    Huh? You think it's "weird" that a President of the United States leaves office when their term is over and they lose re-election.

    That you would believe that is weird!

    LOL, you think there is a Republican talking point for this? That's rich...

    But I have no memory, and couldn't locate online, your reference to a Bush mob that somehow convinced the Supreme Court to overturn the 2000 election. What are you talking about?

    Considering you were posting about Trump being a dictator, the fact that he left office IS weird!

    Worst dictator ever.

    The correct label is wannabe, failed dictator. No one said he was successful. But he's done more than anyone else in US history to try to have himself installed as an unelected President.

    Hey aren't you supposed to be showing my quotes that I defended Trump's comments? That was your claim.

    Still waiting.

    I'm not responsible for your refusal to read posts. I know this will be a controversial statement to some, but it isn't okay for someone to try to steal an election and install themselves as an unelected dictator instead. That's what Trump attempted. But at least you seem aware that you have no excuse for this concept and just want to run and hide from it instead.

    You simply want to pontificate and not back up your claim?

    Still waiting for those quotes.

    Despite your desperation to hide from what we are now talking about, this has already been addressed.

    If democrats thought Trump wanted to eliminate the Constitution they'd be begging him to run as a democrat.

    As near as I can determine, that statement doesn't check out factually. So how about showing those quotes?

    As near as I can determine, you are willing to say so but aren't willing to discuss it. Care to point out anyone who has done more in our country's history to try to install themselves as an unelected president.

    This has already been addressed. Try reading. But, hey, I get it, you can't actually discuss the current topic so you are looking for another excuse to hide.

    Trump "being" a dictator? What the hell are you talking about?

    If you're trying to justify your original post in which you denied that Trump said what he DID say by making up nonsense, save it! Not interested.

    Stephanopoulos interjected that it is “an extraordinary statement” by a former president, and more directly asked, “you can’t come out against someone who supports suspending the constitution?”

    “He says a lot of things, but that doesn’t mean that it’s ever going to happen,” Mr Joyce responded.

    You made a statement regarding something you claim I said, and you've not taken it back, so unless you are going to apologize, the challenge is for you to prove your claims.

    OK and you said that I said that? Don't recall it. Please provide the quote, and while you're at it, what about that Bush mob that intimidated the Supreme Court? Weren't you supposed to provide that story?

    Yes, he said it on National TV. I was ironing my suit for a funeral when he said it. I remember the moment very well.

    No candidate in history, nor former president in history claimed the following:

    1. That his opponents tampered with ballots, got dead people to vote, got people to vote more than once, tampered with ballots, tampered with machines, etc., on a scale large enough to steal the election, and continued to shout this false claim without evidence in the largest bullhorn in the world, the bully pulpit, and did it at every rally week after week up until the election, and continued to do it for two years following his loss.
    2. Because of this belief for which no evidence was ever presented to success in any court of law, suggested that all the relevate rules and laws, including relevant parts of the constitution should be terminated and a new election held.

    And no, I've only applied this to the politician to did the above, and that would be only one politician in history, Donald Trump.
    On the above point, Trump made his point clear.

    On other points, we all experiences gaffs, but no politician in history has butchered the English language as Trump has. the man can't even utter a compound sentence. He is wholly unqualified and unfit to be president.
    Obama's academic records have never been 'sealed'. He hasn't released them, but he's made no effort to conceal them. He doesn't have to, the colleges are not allowed to release academic records without consent. But, I have not seen evidence he went out of his way to conceal his records, though Trump's lawyers threatened the schools and college he attended to not release his records.
