    So of the last 2 republican presidents, one successfully stole the election, and the other led a coup in an attempt to steal it. Not a great track record for the last few decades.

      • Nixon - election tampering (Watergate)
      • Reagan - election tampering (Iran Contra)
      • Bush Sr - probably legally elected, just used super racist ads
      • Bush jr - coup
      • Trump - election tampering and attempted coup

      Of the last 5 Republicans, only one was legally elected.
