Sure, it's been more than 340 days since Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton, but there's still one very narrow, highly unlikely and entirely unprecedented way that Clinton could become president.
And it has some Democratic die-hards dreaming again.
Harvard University professor Lawrence Lessig offered a Clinton path to the presidency on Medium, putting forward a series of "if/then" scenarios that lead to House Speaker Paul Ryan handing the White House keys to Clinton.
Here's how constitutional law expert Lessig lays it out:
(Excerpt) Read more at newsweek.com ...
“What would be the fun of being President if you were the only person alive in the country? Hillary needs thousands of underlings to cater to her every wish.”
That is the beauty of this scenario. She is left behind by herself. There will be no one left to crush. No one to blame. No one to order around and cater to her whims. She will be left by herself to await her reward.
She may not be the best they have, but...ITS STILL HER TURN
messiah Barack, now messiah Hillary LOL
lots of folks really need more of Jesus pursuing them mightily!
All of these schemes should be titled,” how to overthrow the duly elected government of the United States and still preserve the thinnest veneer of legality.” I have a dream too, in case they make their dream true: to see every traitor swinging from a lamppost.
Wait.
Are they still on this muh Russia BS?
I suspect that these libs are in the bargaining stage of grief by now. Some of them at least.
Others, like the one I heard last night who referred to the US as a dystopia (from her midwestern house where she’s able to live off of her husband’s job and spend her life working as a volunteer at an animal shelter when she’s not spouting nonsense) are probably in the stage of despair.
And long may it last.
If number 1: If Trump is definitively found to have colluded directly with Russia, he would be forced to resign or be impeached.
If number 2: If Trump is removed, Vice President Mike Pence would become president.
If number 3: If Pence becomes president, he should resign too, given that he benefited from the same help from Mother Russia.
If number 4: If Pence resigns before appointing a vice president, Ryan would become president.
If number 5: If Ryan becomes president, he should do the right thing and choose Clinton for vice president. Then he should resign.
I've been told an acting President, as Ryan would be until the Supreme Court handed the job to Tillerson after ruling that even if the US House Speaker is an "officer" of the United States, a former Speaker (he'd have to resign to become acting President) certainly isn't, cannot nominate a VP.
Is Lessig a Professor of Growing Magic Mushrooms?
Where’s the part where the Bodies of dead Politicians start piling up in D.C.?
This nit wit broad must have been freebasing stupid to come up with this fever swamp dream. Her editors must be equally retarded.
“This Newsweak article is just another Russian plot ordered by Putin to make Democrats look stupid.”
No. Russia has limited human and financial resources, and they are known to spend hard money carefully. This is a task that Democrats are very capable of accomplishing with no additional assistance.
“Julia sounds like someone who has been hitting the happy smoke pretty hard.”
They do say that 21st century pot is far stronger tha what was available 50 years ago.
Impeachment is only an indictment. Removal requires a 2/3rds majority (67 votes)in the Senate to Convict and Remove from office.
Very, very high threshold!
Imma guess he freebases his own dried turds.
Julia Glum can, and should, be institutionalized for psychosis.
Newsweek has gone insane. For the last couple of issues they have had less and less to do with reality.
the leftist media has been promoting her like she’s gonna run again in 2020. they’ve allowed her to completely suck the oxygen out of the rest of the leftosphere. they publish every word she utters and pretty much ignore every other utterance by every other Democrat. with the leftist media, it’s been nothing but hillary, hillary, hillary.
and it’s not a bad thing. hillary is the worst candidate the Dems have every run in their entire history and nothing about her can be changed for the better. The Dems would be completely insane to run her again though, and like Trump recently tweeted, he too is hoping she’ll run again.
So, yeah: Hillary 2020!
What do you have against The Onion? I find it has by far less fake news than Newsweak does.
Keep hoping and dreaming for 3+ years, comforting each other with what ifs, and then again for 4 years hehehehehehe!
A New Report Raises Big Questions About Last Year’s DNC Hack
Russiagate Is More Fiction Than Fact
Bombshell Report on the DNC Hack by Forensic Experts Claims It Was an Inside Job, Not the Russians
In a fair election, if you lose you accept the results. When Zero won, we CONSERVATIVES didn't call for killing, protesting the election or have late night talk host make fun of Zero. What us voters did is to unite and fight. We didn't cry. Grow up, jerks!
