    Poor squishy face and all of the other dullards at the MSMs are crying in their pablum this AM.
    All those specials they had planned, now to be forgotten.
    All those sad, angry and practiced faces have to be saved for another hoped for story to be hyped, exaggerated and not even close to the truth piece of fiction. .
    Did they even cover the rally(s), or were they just waiting to cut in with some BS that fit their wanted narrative?
    Do "they" even know that nothing happened because they were cut off at the knees by people who understood and saw them coming?
    How hard was Gov Blackface hoping for something to happen?
    How many of those losers hiding in that building will survive the next election?
    It does not even matter, vote against every democrat in every election.

    If voting really mattered they wouldn't let us do it.
    It got Trump in. The best (the only good one in how many years?) choice we have had since before carter.

    Sometimes I just can't tell if AOC is blind or not. I know beyond any doubt "she" is irredeemably stupid.

    I did a little research on this and this guy is probably the most accurate in what bills are being introduced and how.
    If Virginia passes this and enforces it, other states will follow.
    Not might follow, but will follow.
    And for those who say that firearms aren't a big deal to them, consider this.
    Once the 2nd amendment is crushed, they will go after other amendments.

    Good thing we have the Electoral college, it works. You vote for the clintonistas? :)
    It is worth remembering though, because as much as I like some of the "other" parties platforms we should all remember to vote against all democrats in all elections.

    I beg to differ.  These proposals have thus far been voted for along party lines.  It's every Democrat for and every Republican against these bills.  The next two elections are going to be interesting down there.

    Differ with what?
    So many different things, have to be specific.

    Well, lessee... on February 4th 2018, the Patriots gained 613 yards whereas the Eagles only gained 538. Who won? Eagles. What? How? Why? Unfair? Scored more. That's how it works. Not yards; score.

    I'm tired of this popular vote remark. As tho it means something. You score by racking up states. Some states rack up more electoral votes than others. But the general idea is, you gotta unite the country. That's how it works. Adams, Hayes, Harrison, Bush, Trump... all won without the popular vote. And if you subtract the dead voters from Texas and the multiple voters from Chicago, you have to figure that Kennedy fell short of BOTH the popular AND the electoral votes. Even casting a blind eye to the Byrd/Thurmond fiasco, while completely ignoring the Dixiecrat poll tax BS,

    ... and here's the thing: I'll bet you knew the rules when you repeated this nonsense about "popular vote".

    I dunno why it gets under my skin. It does. Democracies are ruined by demagogues. That's why they gave us a republic.

    He was referring to who it will affect, not who was voting on it.
    He meant that the bills will not single out if you are left or right, every hunter, gun enthusiast and gun owner will be affected.

    270 EC votes needed to win the office.  Using current EC allocation by state you only need to win 11 specific states:
    CA  (55)
    TX  (38)
    NY  (29)
    FL   (29)
    IL    (20)
    PA  (20)
    OH (18)
    MI  (16)
    GA  (16)
    NC  (15)
    NJ  (14)

    The rest of us are pretty much eyecandy.

     When you vote for a Presidential candidate, you aren’t actually voting for President. You are telling your State which candidate you want your State to vote for at the meeting of electors. The States use these general election results (also known as the popular vote) to appoint their electors. The winning candidate’s State political party selects the individuals who will be electors.

    There is no Constitutional provision or Federal law that requires electors to vote according to the results of the popular vote in their States. Some States, however, require electors to cast their votes according to the popular vote. These pledges fall into two categories—electors bound by State law and those bound by pledges to political parties.

    And that's how you win an election without winning the actual popular vote.

    They already brought it back but they don’t do it very in-depth. My twins are 12 and got to do it but my oldest missed out.

    My youngest can't read it.  **** liberals, cut handwriting so they can teach lefty BS like "climate change" and "tolerance" instead of how to read and write.  These kids should be able to sue the liberals into the ground for not providing them a proper education.

    Teaching to read and write is the key.  I was never taught how to write in cursive at the very conservative school I attended.  We were taught to write in italics instead and our penmanship was always graded.  Later, when I began attending another school, I basically taught myself cursive.  That is one of the reasons typing works best for me.  I can actually read it :)!
