The Con really said elections have consequences

https://www.elitedaily.com/p/these-tweets-about-trump-saying-elections-have-consequences-are-going-in-15793924

President Trump has a message for you. He wants you to know that, because he won the presidency, he should have the final say on this border wall drama. "Elections have consequences!" he declared on Twitter. But because the internet can rarely be serious when it comes to Trump's tweets, they're making jokes out of his post. Here are just some of the tweets about Trump saying "elections have consequences" and they're seriously going in on him.


This all started on Saturday, Jan. 12, when Trump took to Twitter to announce that he has a plan to end the partial government shutdown, which stems from a stalemate over funding for border security. But to understand that plan, he wrote:

You would have to understand the fact that I won the election, and I promised safety and security for the American people. Part of that promise was a Wall at the Southern Border. Elections have consequences!

But trump and the gop I guess didn't learn anything from that. 2020 will be enlightening again for these criminals when the next election gets here, and especially for all the horrible things they're involved in , and with putin , and with this shutdown. Its just a matter of time they realize they are finished, and will pay for their crimes. Especially trump and his family.

Are they not aware that they lost the most recent election and they should expect consequences?
