He'd only be able to get the elections cancelled in red states, because there are no federal elections. The election for president, while nationwide, consists of 50 state elections which no one in Washington has any control over.

The blue states would all hold their elections. If no presidential candidates got 270 electoral votes out of that, it would go to the House to decide. Who has the House these days?

Edit: Oops. This was supposed to go to CatBorg's non-comment. I'm blaming the misplacement of this non-comment on the weather.

They'll have to keep him tied in a chair with no access to Twitter from Election Day to Inauguration Day. Hell, they shouldn't even allow Melania to decorate the WH that Christmas.

I bet he doesn't realize that the Secret Service, despite swearing oaths to protect him with their lives, really loathe him because of the way he treats them.

Think the WH staff has told him yet that the Obamas were nominated for an Oscar?

It is if you're conservative.

That oath is to the office, not the man.

Once he's lost, he's just another security threat, and will be treated appropriately.

Which IMHO might be "shot while resisting arrest," but for the martyr pose the base loves striking.

Why is everyone with a different opinion "Russian"? Russia did not stop Hillary from campaigning in swing states.

Or did they? Is she a secret "Russian asset" who intentionally elevated tRump then intentionally lost to him?

Toomuch cracked the case!

Inherent in capitalism is competition. Maybe you missed that the losers have been ranting against Russia for years now. In fact, when anyone disagrees, it's the go-to attack line for those who don't remember the past 40 years.

It's time to start PROVING that the USA is better. A living wage for all who work, healthcare for all and expanding public education would be a start.

"Respect for rules" when our capitalist tRump assassinates foreigners and lies about "imminent attacks"? Respect for rules when denying foreigners medicine and food with inhumane sanctions?

Let's make capitalism better with: a living wage, healthcare for all and expanding public education. Maybe then, we can start bragging about the system that results in three people owning more than half the nation.

But, but, WH Christmas desecration’s are Melania’s favorite part of being First Lady.

They also have merch to peddle with Bernie's face on it, so there goes your dumb argument about bias. While the non-commenters here do sometimes lean anti-Bernie, I have never seen any such bias from the writers of the articles. And just to clarify, I voted for Bernie in the 2016 primary.

You really are stupid.

I don't think it's a conservative, I think it's the much-maligned "Bernie Bro" appearing in the wild.
