Mom always used to say...
IF, ifs and buts were candy and nuts... Every day would be Christmas!
Trump is not going to lose votes in 2020 and I would not be surprised to see him pick up 30 million votes either!

I know, but if you don’t want to listen to people whine for the next 5 years, it’s better to get both. Just don’t want them to try to tarnish him again

We need to LOSE the popular vote and win the electoral college. More entertaining that way.

Then he will be the first president to win two terms while losing the popular vote each time. Deal with it.

The truth is, the democrats have worked on extreme voter supression in blue states, mostly by changing rules and gerrymandering in a way that makes it extremely unlikely that a republican would win anything, so there is no point in voting.

Note that in the last senate election, the way the democrats ran that, there was no republican on the ballot. So a lot of republicans stayed home, which hurt house candidates.

And the whole ability to harvest absentee votes has made it difficult for the honest republican candidates, against a bunch of democrats who believe anything goes so long as they win.

Democrats can make all of the fake ballots they want in LA and NYC, they still lose.

And not every vote is counted when it won’t affect the outcome of the election (especially provisional ballots).

‘And even less if California is successful in keeping him off of the ballot.’

it makes no difference whatsoever in states currently totalling 232 EV’s what his vote totals are...ditto with the dem candidate in states totalling 204 EV’s...

The team with the most runs in a season isn’t crowned the world champions, either.

‘Clintonistas undermining democracy again by refusing to accept the outcome of elections.’

the dems have a habit of doing this; think election of 1860...

It is time to separate. They get the big cities, the tech hubs, the gay bars, and most of the Starbucks. We get everywhere that produces goods, grows food, produces energy, etc. We get all the airports; they'll have the major ports … so there's a bargain to be made there.

We won't take their garbage. Or their prisons. We will build a wall.

We won't need much in the way of taxes because they'll have most of the welfare class, and almost all of it once we impose work requirements. We can charge as much as we want for food, water and whatever minimal energy they will need after they implement their Green New Deal and make the cities energy independent through unicorn farts. I like our chances.

I see the liberal press has decided on its strategy for dealing with Trump’s inevitable re-election.

Attempt to stymie him by declaring that “he doesn’t have a mandate.”

Of course, that conveniently ignores the fact that an electoral vote victory IS a mandate.

This is why EVERYBODY on our side needs to vote. Even in states like California.

Just a thought. What would be the ramifications if PG&E killed power on election day next year?

‘And Trump supporters would be perfectly justified in taking up arms and violently suppression such a flagrant illegal attempt to over turn the duly elected government of the US by force.’

a sizable contingent on this forum does not believe in that same justification for the supporters of the Union in 1860...

The validity of these 5 million votes is open to question.

RIOTS are what the DimoCommunist want!!! The more the merrier AND with plenty of police shooting that kill thousands of peaceful minorities quietly protesting AND NOT CAUSING any issues, problems, etc. They were protesting Trump, Christians, conservatives, Patriots, the military, first-responders, law enforcement, white men, white women living or married to white men. The dead must be in BIG numbers for their riots to be favorable for the WHOLE WORLD to demand that Trump be tossed out by the peaceful DimoCommunist candidate who won by popular vote. What is this stupid Electoral College anyway? Who ever heard of such a silly thing. Total numbers are what counts.

Because you won’t live under that which you took an oath to?

Shameful.
