Let me say it again, another way.
America cannot long function as a democracy unless everybody believes in the concept of a democracy.
We cannot endure long, if one side truly believes every time they lose, they were somehow cheated. But if they win, then it’s fair.
Eventuality the Republicans are not going to bother to vote in any close election. The elections are all rigged anyway, they’ll reason.
One party rule is terrible, no matter which party rules.
The Democrats have not patented truth, and have no monopoly on ideas for better governance.
"if one side truly believes every time they lose, they were somehow cheated. But if they win, then it’s fair."
not the first time "I've" lost, but it's the first time I believe the election was rigged. all kinds of anomalies involved in 2020 election.
however, the Demonrats use that "cheated" quite a bit; like "Trump was an illegitimate President"
and I'll agree, we can't and probably won't last long at this rate.
