Hillary Can Be a Hero by Saving America from Trump [More Electoral College Intervention Fantasy]
Huffington Post ^ | December 7, 2016 | Robert S. McElvaine

Posted on 12/08/2016 4:31:14 AM PST by C19fan

Hillary Clinton won the 2016 Presidential Election by a decisive margin—more than 2.5 million votes. Because of the Electoral College she will not become President. But she could still emerge as a winner—indeed, a hero—by utilizing the Electoral College to save America and the world from the inestimable calamity of a Trump presidency. Since a few days after Election Day, I have been pushing for the Electors to do what the Framers of the Constitution intended and save the Republic from the presidency falling into the hands of an incompetent demagogue who had been assisted by a hostile foreign power.

Liberal logic
1) Hillary won the popular vote
2) The popular vote is what matters
3) Electors should ignore the popular vote in their state

Barack and JILL teamed up with Hill
To fetch a pail of voters
But Hill fell down and lost “THE CROWN”
When the Trumpster filled his quota

Hill remained down and wore a frown
Her supporters are all a-reeling
She sobbed and moped cause all is broke
Except her intact “glass ceiling”!

Our cat is smarter than this moron, so don’t compare cats to this ‘trained monkey who hit a keyboard and wrote this crap’. Heck, I think my cat walking on my keyboard (he does) could write something more intelligent.

“Subtract out all the votes from illegals & other fraud and he won the popular vote handily.”

The MSM pundits will sneer at that; where is the evidence illegals voted, they will ask (despite being encouraged to do so by Obama). Then, they will turn right around and claim that the Russians hacked the election for Trump, with no evidence at all, and ignoring the complete impossibility of it.

My hunch says the Democrats have anywhere from a 2-5% built in advantage from Illegals and Fraud. It can be overcome, but only if Honest voters turn out in very large numbers.

I guess it’s time to start “doxxing” the electors from the states Hillary won

I would have been mortified by that suggestion just a few short years ago.

However, Trump's success has taught me that we must hold our noses, tighten our guts, and fight Alinsky fire with Alinsky fire.

Where can we get hold of a list of these electors?

HuffPo really likes sub IQ, low achievement female grifters.

Hey HuffPo, where would your wench be had she not boinked and married the master grifter?

These people can not see beyond their noses to what the consequences would be if they could pull this Hail Marry off. Not only do you disenfranchise and piss off all those that voted for Trump you now have union guys and the working class behind Trump after saving jobs at Carrier and Ford and getting a major investor to say he will create 50,000 jobs here.

These are not the liberal pansies that prance in the street or the thugs that riot and play the knock out game these are the guys that have been buying enough guns to supply the worlds 3rd largest army every year since 9-11. This whole thing is stupid.

What people like this are really saying is ‘saving America from the Americans who don't think like me’. What he's saying is entirely dismissive of the will of the people, and essentially says that people from cities should be able to dictate how the rest of America lives.

With this line of reasoning, why don't we just have a test to see who gets to vote? Sample questions: 1. What is the difference between Kobe beef and hamburger? 2. Name any famous shoes made in Italy. 3. What would be paired better with Branzino - Pinot grigio or an Amarone? etc..

It would be funny as all get out if Hillary electors, reacting negatively to this effort to suborn the Electoral College, wind up voting for Donald Trump in protest, and she gets fewer than 232 votes.

Don’t you find it ironic with Repuplicans effectively controlling almost 2/3 of the states, that illegal voting and state university funding of anti-american
study and activity continues to grow?

Too many blame progressive communists for the things our traitorous republicans contol.
