Tweets by Nate Silver and Matt Glassman on the GOP

The GOP has turned to using the courts,voter suppression, and state legislatures to enact their extremist policies on issues such as abortion which are opposed by the majority.

Wins based on the electoral college rather than the popular vote will undermine faith in elections. All 25 presidential elections in the 1900s had the same result in the popular vote and electoral college. Two of the six elections in the 2000s have been won by the popular vote loser. Trump lost the popular vote by an unprecedented almost three million votes.

The Trump cult still rules the GOP

I guess they are cool with the potential indictments. Nothing will shake their devotion to their cult leader. Most other Republicans are too afraid of their voter base to challenge Trump on anything.
