I think people know he won. You've posted more than one thread alerting us to this fact. It was totally in the news.

There's been a heavily reported attempt by Democrats and leftists to overturn the results of the election and have the Electors change their votes to someone else. Yes we all know that Donald Trump won the election, we also know that the opposition is still trying to do something, anything to prevent it.

No not really. There's been reports of fringe elements trying to make an argument for that but any media reporting I've seen has stated quite bluntly that it won't happen. Hell some stated would just appoint a new elector who will vote along the line. No sane person believes anything else will happen.

theres an SNL video of Hillary (Kate McKinnon) asking a EC voter to switch to Tom Hanks. It was mildly amusing.


Oh, and as much as I dislike Trump, the idea of EC voters NOT doing what they're supposed to do is a very dangerous precedent and probably should not even be considered.

Should the EC "dump Trump" and protect us from a demagogue? I certainly hope they would. Is it likely they will do so? No, and nothing good will come of this.

Sane people aren't ruling anything out in an election where even some diehard conservatives objected to Trump.

Realistically? Trump will probably be confirmed. But this is one of the few years where the EC vote isn't set in stone, and we shouldn't act like it is.

Which is why Pennsylvania is providing them with police protection after numerous harassing messages and calls.

Get over it, we even had Hollywood "celebrities" calling on them to change their votes and now since Kaz starts a thread you and other lefties get all huffy about it.

I thought I'd read somewhere that legally, the results must be turned in no later than nine days after. I'm wondering if some results will be withheld just because they can.

Kaz starts a thread, then Kaz starts another thread about the same shit, then Kaz starts another thread about the same shit, and then Kaz starts another thread about the same shit.
I think kaz and taj are the same drumpf-fluffer, just alt accounts, they kinda go in lockstep with each others moronic views, and drump adulation

Glad to see you're ok Meghan, I laughed my ass off when you disappeared after the election, what'd you take off a week or more? I was concerned, did you find a safe space and wear a safety pin?

It doesn't take much to trigger some people. There's precious little time to do a mass distribution of coloring books before the 20th but it may be worth considering.

are all drumpf-fluffers vindictive, petty little twatwaffles? I mean, drumpf is, so it goes to reason that his acolytes would be.

Just another reason I like this thread, because whiny little bitches like you are still crying, frothing and foaming about President-elect Trump.
Did you have a congenital defect that kept you from having balls? Is this why you need Trump, to be the man you aren't capable of being?

And that's all that ever mattered to GOP voters. You never cared about facts or good policy, just winning and sticking it to liberals. It's okay though. You guys own the next 2-4 years. Will have to see if things turn sour quickly enough to affect 2018.

lol.. crying? frothing? nah, you drumpf-fluffers are far too busy jerking each other off to make it anything other than sad to watch.
And your predilection for wanting to gloat over it, well that's incredibly telling. drumpf won the electoral college, lost the popular vote, maybe that's why you're so insecure, nearly as insecure as drumpf.

It is pretty disturbing how much hatred of liberals seems to drive conservative thinking. They genuinely don't seem to care much about policy.

Many liberals love speaking up for white power tough guys.

Yup. Visit any of the many right wing sites and they aren't talking about the merits of Trumps actions or policy proposals. All I see is joy and celebration and how much they perceive that those actions will piss off liberals. No discussion of bettering the country. No thought or concern for the impact to the every day person. Just petty vindictiveness of those whose opinions they oppose.

yup, the next 4 years will be 'fun' or 'interesting' or they'll love watching the libs 'squirm'
zero to do with any of drumpfs policies, when looked at, with an analytical or critical eye, fail horribly, not just for the evil liberals, but for pretty much everyone not at drumpfs' income level. Which is what exactly, that fucker never released his taxes, and please do not try to pretend if hillary didn't release hers the repubs wouldn't have a month of congressional hearings about it, or some similar level of outrage.
