‘First Principles’ Looks At The Education Of Founding Fathers | Morning Joe | MSNBC
ANYONE telling you that the election is over is LYING TO YOU!!!!! Read on to learn why OR choose to remain ignorant.
FACT: In the 2000 Election, liberals and media were screaming fraud!! Al Gore was given 37 days and 2 Supreme Court decisions before the election was settled. So, why are liberals and media against Trump being afforded the same LEGAL rights?? FACT: In states across the country, the Democrat Party filed multiple lawsuits in multiple states, PRIOR TO THE VOTE, to change multiple voter laws concerning mail-in ballots that would: eliminate the signature requirement, the postmark requirement, witness signature requirements, identification requirements and vote count oversight. WHY WOULD THEY BE DOING THIS IF NOT TO CHEAT????
Analogy: In the MIDDLE of the Super Bowl (US Election), one of the coaches (Democrat Party) has gone to the referees (judges/courts) to change the rules
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GAME!!!!
What does the Constitution say?? ONLY State Legislatures have the ability to control the Election, through the Electoral College, NOT the Federal Government!! The Constitution is what matters, NOT what liberal media believes or what activist judges decide!!
What does election law say? American voters go to the polls on the Tuesday following the first Monday in November, BUT the ballots that they cast DO NOT directly elect the president. Instead, the will of the voters is reflected in the actions of state electors. These electors are selected by political parties at the state level and in many cases are bound by law to vote in a way that is consistent with the results of the popular vote. In 48 states, electoral votes are apportioned on a winner-takes-all basis, while Maine and Nebraska allocate electoral votes by congressional district, with two additional votes reserved for the statewide winner.
The Electoral College: On the first Monday following the second Wednesday in December, those electors meet—typically in the capitals of their respective states—to cast their ballots. Since the establishment of the electoral college system in 1789, there have been more than 150 “faithless” electors, so called because they did not cast a vote for their party’s chosen candidate. None of these faithless electors has ever altered the outcome of an election.
On January 6 of the year following the election, a joint session of Congress is convened to tally and certify the electoral votes. If a presidential candidate has received 270 or more electoral votes, the sitting vice president, acting as president of the Senate, then declares that person to be the president-elect, thus concluding the electoral college process. If no candidate wins at least 270 electoral votes, the House of Representatives, choosing from among the top three electoral college finishers, elects the president by simple majority vote.
So, ANYONE telling you that the election is over is LYING TO YOU!!
Shut up and accept what the media tells you is what they WANT you to do!!
Think For Yourselves!!
Republicans not Trumpers. Let us be very clear. This is the Republican party. REDOUT2022
It has been said that Trump won’t read anything longer than a page, and then only if his name was prominent in each paragraph.
Contrast that with Gen. Mattis, who took an immense library of thousands of books with him to every posting.
Joe Biden is the clear and decisive winner of the election.
Trump has no credible case to argue in court.
IT’S OVER!
We are all surprised, not the institution , the will of the USA , but, only just, well done you Yanks your democracy has 4 more years. You have a lot of work ahead.
I don’t like to kick a good man when he’s down but Donald tRump is rotten no good to the core & i get pleasure bashing him every chance I get!
America so obsessed with the founding fathers!
How to keep a republic sustainable? Educate the people.
It’s a great day for the United States of AMERICA. It’s a great day for the World.
Is that a smile in Mikas eyes
In honor of Alex Trebek:
Q: This disgraced President is the only person to have both been impeached and lost the popular vote twice.
A: Who is Donald Trump?
Donald Trump just said The Walking Dead stole his election someone should tell him it’s a TV show
It’s asinine to suggest that China hasn’t congratulated Biden because they love Trump. What kind of journalism is that?
The Confederacy is what trump wants to come back, nope
I haven’t even heard the author speak, and I’m skipping over to order the book right now.
Remember when Donald tRump had to pay a $25,000,000.00 fine for fleecing thousands of gullible students with his bogus & fake University?
What if I told you the globalists want Trump to win the election fight by having votes tossed out by the courts? Would you be shocked to learn that globalists (and the deep state) are maneuvering Trump and America into precisely the scenario they wanted in order to unleash a full kinetic coup and final destruction of our constitutional republic?
Everything you are seeing right now in the media is theater. Biden isn’t the winner, but they want low-information Americans to believe he is. That way, when Trump achieves a court victory by exposing all the election fraud that took place, Big Tech and the news networks can claim Trump “stole” the election yet again. The emotional impact on those Biden supporters who are right now celebrating in the streets will be unfathomable, and it will unleash the kinetic coup that globalists see as necessary to deal the final blow against the United States of America.
If Biden maintains his “win,” on the other hand, the Leftists footsoldiers can’t be whipped up into an emotional fervor. They are happy and celebrating right now, and that’s not what the globalists and deep staters really want. Joe Biden as president may put the White House under the control of communist China, but it doesn’t destroy the nation overnight. Especially not when SCOTUS now leans conservative, and with the Senate and state legislatures mostly still held by the GOP. Trump culture is also still very much alive and well across America, even if Trump himself isn’t in the White House.
To really deal a death blow to America, globalists and the deep state need to create the illusion that Biden has won the election, then allow Trump to “steal” it from them with a court victory. Why do you think they left a massive trail of election fraud in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania? They couldn’t possibly think their blatant fraud would go unchallenged, and they know Trump’s team is capable of fielding expert lawyers who can successfully argue in the courts for tossing out questionable ballots.
Hint: Watch for left-wing whistleblowers to step forward soon with damning evidence that will hand Trump a court victory. This is all part of the globalist plan. The media won’t report the truth about any of it, and they will tell Biden supporters that Trump is a “dictator” who is abusing his authority to overrule the voters and steal the election.
Emotional whiplash, then a psychology explosion of rage
The narrative is perfect: Trump “cheated” by disenfranchising the voters and tossing out their votes, you see. That alone will justify whatever level of violence the Left plans to unleash, and this time they won’t be fielding rocks and frozen water bottles. This time it will be RPGs, mortars, automatic weapons and explosives, largely supplies by communist China and smuggled into America through Democrat states like California. That’s the real war the globalists hope to achieve, because only through that war can they weaken America enough to bring the whole country to its knees in record time.
None of this means Trump shouldn’t challenge the fraud, of course. Obviously he should challenge it. And if necessary, Trump should absolutely declare an insurrection and unleash temporary martial law, if necessary, to round up the traitors and make good on the mass arrests of those who committed fraud to rig the election. But even this move plays right into the media narrative that will seek to depict Trump as an “evil dictator.”
Remember when I first said over six months ago that when Trump declared martial law in America, you will beg for it? Now all of a sudden lots of people are realizing what I meant. It is not very likely that America emerges from this attempted overthrow without Trump invoking some very high level of military authority to stop the steal and defend the republic. And I, for one, completely support his use of the military to defend this nation from domestic enemies. More people are joining me in this realization with each passing day. Eventually, you will join me in this, too, even if you’re afraid of this possibility at the moment. Trust me what I say you’d much rather see Trump’s troops on the streets, arresting traitors and communists, than to see left-wing Marxists overthrow the White House and go door to door executing Trump supporters and donors.
There are about the only two options remaining, it seems.
In all these scenarios, Trump and his supporters need to be prepared for the unimaginable wave of violence that will be unleashed once the courts declare a Trump victory. From that day forward, America will be an active war zone, with left-wing sabotage, executions, bombings, mass murder and all kinds of mayhem that we can only begin to imagine. On top of that, you’ll have attacks on the power grid, highway transportation routes (bridges, etc.), railroads, water supplies and more.
CHAZ was a walk in the park compared to what’s coming when the courts declare a Trump victory. We’re guessing that may take anywhere from 1-2 months.
