5. The will of the people?
Mon May 1, 2017, 01:22 PM
May 2017

Refresh my memory: Didn't the Democrat poll some 2.8 million more votes than the Republican? Didn't Democratic candidates in the House and Senate poll more votes than the Republicans? Republicans really should give that "will of the people" thing a rest right now. Their majorities are solely the creation of their own gerrymandering of districts, caging of Democratic voters, and wholesale disenfranchisement of likely Democratic voters. That's the stuff of a dictator's, not the vox populi.
