This takes incredible courage for a man who has worked so hard
all of his life to persoally accumulate wealth and a business empire.

Its a giant leap for the Donald.

It shows courage, trust and patriotism.

This is a very great man.

We are very lucky to have him.

He has impeccable timing, it is after the Electoral College vote, which makes legal sense.

States must make final decisions in any controversies over the appointment of their electors at least six days before the meeting of the Electors. This is so their electoral votes will be presumed valid when presented to Congress.

Decisions by states' courts are conclusive, if decided under laws enacted before Election Day.

December 19, 2016

The Electors meet in their state and vote for President and Vice President on separate ballots. The electors record their votes on six "Certificates of Vote," which are paired with the six remaining Certificates of Ascertainment.

The electors sign, seal, and certify six sets of electoral votes. A set of electoral votes consists of one Certificate of Ascertainment and one Certificate of Vote. These are distributed immediately as follows:

I do agree that this takes some courage, is a sacrifice, and so on. The sad thing is, it won;t deter the press in the least. They will insist that he is still conflicted. They do not apply this standard to other politicians, many of whom own commerical real estate.

It will be after the states finish the recount drama. But I agree with you on all the other points. This man truly loves his country.

As I told my wife, I am totally convinced that God has raised up this guy for this very moment in history. I know he isn’t perfect, but the timing of all this and the symmetry of Trump in relation to the needs of the country are beyond coincidental.

This may be wild hyperbole, but it makes me think of George Washington, who everyone wanted and expected to make himself king after the first election. Yet he stepped down at the end of his term, knowing how critical to the future of the nation that example had to be. Walked right away from all that possible wealth and power.

I think even King George gave him props for that move, IIRC.

Key dates for Electoral College business are here.

Brief excerpt:

Of course, Jill Stein and her minions are doing everything they can to force the vote recount(s) to run past Dec 19.
