    @AroundTheWorld this donkey supported this dipshit. Is there genuinely anyone you support who turns out to be good?

    I am not desperately (or desparately) trying to do anything. A claim was made (via two quoted tweets) that Hilary Clinton did not claim the election was stolen. I posted a video of Clinton claiming the election was stolen, clearly disproving that claim. It is called providing video evidence to directly disprove an assertion.

    When it comes to defending republicans you're always right around the corner...lol. Disturbing you're a prosecutor in a very liberal state, more so disturbing are your political beliefs. It's like if I handed @Commodore the keys to counting the election in swing states, you know that jackass is gonna go the Stalin route.

    yes you are trying equating Hillary's action pertaining to the 2016 election to Putin's useful idiot's for 2020.

    while Trump incited riot, used fake electors to defraud the process, defamed poll workers, Hillary did not.​

    I didn't equate anything. There was a claim presented and I provided evidence the claim was not true.
    I didn't defend anyone, I countered a claim made about Hilary Clinton. Two tweets were posted in which it stated she didn't challenge the 2016 election/claim it was stolen. I posted a video of her saying that the election was stolen. If someone posted a claim that Trump never said the election was stolen, I could very easily post a video disproving that. I don't know why you would be disturbed that I am a prosecutor in a very liberal state. Do you imagine we have a lot of politically charged cases or something? Would my political beliefs affect my ability to fairly prosecute an alleged robber?

    I agree with you on a factual basis. You are a lawyer. You pigeonhole people into an answer without nuance. That is your job. However, I believe you would agree Hillary's claim of a stolen election was substantially different than Trump's. Hillary was complaining about Russian interference. Trump was stating our entire election process was rigged.

    Yes, I would agree they were making different complaints about the methodology by which they claimed their loss was illegitimate. I would say Trump had many scattershot complaints (fraudulent votes being cast, fraudulent counting of votes, changing rules at a time when rules should not be changed, complaints about the courts, I am probably missing more).

    Did Hillary Clinton try to overturn the election through legal or illegal means?

    I’d loooove to hear what Trump and his supporters would have said if had won the popular vote by millions as well like Clinton did. Trumps mind would have melted with rage.

    It’s such a joke that there are only 2 real options in this country and they are as bad as Clinton and Biden are. That it causes people to trick their head into supporting a horrible human being like Trump. A man with so many bad qualities you could write a lengthy book on them. The amount of time and wasted energy on people across this country twisting facts and then lying to justify this POS is comical. Keep doing it though, life well spent!

    It must be too hard for them to accept they were conned by a sociopath, so they try their best to keep defending his crazy.

    Whelp Paxton is getting off with restitution, community service and required ethics training.

    It’s good to be Republican grifter especially in Texas.

    Two good men. And a good company (even though my Eric Gordon fun meter was low when I worked there). Fun fact, John Legend worked at BCG as well. Smart guy.
