The left is predictably having a meltdown and is calling the counting process, which took place under President Donald Trump, "illegitimate."

TFG was an illegitimate POTUS. He asked for and received help from an enemy of the United States, to obtain the office & abused it while he held it.

Justices Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Barrett are illegitimate.

Our census count is illegitimate.

Governors Kemp and DeSantis are

Folks tried to tell y’all to fill out the Census. We warned you that not doing so could cost your state financial resources and power. And this shift is locked in for TEN YEARS. Civics, people. Civics... https://t.co/nzmrTKQbXQ

This is my favorite census take.

Imagine arguing that Trump is responsible for the New York losing a Congressional seat, not the terrible COVID policies, defund the police nonsense, or outrageous taxes. https://t.co/d4vLV9ijzM

To be fair the census was totally botched and corrupted by the previous administration, plus #COVID19 could play a huge role in response rates. This number is a call for census re-evaluation more than a cautionary tale about filling out forms https://t.co/gOvB3C3JNh

Last Congress I co-led the Census Deadline Extension Act to extend the count because we *knew* Latinos, Native Americans, and Arizonans in rural & hard-to-reach areas weren’t being counted. This undercount is an intentional part of Trump’s legacy. https://t.co/SJt1MLauVz

New York continues to be haunted by the ghost of Donald Trump, whose sabotage of the census count cost our state a Congressional seat. https://t.co/x2TzpFmMbY
