There isn’t much to be said for this video other than it takes words from Democrats after Trump won the 2016 election and rubs their faces in it.
So many Democratic superstars claimed the election was “hacked” or “stolen” including Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Karine Jean-Pierre, Adam Schiff, Rob Reiner, Tom Arnold, and Chris Hayes, among many others. The list goes on and on from entertainers like late-night TV hosts to actors, actresses, and daytime TV hosts. Everyone who was anyone within the Democratic Party sphere said the 2016 election was inarguably stolen.
The idea that Donald Trump was an “illegitimate” President in 2016 ran through Democratic circles faster than an unpleasant rash at Bill Clinton’s birthday parties.
Here’s the video, then read on:
It’s almost nauseating to finish the entire thing as it goes on and on and on with the same disproven narratives and garbage “truths” about what happened in 2016. The election was either “stolen” or “hacked,” take your pick.
Hillary Clinton was the biggest election denier of the bunch complaining for months and years afterward that she ran a good campaign and won but it was taken from her in the end.
The video is accompanied by a fantastic Substack article written by Matt Taibbi and Matt Orfalea explaining the context of the video, specifically through the lens of the Jan. 6 sham hearings:
Led by the losing candidate in 2016, Democratic Party politicians along with law enforcement and intelligence officials and media spent years denying the legitimacy of Trump’s presidency, based on an equally specious/dishonest formulation: “The election was hacked.” Moreover, they instigated removal efforts based on the same declare-guilt-now, prove-it-later mentality that gripped figures like Trump and Rudy Giuliani in 2020. How different really is “Just say it was corrupt and leave the rest to me” from “We just have to dig deeper, do the investigation and find it”?
The January 6th hearings ironically are an outgrowth of the Democrats’ own six-year-long election denial endeavor, involving the same people who pushed attempts to remove Trump based on manufactured theories of foreign collusion. There’s an automatic Boy Who Cried Wolf factor built in to hearings that include the likes of California’s Adam Schiff (“I can’t go into the particulars, but there is more than circumstantial evidence now”) or Maryland’s Jamie Raskin (“Donald Trump is the hoax perpetrated on the Americans by the Russians”).
It’s stunning to watch the same people who droned and whined on about a stolen 2016 election turnaround and start claiming “threats to democracy” because Donald Trump challenged the result of the 2020 election. Speaking from both sides of their mouths, condemning Trump’s contesting of results in 2020 while contesting the 2016 results themselves over and over again.
It became so ubiquitous that, as the video portrays, petitions were started and potential lawsuits were happening in three states on behalf of the Clinton campaign to get to the bottom of Trump’s “collusion” with Russia.
Where did all this talk suddenly go? It’s been thrust down the memory hole never to be seen or spoken of again as if it never happened.
The threat to democracy began when Democrats set out on a quest to deny Donald Trump a legitimate victory by tainting his 2016 election with disproven claims of Russian collusion. From that point forward, it was Democrats, not “MAGA Republicans” bent on denying election results and vowing to rid the White House of Donald Trump, a duly elected president.
In a dovetail story, YouTube decided to “demonetize” the video meaning they won’t let the creator earn any revenue from advertising. The reason is because, well, YouTube, like other tech giants, is in bed with the Democratic Party agenda and doesn’t like being reminded of things like this.
It all bears repeating, however, as often as necessary to remind Democrats of their folly when it comes to claiming a “stolen” election whether it was 2016 or, quite frankly, 2000.
