Pressure on members of the electoral college to select someone other than Donald Trump has grown dramatically — and noisily — in recent weeks, causing some to waver but yielding little evidence that Trump will fall short when electors convene in most state capitals Monday to cast their votes.
Carole Joyce of Arizona expected her role as a GOP elector to be pretty simple: She would meet the others in Phoenix and carry out a vote for Trump, who won the most votes in her state and whom she personally supported.
But then came the mail and the emails and the phone calls — first hundreds, then thousands of voters worrying that Trump’s impulsive nature would lead the country into another war.

What time on Monday is this charade over with?
...”After millions of people voted to elect Trump. Do these people think their opinions should carry more weight?!”...
Yes, they think that because they have used small groups to threaten, use aggressions and shove policies that people didn’t want down their throats for many years. They thought they had a control tool in political correctness and the divisions which it engendered which would rule forever. They thought the dictatorship they had going had this nation wrapped up. They thought the propaganda of their media and entertainment would suppress any and all other thought or logic. Now, they have to face the fact that 65,000,000 very determined and savvy, common folks are not going to sit back and watch their nation destroyed. I once read that it takes only 3% of a determined population to change the political world. 65 million is much more than 3%. It does seem that the principalities which we battle are of a very disturbed “spiritual” nature. Who can determine such things, for sure?
They lose again Monday.
The next series of battles will be impeachments, a word that the GOP (who remember had a House majority) could not ever utter, but that Democrats will use constantly from now on.
The only battle for Trump’s agenda will be against the GOPe.
“After millions of people voted to elect Trump. Do these people think their opinions should carry more weight?! “
To a liberal the societal rejection of liberalism is unendurable. It must be wrong! Their thinking allows no alternatives. They can’t for a moment put themselves into another’s viewpoint and imagine what the world looks like to them. This vote was all a misunderstanding, a failure of messaging. It must be made right (forgive me, excessive exclamation points coming, turn your head aside now.)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On Tuesday, maybe then can try to levitate the Pentagon.
On Tuesday the Libs will start a GoFundMe page to build a time machine to alter history and undo the election.

As bozo pokes the Bear for purely political advantage...
Some on our side need to stop writing off Hispanics.
Conservatives should start wearing ‘Trump 2020’ t-shirts out in public to really send the moonbats over the edge...
Thousands, Citation required! And please present proof of Russian intervention also! heh heh
Thanks - Don’t tweet a lot - mostly watch day trading pops but I’m now following MAGAtrump5 - he/she does seem connected ... harking back I don’t recall the reports of the electors meeting for Obummer of Dubya’s election but tomorrow should be different ... should be interesting!
Are HOMEMADE BULLETS okay? - Even if they contain parts of
BURNED FINGERS? (It’s difficult to pour bullets by hand!!)
Panic setting in!!!!!
We do NOT “write off” Hispanics who came here the old-
fashioned way (LEGALLY). In fact, they probably resent
the cheaters themselves.

Why don’t those poor liberal snowflakes just go out and drown themselves?
I said "some", not all.

I agree, and the snippet I posted from that article would support that.
