Even Lincoln, AFTER HIS ELECTION, had to sneak into Washington because the losers wanted to shoot him, even before he was inaugurated, and did in fact, did ambush him, but their shots missed!


Yeah, that’s great justification for a vote stealing sleaze bag. You do realize that a civil war came after this election, right?

This has nothing to do with the current state of American politics.

I’m a Trump supporter, and know Cruz rhymes with lose, but remember; what is one man’s “vote stealing” is another’s “brilliant political move.”

Everyone is getting their knickers all in a twist. Compared to the elections of the 1960s and the 1860s through the 1880, this is child’s play.

Few remember that Nixon actually won in 1960, but because the Daley Machine stole the critical Chicago and Illinois vote, Kennedy was assumed to be the winner.

The FBI went to Nixon in early December with the proof that he had actually won Illinois and as a result, the national election, and that proof would have been enough to get the Senate and House to vote him in.

Nixon said “no, that America thought it had elected Kennedy...” and he would swallow his pride and not protest. Compared to that, 2016 is Amateur Night.

I would also remind all of us of JR’s learned admonition that come Fall, we all have to WORK TOGETHER to defeat Hillary.
