Electoral College Must Be Postponed Until We Figure Out What’s Going On (soros/loserwoman barf!)

In a post-truth political sphere, it’s almost impossible to find consensus.

Trump won the Electoral College resoundingly; Clinton won the popular vote by millions. Trump’s November 8th coalition comprised as unusual and diverse an ideological coalition as the U.S. has seen; nearly half of Clinton voters thought Sanders should’ve been the Dem nominee.

But here are three things all Americans, no matter their politics, agree on:

1. Foreign governments should play no role in the outcome of American elections.

2. No person should ascend to the presidency due to the interference of a hostile foreign government.

3. We have absolutely no idea whether a foreign government played a role in the outcome of the recent general election, and therefore we have no idea whether a political candidate is about to ascend to the presidency due to the interference of a hostile foreign government.

I’ve been watching wall-to-wall coverage of the election for the past month, and I can’t recall hearing any Republican or Democratic operatives disagreeing with any of the above premises.

The list is getting long, Seth, pray you don’t succeed.

They are now all of a sudden not ok with meddling by a “foreign government” (which probably is not true anyway) but they are ok with “foreigners” i.e illegal aliens meddling...

And don’t forget Obama’s interference in the Israeli election.

How many million armed Americans took an oath to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic”?

I would not have the courage to overthrow a national election in which the states certified their votes, and certainly not based on the negative statement that we have “absolutely no idea whether a foreign government played a role”. Overthrowing the legitimate government of the United States is a very serious action, one that could easily be seen as starting a civil war. To take that step based on a complete absence of evidence, pushed forward merely as political fodder to question President Trump’s legitimacy, is foolhardy.

Their next strategies when this one fails:

• Send mobs to the state capitol buildings of states that Trump won to prevent members of the Electoral College from voting for Trump (December 19).
• A campaign to get Congress to throw out electoral votes from states that went for Trump in an attempt to elect Hillary (January 6).
• Send mobs to prevent the inauguration (January 20).
• A national general strike (January 21).

Seth, when CBS released false and unverifiable ‘information’ about George W. Bush's Coast Guard activities, I don't remember you or your fellow travelers complaining about ‘false news’ or an attempt to influence a US election. When during Obama’s Senate campaign sealed divorce records of his opponent Ryan were made public, did the news media complain this wasn't fair, and that there should be an investigation and possibly a re-vote?

saudi arabia gave millions to hillary’s campaign. Her candidacy is invalid, and she is disqualified.
GFU.

[silverleaf]

Maybe to the chinese donations to bill in 1996

[Gator113]

Amen....

[calljack]

I nominate you for “Post Of The Day”

[Nifster]

Since the first part of statement three is true we do nothing. No evidence does not mean something happened

Can you imagine republicans making this argument?

[silverleaf]

20% saudi funding of Hillary’s campaign?

[SauronOfMordor]

On another thread, the Saudi Crown Prince says Saudi Arabia financed 20% of Hillary’s campaign.

[bray]

Number 3 makes 1&2 irrelevant.

Pray America woke

[rktman]

That would be like not following the rules laid out in some ancient document or something. You know written by hateful slave owners.

[4yearlurker]

This is all so unbelievable! What happened??!! The Beast Clinton was supposed to win! It appears the world elite had big plans for us. Top of the list was gun confiscation.

The Obamacare law gave the president wide discretion in enforcement. That doesn't exist under the 1846 law that sets the dates for the various aspects of a presidential election. Either an act of normal legislation changes the dates, or Obama and Congress declare martial law, annul the Constitution and set their own dates outside the law.

[EnigmaticAnomaly]

"Do these @sshats realize they are courting a civil war?"

I almost hope they get their wish...

[drewh]

this election just wont stop giving!

"The actions of those currently in power, makes me nervous. Apparently, they have much to hide and fear."

---------------------------------

I am pretty sure there will be no record of the last 8 years when Republicans take over all of the government January 20th. It will be as if it never happened, just an IOU note for $20 trillion dollars on Trump's desk. And the media will sound the crickets.
