Bill Mahr New Rules ends with a finger pointed at those who saw HRC and dRump as the lesser of

two evils. Loved it! So tired of people hitting out at HRC! We would not be where we are 100 days post inauguration. . . ACA would be protected . . . Supreme Court would have been protected for generations . . . my contempt for Gary Johnson and Jill Stein voters is endless! I already knew dRump voters where deplorable but after the Bush Gore debacle I never thought liberals could be sooooooooo?!?!$&!?!

the popular vote, just like I see people's point about the Russian hacking and Wikileaks.

But I tend not to focus on any of these things for one simple reason: it feels like we are minimizing the extent of what James Comey has done--the horror of what James Comey has done.

The FBI repeatedly abused their power in order to hurt the Democrats and help the Republicans. This is an unbelievable threat to our democracy. Comey scares me more than Trump does.

like Gore and even Kerry actually won the election if all the votes had been counted and outside influences had been controlled. At the same time if the Dems don't get control of the voting booths to assure all votes are counted and people are not barred through voter suppression nothing we do to try to regain control of the three bodies of government will matter. I am beyond understanding how Obama and the Dems had to know what was happening with Russia and its interference - Putin is now having fun in European elections.

Who go on and on sanctimoniously about how they don't follow politics, didn't trust HRC and couldn't vote for Trump (supposedly) so they either didn't vote or voted for the confused guy or the Russian supported woman. If they stay quiet I tolerate them, the minute they open their mouths I cross them off my list. I'm old and I've had lots of friends, I don't mind losing bad ones.
