Don’t bet on that. Civics has not been taught in school for many years. Most people younger than 50-60 do not begin to understand how the EC works; so have no idea what the difference is between popular vote and EC. Popular vote makes sense to them; not complicated, sounds “fair” and many people are now brainwashed for things to be fair. Voting for Dummies.
The big selling point is the belief that Hillary would now be president if we had popular vote. That sounds fantastic to all the Trump haters.
No ... she’s not dumb ... she is just hoping the people who listen to her rhetoric are dumb ... you see. She knows what she’s doing.
If you can’t win with the rules the way they are, change them so that you will win.
How odd that they never mention this obvious fact. Of course, the main benefit for the dems would be that they don't have to engineer vote corruption in 50 different states, they can just concentrate their efforts in the cities they own: Detroit, Chicago, Philadelphia, etc.
I’m surprised a block of congress critters from the congressional negro caucus and similar groups haven’t gone after Trump for bribing Electoral College admissions officials to get his kids admitted.
President DeSantis has a nice ring to it for 2024.
1. Most people do not know what it means or
2. They approve of the consequences.
BTW, just the appearance of that woman makes my skin crawl.
Democrats always want to default to mob rule.
“Far too many people today (especially younger ones) don’t understand...”...
...the structure of the United States. It’s a union of States the originators of which got together to form the United States and a General Government with representatives for the people and representatives for the States. It was not formed by people who established a General Government and then established the States as subordinate entities.
Exactly.
Changing our government from a republic to a democracy must not happen. The democracy will inevitably turn into a dictatorship. The ballot box, already corrupt, will disappear. Free speech, already threatened, will be silenced.
We cannot even depend on the judiciary, compromised and militant. Keep your powder dry.
Elizabeth Warren wants to take away millions of votes
I’m still wondering why she went to Jackson Mississippi for this speech. What is her strategy?im betting it wasn’t for fundraising.
What’s the point of bringing in all those illegals if they stay in California ?
How about your office is just eliminated instead, Pocahontas?
Sounds like it’s time for a tax revolt. If they do this every rural county in the country no longer has an obligation to pay any federal taxes because they will no longer be equally represented.
Cause and effect... Taking away our power of the vote is going to cost them dearly. This needs to be explained to them, they can’t have both. You can’t exclude the masses from the process and still tax them without that representation.
Federal Tax exempt counties. Let those few high population counties and districts pay all the taxes then.
When the Democrats are losing, they change the rules. Electoral College, Supreme Court packing, ballot harvesting, illegal immigrant voting, redistricting, free college, guaranteed income, all Democrat schemes to give themselves a pathway to permanent power.
You don’t need to know the specifics, you only need to know that if the Democrats are for it, you can be sure that it’s not good for the Country, not good for our Republic form of government, and bad for your family.
All Democrats do.
