DONALD J. TRUMP SAILS to VICTORY in the ELECT'RAL COLLEGE, DESPITE IDIOTIC PROTESTORS

WASHINGTON (AP) — There were many protesters but few faithless electors as Donald Trump won the Electoral College vote Monday — ensuring he will become America's 45th president.
An effort by anti-Trump forces to persuade Republican electors to abandon the president-elect came to practically nothing and the process unfolded largely according to its traditions. Trump's polarizing victory Nov. 8 and the fact Democrat Hillary Clinton had won the national popular vote had stirred an intense lobbying effort, but to no avail.
Even one of Trump's fiercest Republican rivals, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, said it was time to get behind the president-elect.
"We want unity, we want love," Kasich said as Ohio's electors voted to back Trump at a statehouse ceremony. Kasich refused to endorse or even vote for Trump in the election.
With Hawaii still to vote, Trump had 304 votes and Clinton had 224. It takes 270 Electoral College votes to win the presidency. Texas put Trump over the top, despite two Republican electors casting protest votes.
Befitting an election filled with acrimony, thousands of protesters converged on state capitols across the country Monday, urging Republican electors to abandon their party's winning candidate.
More than 200 demonstrators braved freezing temperatures at Pennsylvania's capitol, chanting, "No Trump, no KKK, no fascist USA!" and "No treason, no Trump!"
In Madison, Wisconsin, protesters shouted, cried and sang "Silent Night." In Augusta, Maine, they banged on drums and held signs that said, "Don't let Putin Pick Our President," referring to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Despite the noise outside state Capitols, inside, the voting went pretty much as planned.
In Nashville, Tennessee, one audience member tried to read out some Scripture before the ballots were cast, but was told he could not speak.
"We certainly appreciate the Scripture," State Election Coordinator Mark Goins said from the podium. "The answer is no."
With all Republican states reporting, Trump lost only the two electors in Texas. One voted for Kasich, the Ohio governor; the other voted for former Texas Rep. Ron Paul.
Clinton lost four electors in Washington state — three voted for former Secretary of State Colin Powell and one voted for Native American tribal leader Faith Spotted Eagle.
Several Democratic electors in other states tried to vote for protest candidates but they either changed their votes to Clinton or were replaced.
The Electoral College has 538 members, with the number allocated to each state based on how many representatives it has in the House plus one for each senator. The District of Columbia gets three, despite the fact that the home to Congress has no vote in Congress.
Republican electors were deluged with emails, phone calls and letters urging them not to support Trump. Many of the emails are part of coordinated campaigns.
In Baton Rouge, Louisiana, elector Charlie Buckels reached out to Trump's opponents after the New York businessman got all of the state's eight votes.
"For those of you who wished it had gone another way, I thank you for being here," said Buckels, the state GOP finance chairman. "I thank you for your passion for our country."
There is no constitutional provision or federal law that requires electors to vote for the candidate who won their state — though some states require their electors to vote for the winning candidate.
Those laws, however, are rarely tested. More than 99 percent of electors through U.S. history have voted for the candidate who won their state. Of those who refused, none has ever been prosecuted, according to the National Archives.
Some Democrats have argued that the Electoral College is undemocratic because it gives more weight to less populated states. That is how Clinton, who got more than 2.8 million more votes nationwide, lost the election to Trump.
Some have also tried to dissuade Trump voters by arguing that he is unsuited to the job. Others cite the CIA's assessment that Russia engaged in computer hacking to sway the election in favor of the Republican.
"When the founders of our country created (the Electoral College) 200-plus years ago, they didn't have confidence in the average white man who had property, because that's who got to vote," said Shawn Terris, a Democratic elector from Ventura, California. "It just seems so undemocratic to me that people other than the voters get to choose who leads the country."
A joint session of Congress is scheduled for Jan. 6 to certify the results of the Electoral College vote, with Vice President Joe Biden presiding as president of the Senate. Once the result is certified, the winner — almost certainly Trump — will be sworn in on Jan. 20.

  1. So, it's settled.

    But we can't expect these protestors to sit down and shut up. They'll be yapping all the way up to the next election. I can speak only for myself: I will studiously ignore them.

    1. That exactly whatI plan to do, AOW –– studiously ignore them. They are such fools anyway, they are not worth even a moment of our precious time.

    2. Apparently there is a recent diagnosis for the psychological mental being observed following the recent election of Donald J. Trump to be the President of the United States of America.It's been identified as Trump Acceptance Resistance Disorder—or T.A.R.D.

      T.A.R.D>
      Is T.A.R.D. even real?

      You may be wondering right now if this form of dissociative identity disorder is even real. Trust us, you’re not in this alone. After all, understanding and absorbing the idea of the development of multiple personalities is difficult, even for highly trained experts.

      The diagnosis of TARD itself remains controversial, especially among mass media and mental health professionals, with most experts believing that it is really an “offshoot” phenomenon of another psychiatric problem (getting trophies for losing sports during childhood and smiley faces for failing tests).

      Look for these typical signs and symptoms of TARD: Trump Acceptance Resistance Disorder

      How much fluoridated water did you drink during the eight-year Obama tyranny? How many flu shots did you get? Did you eat genetically mutated Frankenfood (GMO) daily? According to the expert diagnosis from the kind folks at Disclose TV, people with TARD are characterized by a “persistent unwillingness to accept that Donald Trump is going to Make America Great Again. Individual sufferers often display signs of paranoia and delusion; in acute cases psychotic episodes have been observed. Trump Acceptance Resistance Disorder is different from being upset about the results of the 2016 presidential election.”

      In fact, people with TARD are unable to accept reality, despite irrefutable evidence, and exhibit most, if not all, of the following symptoms:

      – Telling others they are moving to Canada

      – Fixated on fantasies about the Electoral College

      – Protesting an election no credible source contests the outcome of

      – Exclamations that “Someone” should do “Something!”

      – Acute change in demeanor from pompous and arrogant to fearful and combative

      – Claim that anyone who disagrees with them is some combination of racist, sexist, bigoted, homophobic and actually some sort of Hitler persona."

    4. More from the above article:

      "Understanding and combating TARD

      Trump Acceptance Resistance Disorder was directly caused by the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States of America. Thanks to mass media in the form of mentally disabled television, newspapers (dumbed down to 7th grade reading level for the sheeple) and online propaganda like CNN, the Washington Post and the Boston Globe, everyone absolutely knew without a shadow of a doubt that Hitlery would win the election. Every talk show exclaimed this hardened fact for months leading up to November 8th. Every single “libtard” was prepared with party favors ready to toast their criminal parasite of a candidate who promised them more enslavement, toxic food, toxic medicine and free stuff for not working.

      Currently, in-depth research is ongoing, but TARD appears to correlate closely with the following behavioral and environmental factors:

      – Membership in the Democratic party

      – Identifying as a feminist

      – Currently enrolled in college

      – Living in a densely populated metropolitan area

      – Massive student debt

      – Spotty or non-existent work history

      – Hipsterism

      Also, according to Disclose TV, the diagnosis of TARD is fairly straightforward. Simply ask the patient if Donald Trump is going to be the next president of the United States of America. Most patients quickly become agitated and most will begin to ramble incoherently, often displaying three or more of the symptoms within a short period of time. The only known treatment for TARD is to get the victim off toxic food, toxic tap water and toxic medicine, and then apply TRUMP adhesives (t-shirts, hats, pins and bumper stickers) to their person in some permanent fashion (using a staple gun or duct tape is preferred).

      Patients with TARD are dangerous in large groups, like cows that could trample any resistance to their “charge.” Their crybaby “herd” mentality is much like that of vaccine-induced paranoia, where they believe in safety in TARD numbers.

      If you have a friend, neighbor, coworker or loved one suffering from TARD, urge them to seek treatment."

    5. All that could be summed up as SPOILED BRAT PERSONALITY DISORDER, Waylon.

      This happens to people who were so over-protected and overindulged as children they developed a totally unrealistic outlook on life –– namely their view of themselves as The Center of the Universe to Whom All Lesser Beings Must Bow ought never to be challenged.

      Making an intimate acquaintance with Kipling's charming Just So Story THE BUTTERFLY THAT STAMPED might do them a world of good.

      Those poor souls who've been encouraged to believe that incessant bitching, moaning, whining, fist banging, and bawling put you on the express route to getting what you want, are doomed to a life of misery –– and doomed to making everyone around them even more miserable than they, if such be possible. ;-)

      MERRY CHRISTMAS!

  2. I tend to see it as another hurdle crossed on the road to what the American electorate strongly stated on election day. It's unbelieveable the depth of rancor and outright hatred displayed by those that feel that their losing candidate lost for some other reason than being flatly rejected by the voters. It appears they'll go to no limited end to show their true ugly and evil nature.

    I actually thought there might have been some large event perpetrated today with all the reported threats being made to those electors of the electoral college. With the invention of "fake news" by the very institutions that faked the story of Trump being blocked on every road to the magical number to electoral votes to gain the Presidency it's obvious that they invention of "fake news" is only a tool to be used to undermine the most disgusting revelations coming to light about the about despicable crimes committed by the Clinton team and their despicable upper level criminals.

    The Satanic child molesting pedophiles have been spoken about before but not on such a broad platform as a Federal election and entering into the final actions evident today. That may just be the tip of the ice berg in the most corrupt American administration in the history of the country.

    Coming to light again recently and this time proven by outside experts on falsifying documents—the current President Barrack Obama indeed had submitted an altered document as his Hawaiian birth certificate. Where will this go with a phony and fraud sitting as the President of the United States for the last eight years? That may be one of the largest crimes and scams ever perpetrated on the country and the world.

    Worse is the war mongering and military build up on the borders of Russia, allegedly the largest military build up there since the Nazi invasion of 1941. And this being led by the war mongers of the lame duck President. And this should underline the phoniness of the claims of Putin and Russia "Interfering" in the of Donald Trump. The problem here is what happens if an "event" occurs over there before Trump is sworn in as the next and rightful President.

    That doesn't sound so jolly to me.

    Merry Christmas anyway!

      "Judgment" is usually the wrong word when it comes to evaluating others based on appearances alone.

      What I believe you mean is that intelligent criticism based on the quality of the new president's accomplishments should be forthcoming only after we've given him time to prove himself in performance of his duties as president.

  12. As if that needed to be said!!!

    Look, there are 2 separate questions here.

    Did Russian hackers (or hackers of any nationality for that matter) try to influence the outcome of the 2016 Presidential Election. I would be shocked if they didn’t try. I’d be equally shocked if our election officials were so inept that they would allow such a hack to go unreported. While there is some truth to not wanting to reveal that you’ve been breached; there is zero chance that a breach would be kept under wraps.

    Second question is this:

    I can tell you that if you think that Hillary ran a good campaign you’re wearing blinders.

    She lost because Trump ran the better campaign in 2016 and she lost in 2008 because Obama ran a better campaign then too as well. SHE IS A DISAPPOINTING CAMPAIGNER!!!! Some people got it and some people don’t. Whatever the secret sauce is that makes one pull a lever next to her name…she ain’t got it. Further evidence of this all-too-clear-fact are the states that Trump won. He won Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Now, if he had won one of these states and lost the EV…someone like me would have said, “Hmm…that’s interesting.” Only because he won all 3 and won the EV do some folks like me (liberals) want to raise questions. To take this stance wounds your credibility. In the first place…One would have to wonder why the hackers spared Virginia—a very contentious state to be sure. Were they feeling generous? Secondly, the states that Mr. Trump did win are historically Blue states with solid governmental infrastructures. Are sensible persons to believe that the elections officials in 3 states have suddenly been retarded to the point where a hack would not be noticed…or reported…by anyone in that hierarchy of the group?

    What a difference a day makes. Donald Trump, after officially claiming the White House, did something Barack Obama never did in 8 years. And the whole world is cheering.

    After dual Islamic terror attacks hit yesterday, the execution of the Russian Ambassador to Turkey, Andrey Karlov and the slaughter of innocent Germans, Donald Trump first took time to offer his condolences.

    “Today we offer our condolences to the family and loved ones of Russian Ambassador to Turkey Andrey Karlov, who was assassinated by a radical Islamic terrorist. The murder of an ambassador is a violation of all rules of civilized order and must be universally condemned,”

    Then he dropped the hammer, directly threatening Islamic radicals,

    “Isis and other Islamist terrorists continually slaughter Christians in their communities and places of worship as part of their global jihad. These terrorists and their regional and worldwide networks must be eradicated from the face of the Earth – a mission we will carry out with all freedom-loving partners,”

    Damn right we will.

    Thank you Donald Trump for finally standing up to these scumbags. The days of living in fear from radical Islam are over. We will hunt them down and take them out. Which we would have done long ago, but for our failed weak leaders.

    We have a strong leader now. Actually the world has a strong leader now. And every single human being will be better off for it. Weakness is contagious, spreads like a cancer. It must be eradicated like Islamic radicals..

    Barack Obama can’t get anything right. He leaves office a colossal failure, that is beyond argument, but Americans had hoped he would at least honor is final important promise: to guarantee a “smooth and efficient” transition of power to Trump.

    But we were wrong. Obama has refused to follow this sacred American tradition, one that all past Presidents have undertaken as a solemn duty for the good of the nation. Instead, Obama has gone out of his way to make Trump’s transition as rocky as possible.

    Obama’s bitterness at Hillary’s loss and his anger at Trump’s vow to undo Obama’s failed legacy exploded in public recently. Josh Earnest, Obama’s press secretary, accused Trump (without any proof) for four consecutive days of knowing and encouraging Russian meddling in our election.

      "He leaves office a colossal failure"

      He's actually pretty popular. Well-liked. Congress is hated. Republicans would be a minority were it not for the electoral college, the Senate system, and gerrymandering. They represent fewer Americans than Democrats. And Obama inherited, from the Republicans, lest we so soon forget, a far worse situation than Trump will inherit!

      Well, that's because he had to know. Trump received briefings on the subject.

    3. Jersey, popularity is hardly the equivalent of success.

      Oscar Wilde said, "Whatever is popular is wrong." Sadly, I tend to agree.

      Also, it might do some good to remind ourselves that "The great are rarely famous, and the famous are rarely great."

      Our sources of information are so horribly tainted by chicanery stemming from raw partisanship I believe it wise to doubt WHATEVER emanates from our contemporary version of Orwell's "Ministry of Truth."

      Because they suit your feelings and basic assumptions I think you may blithely accept whatever Talking Points the DNC metes out and distributes through the enemedia.

      For very similar reasons I tend to reject then utterly.

      Only TIME will tell whether Mr. Trump will be a good president or not. As I keep saying, I think it wise to give him at least six months to prove himself one way or the other.

    4. Well, with Obama, I think he'll be remembered as a pretty good statesman, not a very good parliamentarian, handled the recession pretty well, but never able to do anything big to change the direction of the country.

  20. WITHOUT FURTHER ADO, HERE ARE THE MOST MORTIFYING MOMENTS OF 2016.

    After Donald Trump’s underdog but triumphant victory, many in the media looked for scapegoats. But Comedy Central’s Alec Baldass, Samantha Bee were the best — blaming angey Rich White people for “ruining” America.

    Hillary notoriously avoided direct questions from the press all year. So when Lester Holt became one of the few to somehow score a sit down with Mrs. Clinton, his softballs-only interview was journalistically humiliating.

    Cuba’s long time dictator expired this year, and many in America’s media … And America mourned..... NOT..

    Perhaps not historically significant, but a particularly comical case of media malpractice came when an enchanted Andrea Mitchell breathlessly recapped the “magical” evening she was having at a Hillary rally.

    Over on PBS, David Brooks and David Corn somehow connected the dots between Ted Cruz and Satan.

    After the devastating mass slaughter in Orlando, the media embraced its unfortunate habit of speculating where things went wrong — looking everywhere, it seemed, besides Islamic terrorism.

    After another tragedy — this time an alligator snatching a toddler from a Disney World beachfront — CNN’s Brooke Baldwin thankfully had the presence of mind to ask a local animal expert … what the alligator was thinking.

    On MSNBC, the now-canceled Melissa Harris Perry worried that Flint, Mich., might become Obama’s … Fugitive Slave Act?

    After Orlando, many progressive congressmen staged a sit-in on the floor of the House of Representatives. The media, you might be unsurprised to discover, went absolutely bananas with delight.

    And fro the next 4 to 8 years we are going to be hearing that “Hillary won the Popular vote”

    For people that want to be left alone you Liberals, Progressives, and Dimocrats, sure like to control other peoples lives

    If there was one thing the media was absolutely sure of in 2016, and what the “Polls Said’ it was … Hillary Clinton’s inevitable landslide victory. Whoops that didn’t work, did it!.

  22. We sucked it up like we did for the last 8 years, but you have to remember these factions had 8 years of socialist movement, of tearing down our morals and tearing our religions apart, and they were so close to destroying the whole US that they could taste it! Now they can't and won't accept that the country is going to go back to democracy and capitalism -- the greatest evils of the world in their minds. They want anarchy, an end to laws, or at the very least new laws that force you to be as immoral as they are and recognizes their debauchery as the new norm. It's like the fall of Rome or the Greeks –. Hell they even are boycotting children who were to sing the National Anthem at Donald Trumps Inauguration.
    New documents have just been uncovered that show how she lied and turned her daughters into “senior staff” so that they could collect taxpayer dollars.

    The taxpayer-funded lavish vacations taken by the Obama family are no secret by now. They went on trips around the globe, costing taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars. But a document from one of their recent trips showed something interesting. It was an Air Force flight passenger manifest for another expensive trip, which included days of sightseeing and a safari. But on the passenger manifest, Michelle listed her daughters, Sasha and Malia, as “senior staff”. By listing them as senior staff on a diplomatic trip, the two girls could have been paid a daily stipend, on top of the taxpayer-funded flight, lodging, meals, and activities.

    As if that wasn’t enough, Michelle Obama also took her mother, Marian Robinson, along with her niece and nephew, Leslie and Avery Robinson, on the taxpayer-funded trip. She also brought her makeup artist, Carl Ray, and a hairstylist, Johnny Wright, who were both listed as “guests.

    These people have no respect for the rule of law -- they have millions and all they can think of is how to cheat and get more. The funny thing is if they would have just shut up a few years ago and disappeared from the Radar they might have been forgotten by now but Hillary is so power hungry she took the whole Democraptic party down with her because now everyone knows how rotten to the Core the DNC Is!

  23. Do you wanna know how these whiny Liberals deal with Losing??
    When they lose, they stamp their feet, hold their breath, and kick and scream bloody murder. They Protest by burning down buildings, turning over Police cars, vandalizing and pilfering stores, and to tell you the truth, I’m already so sick of listening to liberals whine about Trump that I’m tempted to throw on a “Make America Great Again” Hat for no other reason than just to piss them off.
    You’re upset about Trump winning? Well, guess what? Us Conservatives were upset about Obama winning, and then winning again! So, Welcome to the Party, Pal. BUT, we didn’t do ANY over the nasty things that I’ve listed above!

    Oh, but liberals are special snowflakes whose feelings are more important than those of regular people. They need safe spaces, with Play Doh, and Puzzles, Blankies and Pacifiers to cope with trauma. They quote stupid people like George Takei, and Alac Baldwin, Martin Sheen, and Whoopy Goldberg, as if these Nut-Jobs were Genuses’s insteas of the Idiots that they are.
    They howl with rage, they threaten the victors with death. This is what they do. This is what spoiled brat children do when they don't get what they want.

    And these are the people who think they and they alone know how best to govern our country, to allocate our nation's precious resources to the benefit of the country on the aggregate?

    I wouldn't trust a woman like Joy Behar or her ilk to flip burgers at McDonald's. That would take responsibility, a work ethic, and a certain level of sanity. Imagine the assistant manager at Micky D's telling this stupid woman that she had to close, when she wanted to go hang out with her loser friends. She would erupt like a liberal volcano. These yelling maniacs will accept no less than an Idiot like Hillary Clinton or that other Idiot Pocahontas as their Leader. (My apologies to McDonalds).

    The conservative ethos of this country is now the 'chi' of the country's feng shui in all three branches of government at the national level for the next two years at a minimum, and very probably the next four years. Stamp your feet, yell and cry all you want, Donald Trump is the president for at least the next four years, and in all likelihood the next 8 years.

    Get over it, you pathetic whiny losers. You had your way for the last 8 years (or the last 24 years, depending on your point of view), just savor the memories of those years, because they will be fading from the public scene to just a distant memory in a New York minute.

    There's a new sheriff in town. So shut up and get out of the way

      And may you one day learn also to benefit from Shakespeare's sage advice when he said, "BREVITY is the SOUL of WIT."

      MERRY CHRISTMAS!

    2. WOW! Mister Know It All, that was some remarkable rant.

  24. This may be slightly off topic since Rudy Giuliani, though one of the interviewees for a cabinet position was not selected and he wasn't mentioned above either. But I find this truly significant—and apparently it won't be exposed much in the media either.

    It seems like Mr. Giuliani has repented and seen the light in a true 'come to Jesus moment'. In an official statement released December 20, 2016 Mr' Giuliani has written:

    https://steemit.com/pizzagate/@carlitashaw/pizzagate-is-real-not-fake-former-new-york-mayor-and-lawyer-rudolph-giuliani-just-blew-the-whistle-on-pizzagate

    He asserts that Pizza Gate is real and he knew about this atrocious criminality years ago and had to go-along-to-get-along in New York politics. And apparently he won't be seen on television much saying his recent booking to appear on FoxNews has been cancelled. Finally he asserts that those who believe the "official" story of 0/11 have been duped.

    Rudy just rose in my eyes to the level of a hero speaking out about this. I had thought he was hiding the truth on the other side previously. And talk like this will surely be signing a death warrant...and it sounds like he knows this.

    1. I guess you have decide for yourself on this. Snopes says it's false. If Giuliani doesn't appear on the New York television stations from now on and dies suddenly, then that will be the only way to confirm the story was true.
