This is all about one thing: The Supreme Rulers of the Land...the SCOTUS.

Senator Yertle (RINO-KY) had better get on board with extending the Nuclear Option to SCOTUS nominees. It’s the only hope of this country surviving beyond mid-century. Gotta replace as many radical Leftists on the court with confirmed Constitutionalists/orginalists/conservatives as possible during the DJT administration.

Otherwise, kiss it goodbye.

from the piece:

While a liberal group responsible for fomenting the Electoral College rebellion claims to have at least 20 of the 37 GOP defectors needed to pull an upset and send the election to the House, The Hill reports that, among Republicans on the ground, though, there is no chatter or speculation surrounding that possibility. The liberal opposition has generated a cottage industry of online speculation that an Electoral College revolt is a real possibility. But state party leaders familiar with the thinking of their electors dismiss the speculation as fantasy.

IOW: cottage industry of on line speculation = FAKE NEWS

One of the core beliefs in progressivism is the absurd “Language creates reality.”

They think it might change just by talking it up.

The EC is NOT a deliberative body.

Their responsibility is to register the votes of their citizens, not to sit around thinking about what those citizens REALLY meant.

American got enough of that "voter intent" chit during the Manbearpig show in 2K.

One of the warning signs of progressive “thinkers” is they actually *do* think one can invert cause and effect.

“There is a better chance of Hillary Clinton telling the truth about something than any of our 29 electoral votes going for anyone other than Donald Trump.”


Ha!

When will we know the vote count? Immediately after they vote or do we have to wait for the House to formally count?

“The Hill reached state party chairmen or officials for 10 of the 30 states Trump won in November, accounting for 170 of the 270 electoral votes he needs to win.”......

All good news,......but, what about the other 20 States?

The MASSIVELY CORRUPT and THOROUGHLY POLITICIZED OBAMA CIA’s soft coup attempt to discredit P-E Trump fails utterly. When Trump gets sworn in, one of his first acts should be to hunt down and PROSECUTE the SUBVERSIVE SOBs who planted the Russian BS disinformation to the Compost and the Slimes. Then empty the Langley Building, padlock and FUMIGATE the joint, then call it a day.

Under Utah law, however, Trump must receive all the state’s Electoral College votes as the winner of the Nov. 8 presidential election here. Electors who fail to comply are replaced but do not face any penalties. A majority of states bind electors to vote with their party.

Here's the link to the Hill article upon which this article is based:

GOP: Electoral College voters will back Trump>

This kind of reporting ticks me off. Why restate what The Hill has already stated?

Yes “20” was a completely invented number in a fake story. If they say anywhere close to 37, no one else will turn. If they say less than 20, it looks like a blip.

Possible, but also very likely it was a completely invented MSM fiction. We shall see.
