Deval Patrick: I Don’t Think There Was Any Democrat Calling the Election Itself Illegitimate When Trump Won

GARRETT Governor in our ░░░░░░░░ group that our audience ░░░░░░░░ see in a few ░░░░░░░░ of Trump supporters one ░░░░░░░░ out that Democrats raised ░░░░░░░░ in 2000 and they ░░░░░░░░ t let them go ░░░░░░░░ raised objections in 2004 ░░░░░░░░ wouldn t let them ░░░░░░░░ And in 2016 raised ░░░░░░░░ and wouldn t let ░░░░░░░░ go And they consider ░░░░░░░░ criticism of Republican objections ░░░░░░░░ what they saw in ░░░░░░░░ hypocritical Respond to that ░░░░░░░░ Well I think it ░░░░░░░░ important for us to ░░░░░░░░ that first of all ░░░░░░░░ to and really try ░░░░░░░░ process that I think ░░░░░░░░ experienced that differently I ░░░░░░░░ when Donald Trump if ░░░░░░░░ you mean is objections ░░░░░░░░ Donald Trump winning the ░░░░░░░░ I don t think ░░░░░░░░ was any Democrat calling ░░░░░░░░ election itself illegitimate because ░░░░░░░░ outcome was surprising or ░░░░░░░░ to Democrats I think ░░░░░░░░ is important though to ░░░░░░░░ that there is frustration ░░░░░░░░ runs pretty deep throughout ░░░░░░░░ political spectrum about democracy ░░░░░░░░ a path to a ░░░░░░░░ future And that is ░░░░░░░░ I think we ve ░░░░░░░░ treating it in this ░░░░░░░░ these kind of careless ░░░░░░░░ for a long long ░░░░░░░░ It s a whole ░░░░░░░░ order of magnitude and ░░░░░░░░ is serious enough but ░░░░░░░░ whole order of magnitude ░░░░░░░░ say that democracy is ░░░░░░░░ unless the outcome is ░░░░░░░░ one you want or ░░░░░░░░ one you voted for ░░░░░░░░ don t think that ░░░░░░░░ what Democrats were objecting ░░░░░░░░ in the policy choices ░░░░░░░░ Donald Trump and those ░░░░░░░░ have supported him That ░░░░░░░░ a very very different ░░░░░░░░
