> even if they mumbled about 'not my President' more like shouted it at the top of their lungs for 4 years straight > I would love for you to provide citations and references for your claims that people questioned the validity of the 2016 election > there was no one claiming that the election was stolen. I mean, I lived the 2016 election I remember the response of my left leaning friends, and some of them absolutely believed the election was rigged. Some quick googling can dig up lots of articles from 2016: https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/hillary-clinton-suggests-2016-election-was-stolen-from-her https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/hillary-clinton-sugg... https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/opinions/wp/2016/12/16/the-2016-election-was-stolen-got-a-nicer-way-to-say-that/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/opinions/wp/2016/12/16/t... https://www.lwv.org/newsroom/press-releases/2016-presidential-election-was-rigged https://www.lwv.org/newsroom/press-releases/2016-presidentia...

None of those articles contain claims that votes were changed (election fraud) or that voters voted repeatedly or illegally (voter fraud). They do contain claims of voter suppression, which I'll note continue to be made by those on the left this year (and in 2018 and in pretty much every election, disenfranchisement is an ongoing concern on the left).

Voter suppression (widely studied, widely documented, not even up for debate at this point) and a candidate complaining about several factors I already noted, but no claim of actual vote rigging or attacking the legitimacy of the vote. Weak sauce. No wonder no one has any respect for so-called conservatives. They are the most fragile of snowflakes and seem to need to live in their own little safe space.
