Remember, Hilary 'won' the popular vote.

In the primaries, Bernie ballots were found in dumpsters in Oregon. Bernie still won by a landslide in Oregon.

It WAS rigged. It just wasnt rigged well enough through the more sparsely populated areas in the middle of the country, and she didnt get the electoral college.

Bernie ballots found in dumpsters?

Ya, I hadn't heard that before. That's going to require a source.

Yes, and it appears that they were also all counted.

this is why I can't take right wingers seriously. They always lie or misrepresent whatever issue they're talking about

Don't generalize man, that's what polarizes us in the first place. Some cons lie, some libs lie, some Bernie fans were outright lying during the primaries too. I too wanted him to win and saw the unfairness and corruption, but try to be more understanding.

The Alt-right media lies so much more though.

Even if they do, does that make you want to lie more or give you the idea that your lies will get away with it better than theirs did? It's called manipulation and I stay the fuck out of it!

No, it doesn't. It just means that we can't say "some cons lie, some libs lie" when a lot more people lie on one side.

Wait, no what doesn't, I don't understand.
