Getting Rid of the Electoral College Blight

[AccessBlaster]

Had the Secret Service and FBI not colluded to delete the select committee text messages, we might have gotten to the bottom of this. But like everything the dems are involved with becomes a "a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma."

DC Police Chief Sund, gave the House and Senate security officials a 2 day heads up about the crowd size, imagine how many cop suicides that could have prevented.

Get to the bottom of what? Trump not doing his job on J6?

DC Police Chief Sund,

Imagine if Chief Sund worked for the DC Police.

Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund, I stand corrected

There is no justification for storming the capital building.

OK, but Democrats operate on optics and there have been reports of "agitators" in the crowd encouraging people to riot. Both Harris and Bowser refused the assistance of the National Guard. Translation, both Pelosi and Bowser wanted the riot to occur so they could make a stink about it being an "insurrection" (a falsehood).

Anyway, if your so concerned about the evil orange man corrupting democracy, you need to take a look at Harris. Seems that she is an even bigger liar and fraud than your assertion that Trump is. Harris, a supposed tough prosecutor help setup a bail fund to bailout rioters in Minneapolis. When does a prosecutor bailout defendants? These rioters were being "insurrectionists" and she was helping them along. The did significant damage. That is an affront to democracy.

Harris, as a prosecutor, with great solemnity claims to follow the law. Yet we have "X" million illegal immigrants in this country. There are reports surfacing now, that Harris refused (when she was the California AG) to prosecute pedophile priests. Seems that she is a liar when it comes to enforcing the law.

There are reports surfacing that steve assaulted a kid for walking on his lawn.

Doesn't make it true does it? I mean there are reports of it so it must be true right?

Maybe you should also fact check your bail fund report.

Did Kamala Harris Donate to The Bail Project?

Did Kamala Harris donate to The Bail Project? Her entry into the presidential race has inspired misinformation about charitable bail funds.

The Bail Studies FOX News Doesn’t Want You To Read

The anti-bail reform headlines and reports pushed out by “big media” are numerous.

Can a DA prosecute a case where the statute of limitations has long run and the only redress is civil?

That did not stop Bragg, a Democrat! Nor did it stop the Democrats in Trump's fake ra** case where they passed a special law to temporarily lift the statue of limitations so they could (illegally) file charges against Trump. Democrats are very "innovative" in twisting the law to implement lawfare against Republicans.

Doesn't make it true does it?

Nor does it make if false. Again, you make a pointless statement.

PS: Just heard a Harris add. She said she answers tough questions. If that is the case, why did she refuse the easy question of how many illegal immigrants are now in the US. She deflected answering that question by placing the blame on Trump. Once again Harris demonstrated that she is a lair and fraud.

Trump could have done it during the commercials but he was too busy flipping between channels

You will notice that none of the Trump people will "like" this. Sometimes you wonder if there is no limit to their denials, or deflections.

That's because you live in an alternative universe that doesn't comport with reality, obviously

Like it? When read through trump colored glasses they'll just call it word salad, yell "TDS!" and order another trump flag.

I just read the complaint in trumps $10 billion lawsuit v 60minutes. I'm conflicted whether I should feel sorry for the attorneys who filed it or not. A self inflicted wound I suppose. I got the impression client management isn't their strong suit.

I think it's venued in @Thales750 neck of the woods in front of the judge who's often shopped.

There is no justification for storming the capital building. Period.

Tell that to the Democrats who have shut down the capitol building. Start with AOC and her buddies.
Look at the videos of the Capitol police waiving the protesters into the building. Or don't look because that doesn't fit your narriative.

There were criminal acts that took place that day. Even cold-blooded murder. The murderer got off though because he was black and she was white AND a Trump supporter so it didn't count. Punish the criminals. Hold Nancy accountable for refusing to allow Trump to call in the National Guard. Acknowledge that the guards were waving people in. Acknowledge that the FBI had agents in the crowd trying to stir up trouble and get stupid people to storm the building. Isn't this called entrapment? These people are on video. Why are they not in jail?

 

[moke123]

get stupid people to storm the building.

I'll just leave it there.

Today is the day, today we see 5 million Texas votes switched to the other side.

When the day comes that Texas turn all the way Blue; Blues for 60 million hard core Conservatives will take on a whole new meaning.
It won't happen today, but the storm is coming.

Texans Government will be on a mad rush to end winner-take-all.

Personally, I don't really care who wins this elevation, a move to balance is inevitable in any event. The cost of all this idiotic brainwashed-induced-politics is actually finely being recognized by people with average intelligence.

Texas Blue is coming for you, you'll wish you had changed it to be representative of the People, while it was still Purple.

People in other states are saying EXACTLY the same thing because THEIR vote is being stolen and cast for Harris. So if you want change, get your state legislature to change the way it allocates its electoral votes and stop complaining. Get enough people together. Circulate petitions. Get the proposal on the ballot for 2026 and maybe you can stop whining in 2028. Elections have consequences.

Clearly, you don't understand why states choose the winner-take-all option. It has NOTHING to do with what party you align yourself with. There were not even official political parties when the Electoral College was envisioned so this is not a Republican/Democrat issue.

Texas Blue is coming for you

At least half of the country wishes you had all stayed in California and not spread out to ruin Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Arizona, and now Texas. When you vote for destructive policies, you ought not be able to just move to a new state after you've wrecked the one you were living in. When you think that camping on public sidewalks and defecating and shooting up on streetcorners is a "right", then you need to be OK with those things encroaching on your property in front of your house and have your children have to learn to look for needles in their playgrounds.

They have more privileges when held pretrial than in a sentence pod

Umm, I'd take issue with that. Based on conversations with people who have been incarcerated and lots of reading, the local Jail is often a much worse environment than Prison. Which is often the 2 places in play.

 

[Isaac]

I love the argument that since nobody else did anything trump didn't have to.

If your house was burning and no one else called the fire dept would you just keep watching fox?

I'd only know my house was burning because of Fox, so frankly I'd probably factor that in

you don't get held pre-trial in a prison. They are held in jails. There's a difference. Granted some get held in prison hospitals pre-trial while being evaluated for criminal responsibility or other mental health issues. Based on hundreds of conversations with actual clients, as well as visits to many jails and prisons.

I'm a native Texan, and clearly large numbers confuse you. Texas is larger than France, with a country sized economy. And, oh yeah, you are correct in only point, the original intent is no longer applicable.
Texas is the preininate Purple state. If it turns Blue and keeps it's winner-take-all policy, it will be numerically impossible to get any Republican elected to the White House. All those other Red states combined will be powerless to stop the juggernaut.

You continuously insult me, based I imagine, on your contempt for anyone that doesn't worship Trump. I support a representative vote for Texas because we should not take half of our votes and convert them to either party. If you would listen instead of trying to find ways to prove you are right about everything, you might actually learn something.

I understand the role of rhe EC quite well, if Texas switched its winner take all to Blue you would suddenly aggree with my opinion.

Texas Blue is coming for you, you'll wish you had changed it to be representative of the People, while it was still Purple.

At least for today, Texas is still Red with about 56% of the vote for Trump and 74% of the vote now in. The political wonks say it is over in Texas.

Louisiana is still red, with 60% for Trump. Steve Scalise was re-elected with more than 66% of the vote, so no run-off.

EDITED by The_Doc_Man to correct an incorrectly stated percentage.

Texas actually swung back this time. Which still illustrates my point. If 4 or 5% of Texas Voters switched using the current system, even with Trump having the Popular vote, Harris would win the election. That gives power to the state, one of the reasons we have the EC, but it would take away the voice from the People.
Idealy, Purple should indicate moving from the extremes, but even if it reduces the desolation of votes that would be an improvement.
