    Okay well two Democrats out of 45.1 Million, so sure, “the Dems have been trying to convince us it’s normal” okay.

    I haven’t seen it, I’d call those two idiots, and I haven’t heard it, but if those are indeed verifiable examples you could use it for hyperbolic effect and not to be taken seriously.

      I was asked for examples, and I offered two very highly visible examples, one during the SOTU Response, am OFFICIAL Democratic response, where the allegation would be heard by the entire nation, and the other on a recent extended press tour by a top Democratic leader at various media outlets. The two examples were months apart, proving that the Democratic Party has accepted this theory as fact, even though they never did anything to verify this theory.

      Now that I’ve given multiple examples, you want to claim they don’t count. Why don’t they count? Because they are such a tiny percentage? Do you require that I name literally every single person who has repeated that idea?

      Despite me answering the challenge of sources, not one person has offered up a single example of a verifiable voter who claims to have voted a straight Democratic ticket, except for Trump at the top.

      I was asked for examples, and I found two highly visible ones. Now give me the examples I have asked for.

        Saying “the Democrats” did this or that either means federal elected officials or the registered voters of the party. In your examples, you’ve got two strong cases for the former. I disagree that all federally elected Democratic officials support this. I disagree that most do, but I don’t have any proof for either.

        not one person has offered up a single example of a verifiable voter who claims to have voted a straight Democratic ticket, except for Trump at the top.

        I agree with that. Because statistics is the devil’s flatulence there might be one, but no one has even claimed such an example.
