Deranged Rhino Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) I know, it's Breitbart (which I don't like posting) But it's really the WaPo being quoted/used as a source. Joe's got no chance when this thing blows wide. He, and everyone in 44's orbit during his administration, will be radioactive. The same fate awaits those in the Senate and Congress running for POTUS or re-election who spent the past three years pushing a now debunked conspiracy theory like Harris, Swalwell, Warren.

dpberr Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Tusli Gabbard is the lone Democrat candidate that is growing on me. 21 hours ago, B-Man said: . You know who isn't in that picture? Tulsi Gabbard. She is IMO, legitimately the best candidate the Democrats have and she gets next to no exposure from their party. She's not a war hawk and pisses off her own party at the same rate she pisses off the Republicans. I think she's the most comprehensive threat to Trump because she has appeal to moderates in both parties. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's not a threat to beat Trump for dog catcher. She is being intentionally ignored by the media and the DNC. Her candidacy was DOA from its first week, when they found some nonsense to make her apologize for. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a good one of Pete's proposals: Electoral college: A national popular vote to replace the Electoral College Wouldn't we first need an Amendment to the Constitution in order to Amend the Constitution by national popular vote? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, can't be done at the federal level...but having each state decide to allocate its EC delegates to whoever wins the popular vote is a nice dodge.

I wonder which idea will get to 2/3 first -- this popular vote idea, or the "convention of states" that's been passed by 15 States so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd have 30 out of 33 States (there is NO crossover presently). Though the national popular vote wouldn't need 33 to effectively take effect, they just need to get to 270 electoral votes. I wonder if that would withstand a court challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'd have an interesting (and expedited) court fight if a candidate from the winning party (according to that state's ballot) won the state, but the state directed the electors to vote for the other candidate.
