Did you know that the Republican party and RNC hired fake electors to submit fake certification documents to washington which defied the vote counts and said that orange hog won in 7 battleground states?
Did you know that Republicans contested the results of an election through their legal recourses and prepared the necessary documentation and electors in case they won in court?
Okay, that's sure comparable to, lets see, checking my notes
- Overthrowing a lawfully elected Ukrainian government by force, banning the majority party, laying siege to separatist regions, murdering dissidents and journalists and using child soldiers to cling to power
- Overthrowing the Pakistani government by having the lawfully elected and clearly most popular politician in the country removed by a shadowy conspiracy of corrupt US/EU interests, then have him arrested and imprisoned by wielding US aid against them
- Trying to suppress the will of the Hungarian people and their representatives by wielding EU aid against them, trying to have Brussels impose its will on them like a vassal state and threaten them with economic oppression
- Trying to bar the most popular candidate in the American elections from being on the ballot, and weaponizing the state and federal justice departments to lay frivolous criminal charges against him and pray one sticks
- Barring third party candidates and parties from the ballot in battleground states by overt fraud, including refusing to certify the green party in north carolina despite meeting the signature threshold after having DNC operatives actually impersonate green party officials in attempts to get their supporters to rescind their signatures
Neoliberals sure love their small d democracy. But hey I shared some examples, if you don't like their track record, you can always screech for a chocolate bar
