Does Trump want to get rid of our Democracy?

[2Timothy2:15]

four words: doesn't change the fact.
tulc(suspects that's why President Trump supporters are still obsessing over Sec Clinton: she CLEARLY was the candidate the majority of Americans wanted)

Doesn't change the fact the system worked as designed. That is unless the desire is to change the CONSTITUTION, hmmm seems one side is more into that than the other.

...that's debatable but it does sure seem to work out for the Republican Party.

That is unless the desire is to change the CONSTITUTION, hmmm seems one side is more into that than the other.

...who said anything about changing the Constitution? Oh! Right, that was President Trump.
Can Trump end birthright citizenship by executive order?
tulc(just thought that should be pointed out)

 

[tulc]

If you have a problem with the Constitution, get it amended.

I agree. But this particular aspect Electoral College is in need more of a "tweak" rather then an "Amendment". Changing it from "winner takes all" to making it a percentage of the vote instead would (IMHO) make it more representative of the voters in America.
tulc(just a suggestion)

Where as Hillary wants to change the country into (a communist?) one that only allows for democratic views and processes. AKA "Only think what we tell you! Only do what we tell you! Say what we tell you!". I'd rather have Trump, as incompetent as he is.

Sounds like Trump you're describing, he's the one who's in favor of the Communist dictators.

Um, Obama set up an office down the street in DC day one of Trumps Presidency.

Obama's Washington Office After He Leaves the White House - Barack Obama's Post-Presidency Offices
So what? An ex-president having an office in DC?

Or did you not know that? Actually many sitting Presidents campaign on the behalf of their party during mid terms, this is totally normal.

Yes, having a DC office after serving their term is quite normal

Obama campaigning in mid terms
Not the extent that Trump has.
Barack Obama's final midterm rally highlights declining popularity

Bush campaigning mid terms
On Campaign Trail, Bush Raises Money for Midterm Races
Yes, but again not to the extent that Trump has. Haven't tweeted either.

It is a long standing practice for sitting Presidents to campaigning mid terms. The question is why did you not know this and what else are you wrong about?

Yes. But Trump's taken it to the extreme.

 

[2Timothy2:15]

.that's debatable but it does sure seem to work out for the Republican Party.

Only five US presidents in history have been elected despite losing the popular vote: John Quincy Adams in 1824, Rutherford Hayes in 1876, Benjamin Harrison in 1888, George W. Bush in 2000 and Donald Trump this November.

Fact check
John Adams - Democrat

I am not a republican, I am rubber so that bounces off me and sticks to you

 

[2Timothy2:15]

Yes. But Trump's taken it to the extreme.

Umm facts? Examples? Based on what? Your opinion? That is not how things work.

uhmmm...John Adams was a "Democratic-Republican Party" member.
in case you were curious:
Democratic-Republican Party - Wikipedia
tulc(is curious about which Party those other 4 were members of?)

IIRC, the Constitution give the states the authority to award their electoral votes any way they wish.

 

[tulc]

man...I was a little confused there for a second...I thought "Why was 2Timothy2:15 replying to himself, 2tim_215?" Then I saw the difference...
tulc(is obviously in need of more coffee)

 

[tulc]

IIRC, the Constitution give the states the authority to award their electoral votes any way they wish.

That would be why I said it was more of a "tweak" not an Amendment.
tulc(remembers this was a big discussion in 2016)

 

[cow451]

Ridiculous.

No, his name is Donald. Not Ridiculous. That’s just a nickname an ex inappropriate content actress gave him.

 

[SavedByGrace3]

Yeah, it's not like almost 3,000,000 more Americans wanted her to be President then wanted him.
tulc(will point out as often as needed)

They and more were all illegal alien, illegal votes, Zobies (dead people), and people voting more than once.
There is factual evidence that in many blue counties, there were more votes than registered voters.
Cute.
Trump won... get over it.

You would still have to convince the populace to support the idea at state or federal levels.

I am surprised the activist living document supreme court did not throw out the constitution. I imagine they would have if they could.

True. That was very unkind. Me. Trump favors all dictators equally.

Zobies? The voting dead? UFO voters?

They can toss the Constitution now. Got a clear majority now that the Keganator has arrived.

If the liberals could figure out how to get Aliens to exit their UFOs and vote... they would. And they would be illegal Aliens.

Ummm...you may not have noticed, but that’s exactly what you got...! Hillary actually lost about 2 years ago now....

Oh boy.....
