"Joe Biden should not concede under any circumstances because I think this is going to drag out, and eventually I do believe he will win if we don't give an inch and if we are as focused and relentless as the other side is."

Said Hillary Clinton, quoted in Politico.

Seems like a good time to ask the Professor about the theory that Democrat governors of states that go Trump will send an "alternate" slate of electors, thus causing confusion and throwing the election to the House to determine which set of electors to use... and of course the House being Democrat will seat the Democrat electors, thereby guaranteeing Joe Biden winning the electoral vote even if the people didn't vote for him.

I was under the impression that when the House votes on electoral college stuff it is one vote per state, not a count of all 435. So: does anyone know who holds a majority of state delegations? I find it darkly humorous that if true, Wyoming will have the exact same importance as California.

Back in 2016, when everyone was game planning this question, Republicans held a majority of representatives in a majority of the states. However, that doesn't answer the question of what would happen. Some Republican majority states might not vote for Trump.

If that happens then Republican governors need to immediately declare that they don't recognize Biden as the lawful president and arm themselves.

If the opposition is neither loyal nor American, but attempting to steal the election through corrupt courts, why on earth should the President treat them as something other than the criminal traitors they are? If Biden actually won on Election Night, God forbid- fine, that's the way things break down. However, most Americans aren't up for the Boogaloo version of Bush v. Gore. They'll back whoever's ahead at the end of election night- if the opposition is carrying through with their coup, they need to be crushed. No mercy.

One thing that always interested me about 2016 is why the election dragged on until the wee hours of the morning. My theory is that Hillary was desperate to grease the wheels in Michigan and Pennsylvania- but something went wrong. Maybe people were getting shot with boxes of ballots in their car. Maybe Trump lawyers were right on top of critical polling places. At that point, she had just enough Chardonnay to be truly insane in her anger, but not enough to be unconscious. She was ready to go all-in... but Obama talked her out of it. After all, they had the insurance policy. And that's the only reason she gave up that night.

ColoradoJim म्हणाले...

I wonder if the reason they are calling for massive mail in ballots without ANY safeguards is to try and eat their cake both ways. If ballot fraud push their people though, they will say “We won, deal with it”. If they fail through the mail fraud, they will shamelessly point to the lack of safeguards to claim that that Trump only won because of fraud. That has to be the reason for not conceding under any circumstances.

They really need to be put under bright lights and grilled constantly why they support no safeguards. There is zero reason for that except to enable cheating. As mentioned everyone uses an ID and are required to have one for many less important things than voting. Isn’t voting important enough to require high security?

Here's what I expect:

1:Thanks to Democrats doing a lot more mail in voting this time, I expect that Trump will be significantly ahead on Election Night
2: Trump will declare victory on Election night
3: Trump will announce that the Democrats are goign to try to steal the election by manufacturing "mailed in votes" until they have enough to steal it
4: Trump will announce the RNC & Trump campaign are sending vote monitors to every single ballot counting place. That they will be looking out for fraud, and they will be demanding that the vote counters do everything by the book
5: There will be lawsuits. There will be court orders. Every ballot from a. registered Democrat will be examined minutely, and challenged if there are any problems
6: There will be Republican protests every day demanding that the Democrats stop trying to steal the election

Remember Florida in 2000, when the Democrat vote counters in Miami-Dade County trying to move the vote "counting" to a room where they couldn't be monitored? Remember the "Brooks Brothers Riot"? That will be a polite tea party compared to GOP responses to shenanigans in 2020

7: Post election, President Trump will have no problem using force against any left-wing rioters and thugs who are trying to illegally steal a Federal election. Expect violent thugs to get shot

8: When all is said and done, Trump will be re-elected, and the republicans will control both the House and the Senate

All of the news about how Trump is doing is always about how he's doing with women, and always will be, and not only with Trump. That's the large irrational part of the electorate.

Trump's doing well because burning everything in sight and beating up people at random isn't playing well with women. Trump's working for the country's benefit doesn't figure in much because women know he's racist and sexist and homophobic, as the news clicks tell them. It's a fun narrative to live in, is why they click. Profitable.

And that's where the timeline diverges. The second Trump can claim victory, the gloves come off with BLM terrorists. Democrat states will be declared to be hosting insurrections. More than a few officers will object to Trump's views publicly. Those officers will be relieved of command permanently.

The military will roll over the insurrectionists' borders, and the local police will enthusiastically welcome them. Maybe the Dems will push through successful challenges through the corrupt courts before they hear the tank engines, but I doubt it. Hopefully it doesn't come down to saturation bombings of traitor cities, but let's face it: they have it coming.

Congress will object, briefly, but where on earth did you think the President was going to strike first?

1: Speaker of the House for the next term, not this term
2: Electors meet on the Monday after the second Wednesday in December, which is Dec 14. So every State has to have appointed its electors by then
3: If no candidate has 270+ electors, then it goes to the House for the President, and the Senate for the VP. Each State gets 1 vote. In the current House there are 26 GOP States, 23 Dem majority States, and 1 split. The Democrats are going to need a major jump to reverse that. It takes an absolute majority of States to chose a President, and absolute majority of Senators to chose the VP

But, my understanding is that all vote counting for the Electoral College ends by Dec 14.

bagoh20 म्हणाले...

When was the last time the Democrats simply accepted the result of a Presidential election they lost unless it was a complete blow out? I say they haven't done so even once in our lifetime. Luckily Republicans often win by large margins, but when it's close they simply do not honor the peaceful transfer of power. They are at their core lawless, dishonest, and bad losers. This must be a complete blowout to overcome the inevitable cheating, litigation, lies, and accusations they cannot resist deploying. Their last loser didn't even have the decency to address her supporters after losing. Then she blamed, sexism, patriarchy, dumb submissive women, the Russians, and some bad Chardonnay.

**************

If they're still counting votes 1/03/21, which is when a new Congress convenes by statute, why would Pelosi still be Speaker of the House? For that matter, what House?

All House members run for re-election every two years, so who's to say she would be re-elected to her own seat---OR that she would have enough fellow Congresscritters among the un-contested state contests to form a quorum to officially establish a new Session, let alone enough Dem seats to be remain Speaker?

It would be mighty suspicious if enough Dem states claimed that the ballots for Congressional offices were fully counted, but not the tally for POTUS on those same ballots.

But I suspect they will try.

The shocking thing isn't that high-level Democrats are thinking about this. The shocking thing is that they're saying it out loud.

@Greg The Class Traitor - One nitpick. If some states don't certify a slate of electors, it's an absolute majority of those electors that *are* certified, which could lead to all kinds of shenanigans.

I actually think both sides should take this approach. If we're going to have a hodgepodge of in-person, absentee, and mass-mailed mail-in ballots this year, I think we maximise legitimacy by letting both sides make all their arguments before the result is certified. Doesn't mean people will accept the outcome (any more than Democrats did in 2016), but I think more people will accept it than in the alternative scenario where one side concedes, but his furious partisans think there's a slew of unexplored claims of electoral fraud out there that would have changed the outcome.

Speaker Pelosi does not become POTUS under any circumstances. The states are responsible for getting their EV breakdown to the Senate by January 6. That's when the votes are open and counted. If some states are still counting and don't send in their EVs, and neither candidate gets an EV majority because of that, the election for POTUS goes to the House, one vote per state, the VP election goes to the senate, one vote per senator. The states that didn't send in their vote- too bad, so sad.

Who can the House vote for? Any one of top 3 candidates by EV. So unless there are faithless electors- Trump or Biden.

Two elections have gone to the House- 1800, 1824.

What would be interesting is if Biden drops dead before the EVs are counted- and he won. Dead people aren't eligible to be elected President. Unless there's at least one faithless elector, the only eligible candidate available to the House would be Trump. There would be much wailing and gnashing of teeth. Trump- POTUS, Kamala- VP, shut out of everything and kept in the dark.

Sadly, the whole thing is ripe for a brief Civil War.

Because one point source of failure is that the House gets to decide in teh case of disputes about election results.

And the Democrats have more seats that are "undisputed" than Republicans

So I can see the Pelosi House Democrats stealing control of the House by deciding each "controversy" in favor of the Democrat candidate.

And I can see Republicans reversing this by shooting enough House Democrats that the GOP ends up with a majority.

Note, not "House Republicans", just ordinary citizens not willing to see the Democrat destroy America.

The Democrats are fighting for vote fraud, burins our cities, and telling us they won;'t accept defeat

What that means is that we face no moral obligation to accept defeat, either.

Watch every bit of BLM and Antifa thuggery that happens between March 1, and Nov.3. Because we're watching. And we're noting what qualifies as "acceptable behavior".

Buring homes. Burning businesses. Extortion. Murder. Silencing any voices you disagree with.

I think a more likely scenario for an election crisis is the Democrats not accepting Trump winning in the electoral college while losing the popular vote. There was an article last week describing one of the simulations run by the Transition Integrity Project that pretty sounds exactly like something the Democrats will try to do in such a scenario.

Now, almost all of the mainstream media stories about these game scenarios were written describing Trump not conceding defeat, but you have to be seriously stupid to not realize the real danger is the Democrats not accepting defeat given their overwhelming domination of the media. In the one scenario where it was the Democrats not accepting an electoral college defeat, John Podesta playing Joe Biden chose to convince the Democratic governors of North Carolina, Wisconsin, and Michigan (in the scenario, Trump won those states again, but not Pennsylvania) to refuse to certify Trump's electoral slate from those states and certify the Democratic slate, which the Democratic House then accepted, but the Republican Senate did not. However, it is entirely possible the Democrats control both houses on January 6th- indeed, this is the most likely of the scenarios to play out.

Bob Boyd म्हणाले...

Hillary doesn't want any other Democrat to win. It makes her look bad. I think she's hoping to hurt Biden with this stuff. Will Biden be stupid enough not to denounce this strategy?

Hillary STILL hasn't conceded that she lost even after all these years. We all wish she would just go away. Maybe she NEEDS to be put in Gitmo (where she belongs, but she was protected) to shut her up.

In other words, she advises Democrats to disenfranchise every Trump voter through insurrection and ultimately armed revolution.

Good to know.

Democrats, as usual, are exactly what they accuse Republicans of being, times 100.

Am I supposed to believe there’s no such thing as vote fraud, after that statement? She just f*cking admitted that’s the plan.

Hillary is clear that should early “final” returns show Trump the winner, enough uncounted ballots will be discovered in the trunks of election officials cars to turn the tide.

"... I think this is going to drag out, and eventually I do believe he will win if we don't give an inch and if we are as focused ..."


What does this mean? That democrats will produce/'find' new votes and keep producing/'finding' votes after the election date until they win?

You may find the phrase "harking back" in the article to be amusing, Ann. The acronym HARK is a "questionable research practice[2] of Hypothesizing After the Results are Known", according to Wikipedia.

Hillary is the foremost practitioner, and her acolytes are the Democrats.

Mr. Wibble: "I expect that BLM / Antifa will stage armed seizures of polling places in red precincts on election day."

Only in blue states.

Hillary. Is there a more toxic political actor in all of American history?

How's Joe going to KNOW that he lost????????????????????????????????? He's is HIS world, not OURS.

DavidD म्हणाले...

We haven’t even started counting ballots yet and she’s already saying that this is going to drag out.

Hillary, you were supposed to wait a couple months to say this.

Jim at म्हणाले...

Why won’t that woman ever shut up?

On the contrary. I want that bitch running her mouth every chance she gets.

AlGore attempted to steal the election in 2000. Make no mistake, it was attempted theft, not a recount.

Joe Biden, who has dementia, will be elected only by massive mail vote fraud, which will likely include counting "late" ballots found weeks after election day, until enough are produced to put his vote count above Trumps in a few key states.

Hillary Clinton will never be President of the United States. Yay.
