Dems: win fair and square, win the pop vote, "not liking that it was so close."

Reps: win through voter suppression, intimidation, actual fraud (NC), mass media bias (hundreds of millions of free coverage for Trump), don't win the popular vote, elect literal felons and dead people. "MAGA!"

Gotta start fighting fire with fire.

The Yellow Dogs are about to return.

Including but not limited to running Democratic candidates as Republicans and then switching their party after they are elected.

Look at how many of them do it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_party_switchers_in_the_United_States#2010%E2%80%93present

It's a scourge. We must fight fire with fire. Period.
