Opinion: Trump wins again. Will Democrats now practice what they've preached on democracy?
Opinion by Ingrid Jacques, USA TODAY • 1h

I will never forget the shock I felt late on Election Day 2016, when it started to look like Donald Trump would pull off a longshot victory over Hillary Clinton.

In the early morning hours of the next day, it became clear Trump had sealed the deal.

And now, he’s done it again.
 

Kudos to the president on his victory.

While I have concerns about how Trump will begin his second term in office, including whether he’ll be able to bring together a strong Cabinet and top-notch advisers, I have an even more pressing worry:

Whether Democrats will accept the results of this election and come to terms with Trump as president.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Odd, isn't it, how 4 years ago, this very day, the MSM was loaded with obituaries of Trump and the Republican Party.  Yet today, they've already started their suck-up with little ditties like the one above in hopes he doesn't come after them for all their lies and distortions. :doglick:

Nope. Rats have two modes - boot on your neck, or knife in the back. The hypocrisy is so thick you could build a football stadium on it.
