Of course not! Why would Republicans be impressed by empathy and kindness?

In Jesus famous words "Do not worry about other people".
When it's fake, when it's just a performance, it's not impressive.

And if we don't like the outcome of the ballot box, we get to obey the law anyway. . .that's how it works in a republic.
It is a shame your current president doesn't feel that way,
If you don't know what it means, why are you opposed to it?
Cheap, evasive rhetorical tricks don't advance your position, they simply expose it.

That's part of the package. . .ain't republics great?

I'll have to figure out my position before I can develop cheap evasive rhetorical tricks to advance it.

In the meantime, I'll just enjoy what is, along with the rest of the majority who put him there.

Plurality. Trump did not get the majority of the vote but a mere plurality.

A "mere"?. . .49.8% to 48.3%. . .Trump had 2,300,000 more votes.

Works for me. . .

The difference of 0.2 percent. Whoopee
Check your math. . .

The difference is 1.5%, or 2.3 million votes between the Republican and Democrat candidates.

0.2 percent would have given Trump a majority.
Edit make that 0.3, he had to exceed 50%

I guess its not enough to just win the election. We have to add to the glory with contrived claims.
Contrived is in the eye of the beholder. . .the numbers bear them out.

I never paid any attention to the difference between a majority and a plurality until someone pointed it out
