"They want to stay in power without your consent" - Rachel Maddow


"If there is a party that is trying to cast doubt on elections, as the way we choose who is in power, it means they want to stay in power regardless of elections; they want to stay in power without your consent and without your ability to remove them, which means they do not want to serve you".

They got away with stealing that election for Bush. They knew that a full and fair recount would have won it for Gore. Right then, they knew that they could win and hold office without the voice of the voters on their side.

Democracy died in the 2000 election. They're just being more explicit.
