But that’s thin gruel to subsist on right now, because my fellow Americans did this. They wanted this, and I’ll never again take it as a given that they’re a good and kind people. The cost is too high.

Then leave.

Actually, this article is about four years late.

Democracy was actually resurrected yesterday.

It’s not clear from the excerpt, but how exactly did democracy die when there was an election?

The Chronicle publishing some random person’s deranged tantrum is the funniest thing I’ve read today, and there’s a lot of competition this morning.

They didn’t learn anything at all last night.

I see that Drew still hasn’t recovered from his self-inflicted brain damage...

[butlerweave]

All those people that voted for Trump say otherwise and saved the US from the EVIL democrats for now

[DesertRhino]

OK Drew, go cry on your husband’s shoulder. I guess it’s a bitch to get back what you give out. Progressives are amazing. They assume that the loan process the permanent mantle of government.

[kiryandil]

He’s got residual brain damage.

Seriously.

[cgbg]

The last refuge of your hard core leftist....

is to attack the voters.

[Flaming Conservative]

What a pant load! And the really awful part is, their readers think they’re telling the truth!

[kiryandil]

Perhaps Drew and his wife should start seeing other men.

No, no, no

Democracy was UPHELD when they decided the democratic POTUS candidate would be hand-selected via star chamber and ignored the nomination process.

See how that works?

Constitution Republic.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep deciding what’s for dinner.

[rightwingcrazy]

Democracy is all the millions of illegal immigrants being bused to your sanctuary city, because you said you love them, and flouted federal law.

[SpaceBar]

That earlier Babylon Bee article about the dems wanting to abolish the popular vote just met the real-world example.

[MtnClimber]

More “Disinformation Crimes”. No bail until the trial. We have learned how that works and now payback should be harsh. Trials delayed for years...and years...and years. Who did we learn this from?

[motor_racer]

When the MSM and the Democrat party say “democracy” they mean “permanent one-party rule by the Democrat party, with a docile Republican party giving cover to make it LOOK like a democracy.”

But, hey, its a Republic!

This guy is unhinged
