because (they) control the media and you listen to the media, you hate Trump.

Why do you think literally every single objectively elite person is/was against Donald Trump?

I’m trying to spell this out for you. I don’t know why I’m doing this. You’re objectively wrong, but you’re unintelligent, so you can’t see it.

Because he's been recorded talking about sexually assaulting women, amongst many other reasons. I personally don't associate myself with people who behave that way and elite people, likewise, often choose to avoid people who treat others that way.

You can take your condensation and shove it. Welcome to my blocked list.

I responded to a question about 'Dems' not about Hillary Clinton. Regardless, not sure of the specific context of the claims of illegitimacy in your video, but Trump was surely aided by Putin, an enemy of the US.

They already are. Clinton is already predicting the future about how this and the presidential election will be “fraudulent”.
