“You're allowed to mope for a week and half, maybe two,” President Barack Obama told Democratic National Committee members on a conference call. “But after that, we’ve got to brush ourselves off and get to work.” […]

Turn that energy into some good old-fashioned riots. White people who look like they might be employed make excellent targets.

It is entertaining that Obama nor Clinton say anything about the system being designed to be one of limited government and that the founders worried about one branch being more powerful than another so they came up with 3 co-equal branches to keep things in check. But, I guess, that is not what Democrats nor democracy is all about.

Both Democrats and RINOs need to disappear when Trump pulls the plug to drain the swamp.
