Watch in slow motion as Democrats, goaded by the media, conspire to re-elect President Trump:
Voters care about the economy and making education and health care affordable. And so Democrats are talking about … abolishing the Electoral College?
Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren started the latest distraction at a CNN town hall on Monday. “Get rid of the Electoral College,” she said, neglecting to mention that this has zero chance of occurring in the foreseeable future.
The media took it from there.
On Tuesday, MSNBC’s Garrett Haake pressed former representative Beto O’Rourke: “Getting rid of the Electoral College: Is that an idea you’re exploring?”
O’Rourke saw “wisdom” in the idea.
On Fox News, Martha MacCallum said “everybody” is talking about “abandoning the Electoral College” and asked former representative John Delaney his view.
“It’s a total waste of time to talk about it,” Delaney replied.
Apparently not. Jimmy Kimmel on ABC on Tuesday night asked California Sen. Kamala Harris if she agreed with Warren. She hedged.
Wednesday morning, Willie Geist of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” put the Electoral College question to South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg. “It’s got to go,” Buttigieg affirmed.
Naturally, Trump seized the opportunity. “The Democrats are getting very ‘strange’,” he tweeted Wednesday. “Actually, you’ve got to win it at the Ballot Box!”

Encouraged by left-wing activists and the media, Democrats are performing litmus tests like lab technicians. supporting proposals that are impossible, extreme or oversimplified. Many of these have merit. The problem is that they have become a battery of binary tests of ideological purity – allowing Trump to caricature Democrats as extremist.

“The Democrats are getting very ‘strange’,” Trump tweeted Wednesday.
Yes, it does seem like a growing list of fringe ideas. They might win with the party insiders, but what about with the rest of America? At some point they are going to be very unrecognizable to most Americans, if not already.
Who wants to be the next Mondale?
It won’t matter. There are so many illegal democrat voters streaming across the border that Texas and Florida will be blue in a few years. IOWs, America will take her last breaths.
Dems dont care, they think they can voter fraud “win” 2020.
You forgot allow 16 year olds to vote
It’s a far different demographic picture today than 1984
Mondale was Reagan compared to this crop.

“Democrats are conspiring to re-elect Trump”
For World War III...but it will blow up in their faces instead.
There is nothing that is on that list that is thought of as a new idea by the left. Everything on that list has been spouted by the left for many decades. ICE was the result of combining other agencies together when HHS was formed and touted as a way to reduce redundancy in government. I remember in the mid-1980’s discussing late-term abortions and pph. Demonrats will never ban PAC contributions unless it is a right wing organization. Moveon.org and others like it are PACs. Boycotting AIPAC has been done before, its not new. The electoral college will not be banned in our lifetime because of the ratification process it requires to remove it from the Constitutional protection. What is new about the Electoral College front is the states stating their EC members would go to the candidate who wins the national popular vote count. This isn’t really technically circumventing the electoral college but it could state that a resident of that state was disenfranchised by that course of action. Free stuff for all is a concept set into motion by the New Deal. Packing the courts has a history behind it and there were at times more SC justices that there is now. All parliamentary procedure bodies go through periods of wanting and not wanting the filibuster as it is not just a USA concept. Impeachment is a retaliatory reaction for the last Prez that was impeached. So-called journalists claimed Clinton’s impeachment was retaliation for Nixon and now there are those who say the desire to impeach Trump is a retaliatory action for Clinton’s impeachment. The left doesn’t want guaranteed jobs for all as it would make people independent, they are really wanting a universal income for all so that the people will rely on the government. When people rely on the government for their basic necessities they tend to vote to the left so they can keep getting paid.
This is and has been the left’s agenda for many many years, there is nothing new in that list.
We just have to look at the midterms to know they have gotten better at cheating.
<><> Reparations to African-Americans...
Get the #### out of here.
I’d go to prison or war before I’d give a dime.

Amen to that!
They can kiss my(our) rosy white azz(es). And we’ll draw a big crowd so they can watch them do it.
“They might win with the party insiders, but what about with the rest of America?”
Good question. I wonder if they think they have enough illegal aliens and other fraudulent votes to overcome the common sense of real Americans. They just may...
Democrat policies are 100% focused on putting Democrats in power, keeping Democrats in power, and making sure Democrats aren’t prosecuted for abuses of power.
LOL!!
Give the money to every ex slave that is still alive.
And have it paid from every ex slave owner that is still alive.
I’ll tell ya what though, I think this would drive away a lot more votes than it will get for a dem candidate.
Blacks already vote 96 percent for the dem.
There’s nothing to be gained by such an idiotic stance.
Though black men wised up quite a bit and ONLY voted hillary at 78 percent. I do believe that 20 percent less than usual helped us in the upper midwest and PA
Dems know it could never pass both chambers. They are a joke and everything is a game to them.
God they make me sick lol
Black people will get $3 worth of reparation but pay $3000 worth of climate change, change you can believe in.
When Obama kept telling them Black Live Matters because they do not believe in Climate Change, and black people were cheering, I was like, seriously?
