Where to even start with this nonsense. First Democrats are still in denial about 2016 claiming that Russia changed votes and stole the election for Trump and they also obstructed Trump from day one.
I don't recall many serious politicians claiming Russia actually changed votes.  If I am wrong please correct me.  Let us not forget the Mueller probe was initiated by Republicans and Trump appointees and Mueller himself has said Trump was note exonerated.

Nothing about Biden's campaign was unifying in any way.
Aside from taking policy positions that you oppose, what particular things did he do to offend you?

I can name many things his opponent did that are beyond the pale including childish insults, tweeting out a video saying white power, and the "only good Democrat is a dead Democrat" debacle.  Those don't strike me as particularly unifying statements.
 
Democrats don't believe in democracy or the rule of law.
When it suits them they do not.  Both parties do this.

DC?  This is hardly some newfangled idea.  It has been supported by Republicans in the past.  https://statehood.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/statehood/page_content/attachments/Historical-Overview-of-Party-Platforms-and-Statehood.pdf

Puerto Rico? Statehood is in the Republican platform.

and pack the supreme court because they can't win elections that have been played by the same rules for hundreds of years.
Not since 1860 has a nominee in an election year been rejected and in that case the Senate voted to not proceed. https://fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/IN11514.pdf

Democrats have also weaponized the courts for years by appointing activist judges who ignore the constitution.
Which particular judges are you referring to?

Democrats aren't willing to compromise on important issues they blocked passing stimulus in the senate.
How are they blocking this when they are the minority?

Regarding the virus it's not ironic but it's dumb to compare something like 9/11 which was a one day event to an illness that's killed less than 1% of the population and for most people has a 99% survival rate.
Yes, but that is still a large number of people.

Also Democrats have politicized the virus from day one suggesting that halting travel with China would be xenophobic and then focusing on states like Florida and Texas and ignoring how bad New York, New Jersey and California were doing.
This was a mistake by the Democrats and they should have been more supportive on this and backed Trump against China more.
Multiple polls showed that large numbers of Democrats thought Russia changed votes and stole the election for Trump. Clinton still claims that the election was stolen from her. Also the Muller report found:
The special counsel found that Russia did interfere with the election, but “did not find that the Trump campaign, or anyone associated with it, conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in these efforts, despite multiple efforts from Russian-affiliated individuals to assist the Trump campaign.”

Biden called a juvenille who shot a man who was attacking him a white supremacist and made other statements that condemned Trump supporters as white supremacists while ignoring the violent BLM riots that happened this summer.

Puerto Rico might be acceptable but DC certainly isn't. It's in the constitution that it is supposed to be a federal district. Party platforms are pretty meaningless nobody reads them.

Maybe the judges in PA that made up the law regarding mail in ballots also the Roe v Wade decision was obviously liberal activism

Needed 60 votes: https://www.politico.com/news/2020/10/21/senate-democrats-republicans-covid-stimulus-430838

If the party with the presidency also has the senate they get to appoint the judges they want that is how it works.

To sum it up yes both parties obstruct and all that, but the idea that democrats are victims in some way is just ridiculous.
Pssst! Google the number of individuals indicted and convicted out of the Mueller investigation, including Trump stop a DHS. Learn to! Google the number of individuals indicted and convicted out of the Mueller investigation, including Trump top aides and campaign advisers.

It takes extra work to be a know nothing. Why don't you try to learn things instead?
