You could remind him of the “battle of Athens,Tn.”
I’d have to bone up on that story first...?
Wow. I Googled it and I’m amazed at that story.
A friend just reminded me about how Republicans stormed the building where votes were supposed to be counted in the Florida controversy of 2000...GOP militants raged and rallied and screamed and stomped and occupied the hallways and rooms of the building, because otherwise the ballots were going to be counted in secret—I’d forgotten about that, but since my friend brought it up I recalled the scene as it was shown on TV at that time. What an encouraging reminder, that the GOP can sometimes fight back!
