Electors won't be briefed on russian hacking

[haymarket]

How long will it take you to engage reality and accept Trump won the election?

When did I ever deny that Trump wins the EC and becomes the president?

There is no right wing apologists for Trump, he won, why would we apologize?

Those who lower themselves to the intellectual level of a petulant grade school child and hurl insults like BUTT HURT... CRYBABY .... WHINER .....and the rest of such nonsense need to apologize for thrown childish tactics.

As soon as your comments stop filling those descriptions, Ill stop using those words.

Every time you use the words illegitimate you are denying he won. I see you refused to move past the election and examine what you should be learning from why and how Hillary lost.

Yes the people voted - by a margin of nearly three million in favor of Clinton.

Yay!!! Hillary won a race that wasn't being run! So, she she get an office that doesn't exist to go with it!
Trump won the election for the Presidency, so he gets to be POTUS. See how it works? Nope, you don't.

Was Hamilton a Founding Father? In Federalist Paper #68 he describes the special nature of the electors.



Clearly Hamilton is describing far far more than just average citizens doing civic duty. He states the electors have a SPECIAL PURPOSE and must be worthy of the peoples TRUST and be CONFIDED in. There are not just citizens, but men MOST CAPABLE who POSSESS THE INFORMATION AND DISCERNMENT necessary to carry out their special task and responsibility that the great masses will never be trusted to perform.

They are indeed special with special powers

Thanks for the chuckle. You probably think celebrities are also special. Yes, Hamilton was one of the founding fathers.

3 - What causes people to vote the way they do? If you don't think the constant daily flood of wikileaks material over the last month had no effect on how people voted - then nothing effects peoples votes and campaigning and advertising and everything else is simply a waste of time. And that makes no sense.

At least I agree with that. I think campaigning and advertising are a waste of time. I think we should be able to get the information we need from televised debates and interviews. You tell me, did the political onslaught from the right cause you to change your intended vote? I didn't think so.

 

[Anthony60]

You seem to be missing the point and getting terribly confused.

There probably is evidence that Russia was behind the hacking --- that doesn't mean that the Trump election was illegitimate.

What would prove the election was illegitimate would be evidence that Russia literally hacked into the polling systems and changed people's votes. You first said that would be proven after the investigation is done and then you said it was already proven.

So, you're confused and grasping at straws here. Evergreen.

I just find it so funny that the left is all upset that we got to see emails about what cheaters, crooks, and liars that Hillary and DNC are. Yeah, we don't want the public to know that! That's secret! And trump's illegitimate because we got information on Hillary (nothing new, we know how bad she is).

And now, arguing that the electors should be given all the information possible because they are "special". HA, HA, HA!

And to boot, Wikileaks says they didn't get the info from the Russians.

There is a difference between legal and legitimate in the eyes of Americans.

can you tell us how you win states without winning the popular vote in that state?

Why would you laugh at Hamilton and his writings?

The part you agreed with was unabashed complete sarcasm to get across the very idea of how stupid is it to hide your head in the sand and pretend events DO NOT impact voters and effect decisions as to who to vote for. :roll::shock::doh

Fully agree. The Russian thing is all a smoke screen using the art of misdirection. liberals are pissed because someone else borrowed their playbook and used it against them...Too funny! :lamo

can you tell us how you win states without winning the popular vote in that state?

You act as thou this is something new....it's not!

 

[MickeyW]

Looks like Trump won big and I think hillary lost some. :lamo

If I were an EC person and these scumbags from Hollywood and around the country were harassing me, I'd vote for Trump for sure!

Who said the EC is not new? And who said candidates are not trying to win the most votes possible?

If there was any question about your fitness for such a position, I think you cleared that up.

No, you can go ahead and tell us how you think that would happen.

I may have misread your post, but it doesn't make a lot of sense anyway.

Exactly.

 

[Anthony60]

Exactly.

You are right, I don't know WTF he's talking about.

Just liberal Americans. Most Americans associate winning the Electoral College to make that person the President both legally and legitimately. You are in deep, deep denial about all of Hillary's faults and want someone to blame for her loss. It cant be that she was a bad candidate and wanted bad policy.

This was another change election and you folks put up the most establishment candidate possible, in my opinion.

Americans are Americans are Americans. I think William Shakespeare said that ... or something darn similar.

And I completely accept the reality that Clinton was not a good candidate and made mistakes on the campaign trail. And that contributed to her loss.

But that does not preclude nor exclude the reality that the Russian wikileaks daily Chinese Death of a Thousand cuts had a deep effect as well as the Comey letter which washout there for over a week as over ten million people voted in the meantime.

that hurt her also and in an extremely close election where she lost some key states by rather small margins - EVERYTHING played a part and cannot be ignored.

ant makes no sense. All I did was explain what the founders intended with the EC. I do not know where all the other vitriol came from.

Really? :doh

yep, it did 'play a part'....But, the thing that has to be acknowledged by libs is that what was leaked was true....No one, and I mean NO ONE connected with the leaked information out there is denying what is there. So, your argument, which is odd to tell the truth coming from progressive liberals, that usually rail for transparency, and openness regardless of whom or what it hurts, are not out there bitching that their candidate was outed, and damaged by this truthful information....It is the height of hypocrisy....

And excuses are a poor substitute for learning from mistakes. Crack those books open, you aren't showing evidence of having learned anything.

OK, then I don't agree with you, only with what you wrote.
