I am not a "supporter" of Trump. But, Trump did not lose the popular vote. Up to 4 million, maybe more, of Her Majesty's votes are fake and/or illegal. Illegal aliens, the dead, repeat voters, felons, impostors, and so on.

What these Bolshevist shitheads also need to understand is that the Republican-controlled Congress can simply dismiss any state's electoral votes. Get Ohio's to vote for Kasich? Dismiss them, along with California's.

Officially, none of the popular votes matter. I'm only bringing it up for propaganda reasons: if an alleged "win" in the popular vote "matters," then one simply counters with the fact millions of fake/illegal ballots were cast...for Clinton.

This will lead to nothing like all the other schemes they devised to stop Trump.

Just more entertainment.

Also LOL at them scheming to put in 1 for 51. This is great.

Not only that, but in NY and CA they stop counting votes once the uncounted votes are less than the deficit. There are 4 million absentee and provisional ballots uncounted in California. Absentee voting tends to fall 2/1 in favor of Republicans.

That
Was a very informative piece.
I never knew about december 19th
Nor January 6th.
And why the inauguaration takes place January 20th

The Founders put together a system of checks and balances second to none.
I am left slackjawed just how wise these men were
I truly am.

I think it is a good system, If we went with popular vote, New York, Chicago, San Francisco and LA with input from a few other big cities would always determine who is president. You would lose the fact that we are a strong confederation of fifty [nation] states.

It is surprising the Electoral College has lasted this long, since state appointment of Senators was overridden so long ago...a system intended to do similar as the Electoral College...prevent "democracy" (blind, irrational mobocracy).

Even if congress tried to pass an ammendment getting rid of the electoral college, the states could call a constitutional convention and if three quarters of the states agreed to keep it it would stay. Seeing as the number of states that would be hurt by getting rid of the electoral college greatly outnumbers the states that it would help, its hard to see it changing.

Same with repealing the Second Amendment. :)

If voting made a difference, it would be illegal.
