Re: Suck it up

>Your chosen candidate failed to win the election? Tough, suck it up - that's what a democracy is about.

Are you sure? So why do we bother having an opposition in parliament? Why do lawmakers bother with debates? Why not just give all power to the guy who won, whether it was fairly or not and give him free reign to do what he wants?

You clearly don't know what democracy is about, or more likely, your guy won.

In a democracy, people have the right to bitch about stuff. A lot of people have been bitching about stuff for years. Trump noticed, created a bandwagon, got all of them to jump aboard and got himself a position where he might be able to represent those people.

A lot of people don't like this. They don't think he will represent them and don't really think he'll represent those desperate people who believed his rhetoric.

The difference between him and previous presidents is during his campaign he openly stated that he intended to persecute people.
