As Twitchy readers know, Chris Hayes made a total tool of himself babbling about the electoral college and explaining how something that isn’t in the Constitution isn’t Constitutional. WHOA, no way!

Talk about a super genius.

Welp, it would appear Chris thought Conservatives mocking and correcting him proved they were triggered … he even wrote a little thread bragging about it.

It is *deeply* revealing that the entire conservative movement gets #triggered if you say the simple truth about the electoral college. — Chris Hayes (@chrislhayes) September 1, 2019

It is DEEPLY revealing how yahoos like Hayes never once complained about the electoral college until his precious Democrats got their butts handed to them by Trump in 2016.

These days, conservatism is a movement deeply paranoid and pessimistic about its own appeal, increasingly retreating behind counter-majoritarian institutions: the senate, the courts, the electoral college. — Chris Hayes (@chrislhayes) September 1, 2019

Wha?

Conservatives are paranoid? The senate, courts, and EC are ‘counter-majoritarian institutions’ …

And this guy wonders why we all make fun of him.

There was a time when conservatives were confident to the point of delusion that the majority of Americans agreed w them. Increasingly they realize that’s not true. They’re 1 for 7 in the last 7 presidential elections on that score and they know it. — Chris Hayes (@chrislhayes) September 1, 2019

A-holes like Chris were confident to the point of delusion about Hillary Clinton but we digress.

And so they are increasingly focused, as a matter of tactical and tribal fidelity, on ways to uphold minority rule. It’s a sad place for a movement to be. — Chris Hayes (@chrislhayes) September 1, 2019

How dare the Republic seek to protect the minority.

Wow, and we thought Brian Stelter was an annoying toolbag.

Guess how this went over.

You said something idiotic, for which you were rightly mocked – Not sure that equals #Triggered conservatives — Pounces O'Houlihan (@Earnest_T_Base) September 1, 2019

If we were #triggered, it was because your explanation of the Electoral College was embarrassingly obtuse. — Tall Man Short Hair (@TallManShort) September 1, 2019

Ever notice how wrong you are? — Lisa B. (@politeracy) September 1, 2019

You're still on this? There's a time when you have to cut your losses and just admit that you were drunk when you said it the first time. Because you are looking like a idjit right now. — Mortis (@WitchyDruss) September 1, 2019

How would you know? You would have to say some simple truth about the Electoral College first. — Jean Paul Zodeaux (@JeanPaulZodeaux) September 1, 2019

It's mathematical demonstrable that districted voting (like the Electoral College) provides more individual voting power to everyone than a popular vote would. — Aaron Lockhart (@arabbitorduck) September 1, 2019

You’re just a dumb person. — ???? (@philllosoraptor) September 1, 2019

You’re a crybaby whining that the rules have to be changed so your side can always win. Nothing more. — Will Collier (@willcollier) September 1, 2019

Chris, maybe you should sit this one out? — Brian Jackson (@brianjacksonXP) September 1, 2019

Too late for that.
