PING!
Populist or populous? This gent needs an editor.
The witch won the popular vote? Who knew? Last I checked, she won 48% (less if you figure in the illegal, dead, multiple, mickey, daffy, popeye, etc. votes) and the rest of the ticket won 52%.
52+48= 100 correct?

Catherine the Great was Czar at the time of the revolution. She was considered ahead of her time. :)
And then, they unloaded Alaska on us.
> It was also well known that Russian agents infiltrated the Philadelphia convention and helped to design the electoral college so that Trump could win more than 200 years later.
Proof that Putin acquired a time machine in 1984 from Doc Brown.
Go do a survey of Americans of any age, any educational level, and ask the question: “Is the United States a democracy?”.
There’s the problem.
Low-information ordinary citizens evidently do not understand that the federal spending programs that they have foolishly traded their votes for and become dependent on are actually based on state powers and state revenues that the corrupt fed have stolen from the states by means of unconstitutional federal taxes.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Patriots need to work with Trump to either politically “force” the feds to surrender powers that the feds have stolen from the states back to the states, or amend the Constitution to expressly give the feds the specific powers to tax and spend for such programs.
"The States should be left to do whatever acts they can do as well as the General Government." --Thomas Jefferson to John Harvie, 1790.
The 12th Amendment, not the 20th, governs Presidential elections. Section 3 of the 20th Amendment deals with if there are problems between the time when the Electoral College votes and Inauguration Day, but does not effect the Electoral College.
Moonbats in Los Angeles and New York, and millions of illegal aliens in those cities, would determine the presidential election. No thanks.

How can they 'remember' what they haven't been taught?
The World Series requires that a team win four games out of seven no matter the scores of the individual games. Consider the 1960 World Series. The Pittsburgh Pirates went up against the New York Yankees. The series was won by Pittsburgh with a walk-off home run by Bill Mazeroski in the ninth inning of the seventh game even though the Yankees scored more total runs.
The Yankees won three games with the following scores: 16–3, 10–0, and 12–0. The Pirates won four games with these scores: 6–4, 3–2, 5–2, and 10–9. In addition, the Yankees “outhit them 91–60, outbatted them .338 to .256, hit 10 home runs to Pittsburgh’s four (three of which came in Game 7), got two complete-game shutouts from Whitey Ford — and lost.” (Wikipedia)
The series total was 55 runs for the Yankees and 27 runs for the Pirates. In the final analysis, it didn’t matter that the Yankees scored more total runs. Danny Murtaugh, the Pirate’s manager, got it right when he said: “I looked in the rule book and it said the Series will be decided on games won, not on runs scored.”
In the morning papers before the final game “quoted Yankees stars Mantle and Roger Maris as saying the Yankees were still the better team, even if the Pirates somehow managed to win Game 7.” (ESPN) Sound familiar? even if they lost, they still won.
