Democrats are the most corrupt and hypocritical group of people in America.

For 4 years, they have cried foul over Presaident Donald Trump’s victory in 2016. 

Hillary Clinton still thinks she should be president to this day, because she’s just as corrupt and delusional as the rest.

Now, after the 2020 election has been prematurly called by the media, Democrats are mad because president Trump hasn’t yet conceded.

Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell isn’t having any of it.

McConnel just blasted Democrats for their hypocrisy.

In his first commnts since the media called the election, McConnell had this to say:

“Let’s not have any lectures, no lectures, about how the president should immediately, cheerfully accept preliminary election results from the same characters who just spent four years refusing to accept the validity of the last election and who insinuated that this one would be illegitimate too if they lost again.”

Here's more on McConnell's comments from the New York Post:

President Trump should not be expected to “cheerfully, immediately” accept the outcome of the contested 2020 race and is “100 percent within his rights” to challenge the results, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said in a speech from the Senate floor on Monday.

In his first remarks since Joe Biden was called the winner of the presidential election based on projections, McConnell defended Trump’s use of litigation to challenge vote counts in various states and blasted Democrats like Hillary Clinton for claiming Trump would try to steal the election.

“Let’s not have any lectures, no lectures, about how the president should immediately, cheerfully accept preliminary election results from the same characters who just spent four years refusing to accept the validity of the last election and who insinuated that this one would be illegitimate too if they lost again — only if they lost,” the Kentucky Republican said.

“The people who push this hysteria could not have any more egg on their faces than they do right now,” McConnell said of charges that foreign countries would interfere in the presidential election, highlighting the hundreds of millions that had been spent to fortify election security.

While calling for every legal vote to be counted, McConnell, who just won his own re-election in a landslide, said the commander-in-chief was “100 percent within his rights to look into allegations of irregularities and weigh his legal options.”

Reuters has more on McConnell, who says that the president is "100% within his rights to look into allegations."

The top Republican in the U.S. Congress on Monday said President Donald Trump was well within his rights to look into charges of “irregularities” in last week’s election, which has been called for Democrat Joe Biden, but did not offer any evidence of fraud.

Trump, a Republican, has yet to acknowledge defeat two days after Biden secured enough votes in the state-by-state Electoral College to win. On Monday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said he backed Trump’s launch of a legal fight into claims of voter fraud.

“President Trump is 100% within his rights to look into allegations of irregularities and weigh his legal options,” McConnell said. Before addressing the Senate, McConnell met privately with Attorney General William Barr.

Just a handful of Senate Republicans have congratulated Biden on his victory. One of them, Senator Susan Collins, told reporters Monday evening that she thought the president’s legal challenges are “unlikely to change the outcome” of the election.

But most Republican lawmakers have either said the president’s lawsuits should be allowed to play out, or avoided public comment on the election results.

Conservatives with spines defended President Trump's right to contest the results of the election on Twitter.
