Trump to meet Michigan lawmakers in bid to overturn electoral defeat
Excerpted....
Nov 20 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump will meet with Republican leaders from Michigan at the White House on Friday as his campaign pursues an increasingly desperate bid to overturn the Nov. 3 election following a series of courtroom defeats.
The Trump campaign's latest strategy, as described by three people familiar with the plan, is to convince Republican-controlled legislatures in battleground states won by President-elect Joe Biden, such as Michigan, to set aside the results and determine Trump the winner.
"The entire election frankly in all the swing states should be overturned and the legislatures should make sure that the electors are selected for Trump," Sidney Powell, one of Trump's lawyers, told Fox Business Network on Thursday.
Back to me....
Some think that these antics are Trump's death rattle.
(I once naively posted that. But I've come to my senses.)
Clearly, The Donald is showing both his genius & his put
Ameristan first agenda.
How so, you ask?
Playing by the rules, & exploiting them in brilliant novel ways,
he's now showing us inherent flaws in the Electoral College.
The new one is more interesting & dangerous than the
occasional "faithless elector". We now see the faithless party
risk, ie, that if one party held enuf power in crucial states, they
could conspire to install an unelected President.
He must've realized this when he beat Hillary with a lower
popular vote count. This is how he's fixing that flaw, ie,
inspiring the country to switch to the popular vote.
He knows he won't win, but he's doing it for us.
For sooth, Donald Trump is God's gift to democracy,
although it took me awhile to realize this.
