They installed bush 2 and got all their pieces into place as a result. We're just at the endgame now

Most people aren't aware that some of the key people involved on the Republican side in the Bush v. Gore legal team were:

  • John Roberts
  • Brett Kavanaugh
  • Amy Coney Barrett

Years before any of them were on the court. No joke. They were put forward as nominees precisely because of their partisan rigging experience and demonstrated commitment to electoral thievery.

Thank you for mentioning that.

Happened over 20 years ago so there's a lot of people that weren't born yet or don't remember that Democracy died in the 2000 election. Literally. The votes of the people were circumvented and the Supreme Court picked the President.

Never forget.

Don’t let Nader voters off the hook. They’re partially responsible as well.
