Progressives must start resisting Donald Trump now
You can also find previous episodes on YouTube here.
Americans elected President Obama with the absolute most number of Americans than any President in American history. Hell, he had to expand the base to win. He won by over 9 million votes in his first election and by almost 5 million votes in his reelection. Republicans, the Right Wing, and the TEA Party consistently treated him like an illegitimate president. Obama won with a mandate. Obama never bragged about winning in an electoral landslide or a popular vote landslide. He did not need to. Facts are facts.
Contrast that with the undemocratically illegitimate President-Elect Donald Trump. He is losing the popular vote by over 3 million votes. He had help from the Kremlin, Russia’s President Vladimir Putin, and the Republican head of the FBI. He won four states by less than 100 thousand votes. In several of those states, their Republican leaders acknowledged their voter suppression techniques had a purpose. That along with other shenanigans were successful.
We will discuss why we must never let Americans forget that Donald Trump is an undemocratically illegitimate president.
