Another Dem calls for Electoral College to go rogue

A Democratic lawmaker is desperately lobbying the Electoral College to shun Donald Trump, and vote for Hillary Clinton — even though he conceded Monday that the Republican won the election “fair and square.”
The plea from Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.) comes a week before the Dec. 19 vote, which is expected to affirm the results of the Nov. 8 election, in which Trump beat Clinton with 306 Electoral College votes.
“We’re 5 wks from Inauguration & the President Elect is completely unhinged. The electoral college must do what it was designed for,” Himes wrote Sunday night on Twitter in response to Trump’s gripe that NBC “Nightly News” is “biased, inaccurate and bad, point after point.”

And these people actually get elected? No wonder this country was going down the shitter quick.

Is this what Hillary was referring to when she talked about undermining our democracy?

Unhinged? Trump?
The only unhinged folks are the lib whackjobs and RINOs who can't stand that their shoo-in candidate got shooed away and are calling for any and all means to overturn the results of a free and fair election.

Agree. The people have spoken and the EC has to abide by their wishes to MAGA.

"Unhinged" is everybody else like this guy. Trump is doing work.

Trump isn't doing anything different than what he did during the campaign. A lot of people don't like that, but he's certainly not "unhinged". It's just another emotive word the Dems use to stir up people to act against logic and reason.

I really hate to agree with you twice. I don't agree with Trump's cabinet picks, but he clearly isn't "unhinged." How can you say a candidate won the election fair and square and then say vote for the opponent? Wow - that is insane.

Yeah but he won.
They expect him to come left of center, be their friend, politically correct and implement their policies to heal this country.
I mean the Dems never lose in their eyes. Not their candidate? Who cares? Their policies are universal truths and the only way to conduct business in Washington.
They are shocked Trump isn't walking around to them with an Olive Branch.

And that same idiot wants to do anyway with the EC, yet claims the purpose of the EC is to stop people like Trump
Alexander Hamilton was ruined politically, and eventually killed in a duel, for interfering with the EC in 1800. And idiots like this use his federalist papers as support for that nonsense

Done did.
It stopped folks living in 10% of the United States from ruling over the other 90%.

Will be getting a lakehouse and sports car soon. Compliments of George Soro's.
The headlines should be that Soro's is being investigated.

He wants to see "unhinged"?? Let the electoral college flip and see the bloodshed that ensues.
