It is kind of interesting if you take the time to look through your link.

It shows you that a Democratic lead country did not treat the working class very well Hence their vote for Trump. The highest income earners did well under Obama so they voted for Hillary.

Just another example of the Democratic party saying they are for the working class when in the end they only care about themselves and their money. (while wanting to spend everyone else's money to keep themselves in power)

At least this is another interpretation of Silvers "data".

If you want. I don't care.

I look more at content. Something many here avoid......... daily.....

It is probably fake news but, I just read an analysis that Hillary's popular vote total came from California. She could be president of California. I'm OK with that. Having lived there for two years I wouldn't care if all y'all formed your own private utopia.



"Popular vote TOTAL" .... ?! (No I think a few people in the other 49 states may have cast a vote or 2 for her also)

So what? Californians are Americans too. This just means Dems are doing a better campaigning job there than anyone else.

The point is the electoral system is set up to level out the wishes of the states, not of individuals. So in this case, it worked as intended by not letting a huge upset in a single highly populated state reverse the wishes of the rest of the country. A huge upset in a state like Utah just wouldn't have the same effect would it?

Even if it gives us a scary orange faced creepwad.

another thing to give us hope that is designed in - balance of powers

Actually it shows that the less educated you are, the more likely you are to vote for Trump.

No wonder conservatives dislike education so much in the age of Trump. Ignorance is their strongest ally.

And its a classic move according to "The Dictator's Handbook." Keep the populace just educated enough for your purposes and no more.

I have to wonder about this, given the number of times you've posted a headline to support your argument - and then the article it's attached to contradicts your claim.



It is all about spin Bill. You of all people here should know this seeing how good you are at it.

A) It wasn't a huge upset. What about it was an upset?

B) The current system let 'huge upsets' in 2 or 3 lowly populated states reverse the wishes of the country.

C) What does it matter that California is one state? Does that make the people there more homogenous than the people of North and South Dakota? Does it make San Fransiscans indistinguishable from Los Angelinos from Newellites? If California was, today, split into 3 states of North, South and Central Cali and each of them had 22 electoral votes would you be less bothered about how much influence they had on the next election?
Do you want to have an ideagasm?

People have wishes. States are inanimate entities that have no more consciousness than rocks or rivers.

Quoting straight from that report:

Quote

"Thus, while the conclusions in the report are all reflected in the classified assessment, the declassified report does not and cannot include the full supporting information, including specific intelligence and
sources and methods."



Lol...I'm grabbing some more popcorn.

This world is full of gullible idiots, which this report is designed for. Them thinking they can take hackers on with this incompetence is Hillary'ous...

:D

Not that there was necessarily any hacking involved, just that hackers are geeks when it comes to methodology so many experts will analyze this and pick it to pieces.

Read between the lines folks, this report puts the mock in Operation Mockingbird.

Fortunately Russia is showing restraint, while the war hawks push for more profit.

The party in the Kremlin might be a bigger and better affair than DJT's inauguration.



The glee I have since Hillary was not elected is magnified by at least 10 by watching posters on this site.

Thank you:)

No comrade Rush, it is you who lost it several months ago.

In your absolute hate for Hillary (see you post two back from this), you've lost the ability to tell the difference between winning over her and handing over the US to a puppet of Russia.

A number of us have been talking about that very point for months while you've somehow completely ignored it. All you've ever cared about in this entire election cycle was "winning" over Hillary.

Okay, battle won, but you've lost the country.

Proud of yourself?

Let me try this another way.

Rush, what action by Trump could convince you the US has significantly changed? Not a minor change like the previous back and forth, give and take between the Bush 41, Clinton, Bush 43, Obama, but something fundamentally different which attacks the core beliefs of the US?

Where is your line (just for future reference)?

Fundamental changes/abuses of the US Constitution by Executive Order?
