Clinton won't rule out questioning legitimacy of election
The Hill ^ | 09/18/17 | Jordan Fabian

Posted on 09/18/2017 11:40:24 AM PDT by rdl6989

Hillary Clinton said she wouldn’t rule out challenging the legitimacy of the 2016 presidential election if Russian interference turned out to be deeper than previously thought.

“No, I wouldn't rule it out,” she said in an interview with NPR published Monday.

The defeated Democratic nominee stressed, however, that she does not believe there is a means to officially challenge the election’s outcome.

How about just support a total look at the votes cast in California and elsewhere?

Each day, it’s like hearing from you’re weird Aunt from Nebraska.

No. The AG is not independent of the President. He fired the head of the FBI; he can fire the AG, and he can certainly tell the AG what to concentrate on.

I question that she did win the popular vote without illegal immigrants voting, and Dem cities cheating.
Every City, COUNTY, or STATE, that proclaims themselves a sanctuary is major suspect.

Trump doesn’t have the authority to issue orders to the AG. He already made his wishes clear [he asked why Hillary wasn’t being investigated] and Sessions gave him the middle finger. The Swamp has Jeff’s back, which makes him cocky.

Thank you for the clarification. Actually that makes me feel better about it - Trump isn’t going back on his words, he’s just being stonewalled.

I will NOT forget that he came close to firing Sessions a couple of months back and that the ENTIRE Senate blocked him from an interim appointment.

From the script of allowed questions turned over to NPR producers as a condition of her doing their show. HRC is so disgusting.

When she had all the cancer kids removed from a children's cancer hospital because they looked sickly and replaced them with healthy children for the photo shoot, that forever shaped my impression of the heartless amoral beast she is.

Yes, I think you're right. What a relief.

Good thing we didn’t get Hillary, she would have given the dreamers amnesty.

Why do dreamers need amnesty? Think carefully about your answer to the question. It is vitally important you NOT confuse the DACA people with “amnesty” because it devalues the term for the TRUE illegals who came here VIOLATING the rules.

Confused? Good. Here's more confusion: The DACA “kids” are not “illegals.” They did NOT come here illegally.

FACT: They came here on the basis of a US government program via presidential executive order. Barring a court striking it down (didn’t happen) or congress passing a law (didn’t happen), Obama’s executive order has the status of a temporary law. Trump has now RESCINDED that law, but that doesn’t change the fact that anyone who came here UNDER that law is legal. People are not “illegal” for playing by the rules they were given. Once the law changes (under Trump), then they can be sent back. But don’t mix up rules changes with legality. Therefore, if they weren’t here “illegally” they aren’t getting “amnesty” which is forgiveness for breaking a law.

"Now wait a minute," you object, "Obama was an illegitimate President! What he did was illegitimate! Unconstitutional!"

Yes, but...He did it under the authority of the office of the President, and NOBODY stopped him. Besides, if what he did was illegitimate, then why did Trump have to bother to RESCIND that law? Hmmm?

Good. Confusion leads to better understanding and clearer thinking of important terminology.

...don't confuse DACA with amnesty...

Yes actually trump does have express authority to order the justice dept to investigate whatever he thinks needs investigating. Trump is the boss of the justice dept.

“...she would have given the entire store away.”

The evil bitch has NEVER given anything away in her life. But she would SELL the entire store away.

“years ago, she try to have the Electoral College eliminated.”

Interesting, too, since the E.C. worked out well for her husband. He didn’t win the popular vote, either. Considering the votes for Bush and Perot, Bubba only got about 43-44%.

As will the Cincinnati Reds, who may challenge the "OUT" call issued when Baltimore catcher Elrod Hendricks "tagged" baserunner Bernie Carbo with an empty glove during Game 1 of the 1970 World Series.

Actually, DACA dreamers did arrive illegally - but as minors, many of which were brought across the border by their illegal parents.

CA stands for “Childhood Arrivals” - meaning illegal, but underage.

Your post is in error, FRiend.

If Trump would get Sessions TO DO HIS ACTUAL JOB the hidebeast would be too busy talking to lawyers to do anything else.
