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?”

Of course, the old harridan is not at all concerned that a few dozen house seats are apportioned to states based on their large illegal alien populations, and doubtless a fair number of them are voting in presidential and other elections.

Hillary, like those on the Left, will say that if you are convicted of murder, and don’t like the consequences, you fight to change the law.

If they paid me a thousand dollars for every word out of her corrupt, lie spewing booze hole, I would go.
Vet bills took most of my new truck money, and I really need a new truck.

“This about guarentees the crazy bitch is running again in 2020. She’s obsessed.”

Please run, Hillary, so we can watch you suck the air out of every other democrat’s campaign, ride the “coronation” wave of the MSM for a third time, and go down in flames again in spite of all the dirty underhamded, illegal and corrupt BS you pull trying to steal your throne.

I think clearly in the summer of 2016, a lot of the big players knew the state-by-state situation was not working for Hillary (even Bill Clinton knew it). They all kept looking at the national numbers and convincing themselves that it’d all work out.

I sat in Germany on election night (8 hours prior to the end) and they were so gleeful and peppy on her anticipated win....and fell apart at the end.

I believe the lopsided vote for Hillary in California was due to the illegal vote. In Washington State we had a similar lopsided vote. Of course, the Democrats registered 180,000 voters before the elections. Most of them came from migrant worker districts.

Direct Democracy kills nature’s animals because there is nobody to represent them.

Animals need LAND.

Democracy needs coffin micro apartments, crammed with voters.

Democrats are extincting nature.
Democrats are evil.

HilLIARy is an even sadder spectacle than McShame or flake or kasick. Embarrassing too when she does it overseas.

We don’t elect presidents by person. We elect them by states.

So why isn’t Hillary also holding rallies to help Democratic candidates fend off their Republican challengers?

She has the charm of a rattlesnake and her health issues are unknown. There is a possibility she could zone out and let another deplorable comment fly or even worse..

Why are these traitors still walking around free as a bird is beyond me. There is so much evidence for her and her cohorts to be arrested. “Enough already” is right!
