Repeat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is heaping more criticism on America's electoral college, this time during an appearance at Oxford in the United Kingdom.
Clinton, who lost the 2016 presidential campaign with 232 electoral votes to President Trump's 306, has previously called for scrapping America's system of electing presidents, instead relying on a direct one-person, one-vote election.
The Democrat was lamenting the power of populism when the subject came up: “Populists can stay in power by mobilizing a fervent base. Now, there are many other lessons like this. Louise mentioned my personal experience with winning 3 million more votes, but still losing. And we will leave discussions of American Electoral College for another day, but Mounk concludes by saying, ‘Turkey also shows that political and intellectual elites, both inside the country and around the world, persistently underestimate the threat which these kinds of leaders pose to the survival of democratic institutions.’”
Clinton also suggested American citizens, under President Trump, may lose their rights to due process.
“Today, the American president tweeted there should be no judicial process, there should be no due process for anyone who crosses the border,” Clinton said. “I can’t help but think, if you strip immigrants and asylum seekers of due process and judicial review, who is next?”
You analyze and articulate very well, Leo.
Hannity and Pirro should have YOU on as their guest instead of the vile Geraldo and Chris Hahn!
“she might make her move in the next week+”
You think she’s going to “start a movement”?
good luck to her.... altho I noticed that she doesn’t look as porky as before - she’s trying to be sleek and swift..
The vote margin was most likely illegal aliens.
...
The irony is that illegal aliens are legally represented in the EC, because the number of electors is based on population, not citizens.

Good catch! Another sign that adds to my foreboding. As bagster pointed out about Q: Q & A forthcoming -- forth = fourth. I sure hope I am wrong on this.
Hillary’s nuts... unhinged. Bat-sh*t crazy.
