Hoyer: Dems are 'majority voice'
By Susan Ferrechio (@susanferrechio) • 11/30/16 3:59 PM

House Democrats have a responsibility to fight for the "majority voice" of voters who rejected Republicans and President-elect Trump, House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer said Wednesday.

Hoyer, D-Md., said during a news conference that more people in the November election "voted for the agenda that this leadership group represents" and not for Republicans, who retained the majority in the House, the Senate and recaptured the White House.

Hoyer made the remarks after the caucus re-elected him to serve as whip under Nancy Pelosi, who was re-elected minority leader.

Steny is just continuing what Obama said in 2014 after the Republicans gained even more in the House and Senate that the majority of the people weren't represented by the outcome and he was going to speak for the voiceless and those that didn't vote.

They never see any win by a Republicans legitimate.  Ever.

Keep it up Steny. Staying in your sterile bubble and avoiding hard truths will guarantee you clowns will be out of power forever.
