    Along these same lines I read that outside the NYC metro area Hillary won outstate New York by less than 1,000 votes. Of course she won 82% of the metro votes.

    He won 2008 fair and square ... 2012 is a different story, and if you were truthful you'd admit that Clinton lied her rear-end off about Benghazi to save the election for her boss. History may one day show this little chink in his armor, but every American who can read knows he cheated to win 2012 by covering up Benghazi.

    Had the truth about Benghazi been revealed, he would have lost to Romney. No Ruskies interferring, just the DNC making sure their man got his second term.

    You may kick and hollar all the way to the doctors office, ctb, but, you know Benghazi would have been the nail in his coffin, just like all the wiki-leaks were nails in Hillaries pine box.

    Selah! Shalom!!!

    I don't know how many or how few faithless electors will defect to Hillary. But I have confidence their effort will come up short.

    Who knows -- there may be some faithless electors who are supposed to go "with her" and yet
    may switch to Trump out of spite. That's something the Dems may not have considered.

    Would this not be absolutely un-nerving to the left, if Trump ended with, say 320 EV rather than his present 306??????!!!!!
    Pure joy to see the libs virtually eat each other alive for trying to subvert the normal process!!! ⛈

    Popular vote was never meant to elect the President. The States elect the President. If it was strictly by popular vote, then a few highly populated urban centers would dictate everything to the rest of the country. We are a constitutional republic and I am glad we don't have that kind of mob rule here.

    Well, Jill Stein was an embarrassment to them when Trump actually GAINED votes from the Wisconsin recount.

    How quickly she disappeared when the Michigan and Pennsylvania "Hot Potatoes" were thrown back into her lap.

    Couldn't they select Pense instead of Trump.....honestly I have no confidence in the Donald. His VP is much more fit to be President. I think most would agree with that!

    But given the unlikely scenario.....if it was to happen & you were in a position to sanction just who would be POTUS, would you seriously choose Trump over Pense? If so, please explain.

    you do know of course guys that Trump is a Manhattanite. Are you implying his own neighbors think he is the wrong choice for President?

    Yes, yes I am. Especially when you consider that Mitt Romney also got 18% of the NY metro vote in 2012, same as Trump got this year. In other words, they didn't like Trump any better than they liked outsider Romney.

    Maybe he (Trump) can hold his next rally in NYC.....may I suggest Madison Square Garden for the venue. Perhaps then he could make friends :rolleyes: with his fellow New Yorka's (and upset Mayor Deblouseo) for screwing up traffic. :Biggrin

    Now I take subways & trains so I could avoid (somewhat) the tumult.:Thumbsup
