I never thought I'd live to see the day when a 74 year old loser [View all]

continues to take on every branch of government rather than admit that he lost the election.
This shit has been going on since November 3. How do parents teach their children to learn to lose graciously while watching this fucking lunatic and his enablers.

They have made it pellucidly clear- power over democracy.
