IN ENGLAND, HILLARY TRASHES AMERICA’S ELECTORAL COLLEGE
Grabien ^ | June 25, 2018

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?”

And she wasn’t even trying to win the popular vote - so she “won” something that doesn’t count, doesn’t really exist, and she wasn’t even trying to win...so what?

Donna Bazile was actually trying to pump the popular vote in Chicago and NOLA. Using campaign funds that might have gone to Michigan or Wisconsin. Thank goodness for stupid Democrats.

The NY Yankees outscored the Pittsburgh Pirates 55 to 27 in total runs in the 1960 World Series.

The Yanks never went around trashing the best of 7 games rule.

Yep. She was too damn stupid and lazy to pursue the requisite EC strategy. It’s not Trump’s fault she didn’t read the Constitution.

She rates right up there as one of the most bitter, vile, evil creatures to ever breathe God’s air.

MSNBC also called Trump the “apparent winner” in Florida and kept that designation all night.

It was the only state they labeled as such. Same for NBC.

Hills has no self respect or grace. She feels no shame ND makes a fool of herself traveling around looking for anyone to listen to her sore loser whining. Think about it, who can respect a person who wanted to be leader of her country, and because she ran a lousy and weak campaign and lost is now out there trashing her own country.

Hillary, you won the entire "popular vote" margin in California. Why should one state rule over the rest of the country?

Because then the Wicked Witch would be Queen of America. For her, it's all about her.

The vote margin was most likely illegal aliens.

I just finished watching compilation videos of election night.
They never get old.

MAGA!

The electoral college makes many, many more states relevant, rather than just a few bog population states.

Basically it makes a lot more citizens votes matter to the election outcome.

So you can see why the socialists like hitlery hate it.

She also hates it because men designed the electoral system.

The most fascinating & perplexing thing about HRC has to be......who would actually be bored enough to go & hear that woman speak & do the fake hearty laugh thing????

The ONLY way I could justify it would be if I were starving & they had free food. I cannot comprehend who goes to her speeches.
