    Here we go again.

    This is popping up all over the place these days. That’s Not Good™.

    But dude, you lost less than a rounding error of your wealth, your candidate lost by a double-digit margin, and he conceded promptly and gracefully. This is like sending EMS to a burglary at a vacant home. Read the fucking room; this tactic won’t fly this go 'round.

    I have a wild idea, let’s move to a better voting system like ranked choice or MMPR (whilst we still have ‘representative’ democracy at least) so claims like this are more likely to be laughed at.
