Trump Wins Electoral Vote in Landslide

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Democrat fascists who tried to overthrow the election failed  abysmally today.  Trump won the electoral vote today in a landslide. The only faithless electors abandoning their candidate, were Hillary electors to Bernie Sanders, Colin Powell and Spotted Eagle.

On the same day of Trump’s triumph, we saw jihad terror in Berlin and Ankara. A Russian Ambassador was gunned down in cold blood by a police officer in Turkey shouting “Allah Akbar!”  And a Nice-style terror attack took place at a Christmas market in Berlin. President Obama’s response? He went golfing after getting the news of the multiple terror attacks.

Donald Trump Completes Final Lap, Electoral College, to White House

The NY Times, December 17, 2016:

Right Now The Electoral College has affirmed Donald J. Trump as the nation’s 45th president, pushing him past the 270-vote threshold for election, with scant evidence of the anti-Trump revolt among electors that some of his critics had hoped would occur.

Late Monday afternoon, Republican electors in Texas vaulted Mr. Trump past the 270 mark, giving him 36 votes, with one each for Gov. John Kasich of Ohio and Ron Paul.

Normally a political footnote, the electoral vote took on unexpected import this year after Mr. Trump’s upset of Hillary Clinton, who won the popular vote, spawned a determined effort to block his path to the presidency by grass-roots advocates who saw him as unfit for the White House and, to some, a threat to the political system.

Presidential electors — and particularly Republican electors, who are bound by tradition and often state law to support Mr. Trump — were inundated with phone calls, emails and even threats demanding that they vote for someone else. Leaders of groups that were lobbying the electors had privately believed they had a chance to persuade enough Republican electors to defect, denying him an Electoral College majority and throwing the election to the House of Representatives. But by late Monday, only a handful of electors had broken ranks. A full vote tracker is here.

      Now it’s time to change the electoral college, not eliminate it. The problem we have today, that the founders didn’t envision, is that we have a minority of high population states that are deciding Presidential elections. This means that a majority of state legislatures have to work within a federal agenda, that the majority of the states may not agree with. That doesn’t make sense to me, & when you explain it like that, I think most people would agree that states should decide the Presidential election, not electors, & not popular vote. So here’s how we do it the fairest way.

      Each state has 10 electoral votes regardless of population, the electoral vote is automatic depending on their popular vote. There are no electors. In the event of a tie, then popular vote will decide the outcome.

      Now we could go one step further & divide each state up into 10 regions, then have automatic electoral votes for each region, but to be fair, there are more rural areas than urban areas, so let’s compromise on that.

      A nice side benefit would be that all the states would receive campaign ad dollars, while the high population states would no longer be deluged with non stop ads.

        You’ve over complicating it.

        No need for any kind of electoral vote.

        The person with the most votes, wins. You know, the way it should be. If a classroom full of first graders, vote to have a pizza party, or an ice cream party, the party with the most votes wins. Thats how we teach children voting works.

        The teacher doesnt go through and say “Jimmy counts as 3 votes because he does better at math. Sarah, you get 2 votes because you can run faster. Billy, you get 3 votes because you’re such a good reader.”

        People vote.

        The votes are counted.

        The person with the most votes wins.

        Anything else is a moronic system designed so that idiots can find loopholes.

          Can’t do that. Then only California would be electing the president…

      jdp…NOW WE CAN ALL SAY [PRESIDENT TRUMP] just for starters, and vice president Pence, but Obama is still in office till 20 Jan even when congress tallies the EV and puts Trump in to shoe box for the 20th the untelling Obama may become more dratted in his actions to stop Trump all else has failed[he will never be president] was an oath tung in cheek.
