that it was inconceivable that he actually lost the popular vote by 3 mill. That it was all 'fake' and 'corrupt' and whatever other BS spewed from his yap at the time. And, as you said, he was pushing the same BS even before the election. But because he won the EC, and the big prize, he kind of let that whole schtick drop after several months. Then again, the whole last fours years have been, in one way or another, a constant whine fest and petulant statement of grievances against anyone who wouldn't 'bend the knee', so to speak, to his most stupendous self. How does all that grandiosity fit into one very thick skull?
