Trending story that Clinton won just 57 counties is untrue
Elimination of the controversial electoral body is more of a long term goal, but in the short term, electors are panicking as they plan a last minute plan to block Donald Trump from becoming President.
After a surprise win and contentious race to clinch the presidency, the president-elect was selected as Time magazine’s person of the year on Wednesday. The question moving forward will be what the new president will do with party majorities in both the House of Representatives and Senate. “It’s not obstruction, it’s not partisan, it’s just a duty to find out what they’d do in these jobs”, he said. I pledge to give Donald Trump a proper and fair chance to be even greater than President Obama.
Unless the Hamilton electors coalition falls apart before the Electoral College votes, though, it’s likely that this election will at least include some faithless electors.
Stewart said he hoped to campaign with Trump during the GOP primary against Gillespie, who was quick to call Trump’s taped remarks about groping women “incredibly offensive and demeaning”. “We are going to say right now, what are we going to do?”
There was further confirmation that this was a deliberate, premeditated lie when a video surfaced of MIT professor Jonathan Gruber, one of the architects of the bill, saying that of course the promises being made were lies, but they had to be told because of the “stupidity” of American voters who wouldn’t have supported it had they known the truth.
“People know that I’m a true-blue Trump supporter”, said Trump’s former Virginia chairman Corey Stewart, who has mounted a challenge for governor in 2017 to former RNC chairman Ed Gillespie.
Facing renewed Republican control of Congress, Democrats must now consider what kind of opposition they want to be during the Trump administration. I fear he will. Democrats can not be the “go-along-to-get-along” party.
And while Trump hosts perhaps his biggest Republican critic, Mitt Romney, for marshmallows as he toys with the idea of naming him secretary of state, his former MI campaign director is mounting a challenge to Romney’s family member over control of the state party. She has raised more than $6.5 million from Clinton supporters to pay for it.
Whether conservative voters want to hear it or not, Clinton is leading in the popular vote by 1 million voters as of Thursday, Nov. 17 according to CNN’s election results.
Some Democrats rigidly oppose Trump.
Fact: Based on exit polls, Trump got a lower percentage of the white vote than Mitt Romney did in 2012, and a higher percentage of the black vote and the Hispanic vote than Romney.
Trump repeated his pledge to work toward unity at his OH rally.
Yes, he was a novel, if unpopular candidate, an outsider in a change election and a self-proclaimed champion against a borderless nation, endless wars and political correctness. (I’m sorry about my choice of words, but I found it only fitting).
I have argued with Democrats, of a largely establishment bent, that if we were to take similar measures as Republicans have done throughout President Obama’s time in office, we would be just as bad as them. We’re the dominant political force in the country.
This year, she faced a spirited challenge for the leadership position by little-known Rep. Tim Ryan of OH, a 43-year-old lawmaker just re-elected to his seventh term. “So there are going to be a core set of values that shouldn’t be up for debate and should be our North Star [unifying principle]”, Obama said. Despite how interesting this election was, if Hillary Clinton had won, many would simply sigh in relief and pray that Donald Trump wouldn’t run again in four years.
Pointing to his colleague from Alabama and Trump’s choice to lead the Department of Justice, Republican Sen.
Mr. Ryan is one Democrat who gets it. This was the year the Democrats were supposed to retake the House. It’s time for the Never Trump Republicans, bitter Democrats, and all other concerned Americans to really think about the future here.
