Who cares about the frickin’ Popular Vote, it’s as irrelevant as who got the most hits in a baseball game.

Trump setup his campaign to win according to the rules. If it came down to the popular vote, he would have run a much different campaign, and probably still would have won the popular vote, if that was the criteria for victory.

I care about these false, irrelevant claims.

Here’s why, and you need to pay attention.

You may laugh when Maxine Waters calls for impeachment.

But you damned well better take her and the rest of the leftists seriously with this vitriolic hatred they have of Trump.

What the left is doing now is what they always do: they are preparing the battlefield today for a distant battle.

This lie (and it is a lie because we all know that illegals voted en masse for Hillary “I Enabled a Rapist” Clinton) is designed to establish as “accepted” that Trump is not the legitimate president. This is why they keep hammering on the “the Russians rigged the election for Trump” lie.

Both of these in addition to all the other attacks (”Trump is mentally unstable, maybe we should invoke the 25th” “Trump is leading us to WWIII”) are all designed to condition the mind of Americans with the acceptance that Trump is a failure, is extreme and is not even the legitimate president.

That way, when they actually call up articles of impeachment and then pressure Trump to resign everyone who has accepted the false premise will not fight to defend him because we have already been conditioned that he is evil and illegitimate.

Bank on it.

We need to fight each and every one of these leftist attacks.

Reject the premise. We have no idea what the legitimate popular vote was because so many people voted illegally for Democrats.

Trump is not extreme (he’s enforcing laws that have been ignored for 8 years).

He is not unstable (he is committed to fulfilling his campaign promises and the majority of Americans support him).

His administration is not in chaos (every administration has its issues).

He has already been very successful in terms of jobs and improving the sense of optimism.
