And so after everything—the relentless lies, the twisted misogyny, the mocking of a disabled man, the racism open enough to have won the enthusiasm of white supremacists, the invitation to a foreign adversary to find and leak information damaging to his opponent, and all the rest of it—we’re hitting the point of no return. The Electoral College meets Monday, and unless he shoots someone on Fifth Avenue in the meantime, it’s done. The electors are going to certify him as the next president. As they do so, the electors will not be doing their job. Lots of people by now have written pieces, like this very good one by Peter Beinart, explaining that the Electoral College was created precisely to prevent a demagogue from taking office. This was the design even if such a move went against the will of the people. But in this case it wouldn’t even be doing that, as Hillary Clinton won nearly 3 million more votes than Trump. They’ll be joining a long list of people who didn’t do their jobs this past year. The list starts with the Republican Party and Reince Priebus. As Trump went from one outrage to the next in 2015, the Republican Party should have and could have found a way to stop him and unify behind one of the other candidates, all of whom, even Ted Cruz, fell within the scope of normal and weren’t utter demagogues who made their contempt for the Constitution plain. Priebus is now rewarded with a big important job, but for a president who’s already not very popular and who will be besieged by scandal from the moment he says “so help me God.” Indeed, a couple more juicy CIA leaks between now and January 20 might persuade a majority of Americans that......

“the racism open enough to have won the enthusiasm of white supremacists”
I must have missed that part.
This Tomasky character has a real flair for the language.
He should be a novelist - or, even better, a Hollywood scribe.
No point trying to refute these morons, their memes mean more to them than facts. That’s why they keep saying ‘hands up, don’t shoot’ long after it was demonstrated that never happened.
Ya, anyone but Trump our fraud could have beat. Too bad Dems. A Power greater than the Dem Party had His say.

You know - the racism that got Trump a larger part of minority voters than Mittens received.
the twisted misogyny - LIE
the mocking of a disabled man - LIE
the racism open enough to have won the enthusiasm of white supremacists - LIE
the invitation to a foreign adversary to find and leak information damaging to his opponent - LIE
Its helpful when they gather together to whine about Trump. Understand, conservatives......Obama, and that ilk.....sought the overthrow of the US govt; their evil scheme entailed installing a govt of THEIR choosing. Michelle whines about being out of hope......what she won't say is there's no hope b/c their overthrow scheme failed miserably.
These elector revolutionaries are a very good example of the reasons that the founders sought to limit and check power. But of course, over the years, those protections have been whittled down by uber-liberals and progressives, loopholes big enough to drive army tanks through.
There's a list to remember.....people who have aided and abetted the overthrow of the US govt: the Clintons, the Obamas, Podesta, Obama, Huma, Cheryl Mills, Holder, Lynch, Comey, Koskinen, Pelosi, Reid, Schumer, both NY and Chicago mayors DeBlasio and Rahm Emanuel, the naysaying electors.....just to name the top end of the list.
==============================================
MUST DO---it is mandatory that we reconfigure the political language and archive the "code words" these evil people use for the overthrow of the US govt. "Diversity" "racism" "inequality" " are some of the left's choice code words----used incessantly to launch the overthrow.
Suck it, Tomasky.
I love that you are feeling pain.

Feel much more.
Wow!
I say to the Democrats, go ahead, follow his advice. Continue to attack, never give in, never surrender.
I have a feeling that Trump will just ignore them (as Obama ignored his critics.) The difference is, Trump’s goals will be for the improvement in the life of Americans.
If Trump is successful the American people will remember which party is better for the nation.
Wearing your reading glasses propped up on your head in your author photo means you’re a Deep Thinker.
Even when you’re rehashing loony revenge theories and talking - STILL - about the popular (read: illegal) vote.
But this inane scribbler could look on the bright side. We did not have the violent revolution that was a possibility had Hillary won. He must be ignorant of the fact that 17,000 TONS of ammo were bought in the 12 months preceding the election.
It isn’t singularly Donald Trump that asswipes like this Tomasky are complaining and appended every epithet a liberal can foist on a ‘nonbeliever’ of liberalism.
What they are really doing is focusing all the nasty words, epithets, lies and accusations on the collective dispersed Americans who don’t live in those highly congested, rat infested, mind disease bins they call NYC, LA and about 20 other places just like them.
They offer nothing to the fabric of America save the threadbare patches of evil liberalism that collects the very dregs of ideological and sociological society. In truth they reflect none of the ideals of real America - the America from which this UNION of dispersed STATES was formed.
Siege them. Surround and isolate them and let them see the Zombie result. Build a wall on the Mexican border and then begin on these festering cities.
I wouldn’t know. I never take my glasses off; if I do, I’m immediately bashing my shins on the furniture.
But it’s my beliefe that rehashing loony revenge theories sells well in Hollywood.
Got news for the little snowflake. Even if Trump does shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue he is getting elected.
He should be confined to a “safe space”..(preferably an insane asylum )and be supervised when using sharp objects (like pens and pencils)
