Oh yes; I remember the Brooks Brothers riot.
Begging the question — was Al Gore a particularly popular vice president?

Trumps approval rating when he was elected the second time was 47%. Al Gore’s approval rating when he lost the 2000 election was 62%.
Should’ve called it the Brook Brothers coup. Because in retrospect, that’s what it was.
