Hillary Clinton: Time to abolish the Electoral College
CNN ^ | September 13, 2017 | Dan Merica

Posted on 09/13/2017 8:04:29 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

Hillary Clinton told CNN on Wednesday that it is time to abolish the Electoral College, part of a sweeping interview where the former Democratic nominee sought to explain why she lost the 2016 election.

Clinton, in the interview with CNN's Anderson Cooper, displayed her animus for fired FBI Director James Comey, reflected on her love for the people -- namely former President Bill Clinton -- who helped her get through the crushing loss and blasted the arcane election body that she believes helped Donald Trump win the presidency.

Hillary is becoming more and more unhinged.

Now she's trying to out-Marx the commie Bernie Sanders with her electoral college brainstorms.

In addition, per her statements in the article, she's apparently living in a dream world where she considers her marriage-in-name-only to the unfaithful Bubba to be a world where she's happy with the arrangement and considers it to be normal and satisfactory to her as this strange union grinds on...and on...and on.

This woman is seriously delusional...and yet the MSM continues to foist her on us, cramming her down our throats as if her electoral college ravings and her cringeworthy marital relationship are newsworthy and normal....and are a benefit to the future of our country.

Without it, four New York boroughs would have made her president.

In the final four weeks of that campaign season...her advisers had to know that numbers were awful close in four states. Every bit of effort with the final three weeks should have been aimed at the four states in question. You don’t see that.

They are hypnotized to some degree to the idea that they just need national numbers, and not worried about state-by-state voting trends. I’d give almost one-third of the blame for her loss toward these dismal characters. They were paid to get her ahead and they failed.

Over the years, the population cities will rot, malls will fail, strip malls will rot, people will not leave their ghetto coffin apartments, the neighborhood will be infested with weeds and crime.

The electoral college will have succeeded. Only the suburbs and rurals will have spirit and life.

With the millions of illegal votes the democrat party pays for every election cycle I'm sure they'd love to do away with the Electoral College. The liberal, globalist, scum in NY, LA, and Chicago, all like the idea because they think it's only right thet they rule the nation and tell all the serfs in flyover country how to live.

Without the Electoral Collage, a breakup of the US would be inevitable.

That’s the way they think. Something frustrates you from immediate gratification?
Abolish it.
Don’t like guns? Just outlaw them.
Jail this criminal!

I wonder what the significance is of our having to see Hilary’s headlines five times per hour on free republic.

Translation: I couldn’t win under the rules that have existed since our nation’s founding, therefore the rules must be at fault - and we must change them.

Given the chance Hillary would have made Hitler/Stalin/Mao’s body count look like a weekend in Chicago.
