It’s almost nostalgic, for the wrong reasons. It came upon me a few minutes ago to realize this. They go parallel with eachother that 20 years ago, people had the same exact defeatist reaction when George W Bush got re-elected when people thought he wouldn’t.

Now, 20 years later, when people thought Trump wouldn’t get elected again, here we are.

      The Supreme Court when they decided to stop the Florida recount and just let Bush be president.

      He wasn’t elected; he was appointed.
