The Progressive’s New War Cry: Abolish the Electoral College!

Nobody’s Opinion:

America spoke last week…. Loud. Clear. And with great dignity.

We do NOT want the politicians ruining our lives anymore.

The progressive losers are in the biggest disbelief of their lives.  How did this happen? Puppies are being given to tearful freshmen on college campuses.

My son said his girlfriend cried. elect-college-one

They were so SURE that Donald Trump would never, ever, in their wildest dreams become President.  The heartbreak…almost unbearable. You COULD feel sorry for them if not for the fact that these are actually grown people.  

They lost. Fair and square. Even with all of Hillary’s cheating, treasonous felonies, and support of her many famous friends they lost. BIG TIME. The little nobodies out in Fly over country, the people who have been sucked dry of their lives, and their country, told the progressives: No more.

So, you would think, like adults, they would accept the results, like many of us did in 2008. The conservative American, didn’t call to get rid of the electoral college…when Obama was elected.  We didn’t riot in the streets. There were a lot of us who saw Obama for what he really was, but we accepted the vote. We blamed George W. Bush for Obama. At least I did. The bail out of Wall Street was all on Bush, and that’s one of the big reasons Obama was elected.

So, today, we feel the liberals should blame Hillary Clinton, for being the criminal she is.

But no. Only tears of sorrow for her. They tell themselves, the election was STOLEN by the electoral college.

They are telling themselves: Why…she didn’t lose!

How DARE those handful of  farmers in Iowa have the same rights as the millions of illegals in southern California! It’s not fair. Hillary won the popular vote!

That’s the new calling cry. “Hillary won!” Yeah, Right. Look at the map where she won. Hillary is blue.

Look at that map and tell me the blue should rule over the gray. trump-map-2

The progressives now are at their weakest in the American history. The ONLY way they could win, would be by popular vote. California and New York, could decide every election forever more, and that would be just fine with them. 

Right now, they are trying to get the electors to CHANGE their vote to Hillary Clinton. It’s their last breath of survival. And if they can’t do that, then for the next 4 years, we are going to hear their cries on every campus to get rid of the electoral college.

Eric Holder stated it already.

Michael Moore is also jumping on it:

Trump is an “illegitimate president and does not have the vote of the people,” Moore told NBC News as he ascended up the floors of the ornate building that bears Trump’s name in gold on the front of it.

Michael Dukakis got out of his tank to join in: elect-three

“Hillary won this election, and when the votes are all counted, by what will likely be more than a million votes. So how come she isn’t going to the White House in January? Because of an anachronistic Electoral College system which should have been abolished 150 years ago,” he wrote Sunday in an email to POLITICO.

Sign the petition!

Trump won a decisive victory in the Electoral College Tuesday night and could finish with 306 electoral votes to Clinton’s 232. However, the Electoral College does not officially cast its votes for president until December 19, giving optimistic celebrities and Clinton supporters hope that its members could go against the wishes of their state’s voters and instead switch their votes to Clinton.

Good luck with that.

Here’s why I am not worried. To get rid of the electoral college (by the way it’s been tried before) they would have to have a Constitutional Amendment: which takes approval of both houses of Congress and all state legislatures.

And guess who won almost all of these? The republicans. Ha ha ha ha…guess you guys will have to wait until some other time.

Nope. The country voted to KEEP their country from the foreign invasions, and kick out the corruption in Washington D.C.

Our founders invented the electoral college to give the little guy just as much voice as the state with the most population. They KNEW the danger of “democracy” which is popular vote.

It was smart, and it’s a forever guard against tyranny. elect-six

The progressive know, that these young kids have already been programmed to be stupid. “It’s not fair” will be the cry from now on from most all of these people.

The left is always crying and moaning about protecting those without a voice. Well, then they should above all others protect the electoral college because it gives voice to the minority.

It’s that simple.

And by the way, if you Google Electoral College, you will see all kinds of opinions why it SHOULD be abolished.

Remember, they won’t stop the propaganda.

 At best, the choice of president if you got rid of the electoral college, would always be decided by the largest, most populous States with little regard for the smaller ones. elect-five

This will be their new march: Obama plans to go to Greece, the birthplace of democracy to PUSH for the popular vote. And they plan to continue the protests, to make you think that it’s a revolution of the people.

It’s right out of the old communist playbook….but this time, I have a feeling, President Trump, and the American people,  will be ready.

  1. I agree that the Electoral College will never be abolished: To do so would require an amendment to the U.S. constitution, which in turn would require sparsely populated states to voluntarily surrender the political power that they currently have.

    Fortunately, there is a solution already in the works which, although it will not abolish the Electoral College, it will render the E.C. quite irrelevant.

    The only reason that the E.C. is able to work its mischief is that virtually all states allocate all their electors to whichever candidate garners a majority — perhaps even a plurality — of presidential votes cast in those states. I value the method of rule called democracy.

    There is currently an effort afoot to get large states to enter into an interstate compact. Signatories to the compact agree that at a time in the future all signatories will pool their electors and allocate them to the candidate who garners a majority of the national popular vote. And what is that time? It is when the cumulative electoral votes of all signatories reach a number that amounts to a majority of all electoral votes. From that time forward all the signatory states commit their electors to the popular-vote winner.

    The E.C. Will continue to exist, but its ability to foist an also-ran candidate upon a nation that preferred the other candidate will no longer apply. You may not like it, but no one gets everything in life.

    • Mmmmmm….interesting. I doubt if that happens in my lifetime, but then again, I never thought Americans would elect a man whose name was Barack Hussein Obama. That would be like electing a man named Gunther Hitler Routt after WWII. But they did.

      • Unless your remaining lifetime is quite short — and I certainly hope you have many decades to go — you may be in for a surprise in that regard. The last I heard, numerous states (including my own, Illinois), plus the District of Columbia, have already signed onto the Compact.

        Stay tuned …

      • Note: I didn’t intend my following comment to be published anonymously, but my stubby, half-paralyzed fingers “pulled the trigger” prematurely. So, I am republishing with my name.

        Your complaint that California and New York would run the show in an electoral situation wherein the majority vote was the determining factor is, I think, unfounded. Is it not so that if Wyoming voted for Candidate A by as little as a one-vote margin, then the votes of those Wyomingans who voted for Candidate B would just be discarded and ignored — and would you not be bothered by that?

  2. They built up an image of a bogeyman, and now they are scared of him. Stupid buggers.
