Point out how Obama is still the President with three terms. Like I said, nothing he is doing is illegal. You just need to get over it.

Currently the Democratic Party is at a disadvantage in the House of Representatives, in part, because of gerrymandering.
The group, according to Politico, cited the statistic that Republicans won 49 percent of the vote in the 2016 elections for the House of Representatives, but earned 55 percent of the seats.
The new National Democratic Redistricting Committee will approach the issue in a number of ways.
First, they'll look to win more state elections for Democrats, as most states' lawmakers are responsible for redistricting plans after the census is taken each decade.
In states where ballot initiative are allowed, the group will push for new laws that take redistricting responsibilities away from partisan lawmakers and put them into nonpartisan commissions, which would in turn draw new Congressional districts.

'This is really a battle for our democracy,' Holder told reporters on Tuesday wrote Politico. 'This notion that people are denied their ability to cast a meaningful vote ... is inconsistent with who we say we are, inconsistent with what we say our democracy is about.'

In his State of the Union speech, President Obama called on lawmakers and the public to take a number of steps "to change the system to reflect our better selves" for "a better politics." The top item on that list was to end partisan gerrymandering: "we have to end the practice of drawing our congressional districts so that politicians can pick their voters, and not the other way around," Obama said.

To plan and plot the downfall of the President is to plan and plot the downfall of America and it's people. That's what it is.
Imagine the Dems weren't a political party but were instead just some 'people', would these current activities be acceptable, or even legal? I think not. They would be considered an enemy, rounded up and bounced all the way to jail.
These people are engaging in activities that are intended to undermine and destroy your elected President, they're doing it in your own country and under your very noses. Take away the 'politician' label and look again at what they're doing. Open your eyes and see it for what it is.
Oh, you mean sort of like the "Stop Obama Express"? That went on for 8 years. I cant seem to recall any arrests in that matter. But I guess that doesn't count since you disliked Obama.
What will happen if they're successful in their plot? No more democracy? What's the plan? Another election? What if Trump wins again? More protests? More violence? A coup? What?
Accept the democratic vote and let the new President get on with his job. If he really is as incompetent as the Dems would have you believe he'll bring himself down all on his own without their assistance, and no-one will vote for him ever again. That's how democracy works. Those who don't like or want it should go live in China.

Didn't say he was still President... I wrote he is trying to control the government through this grass-root of his, his own shadow government.

Apparently one of the ways Obama and Holder want to "win" is by taking control of "Gerrymandering". (Actually had to look that up)
