    There is nothing sensible in what you have just said - that I can make out - seems like we are on two different pages here.

    At risk of what ?

    can't help you with that

    a President that goes too far

    we are not just talking about Trump, I think the Republicans in power will not allow it this time, but a future President, who knows - neither party should support this

    Republican in power today are afraid to speak up, but at least in the courts, they not playing along

    History sorts out the truth sooner or later.

    Exactly.

    Case in point, Trump's Landslide Defeat.

    Nah, they don't believe it themselves

    Trump hates the right people, and that is ALL that matters to a committed Trumper. They base the nation of America on the Master Race and whatever is good for that Race is good for America. Trump is the chosen leader of the Master Race and all must be sacrificed to benefit him since the leader is everything.

    We are not at risk of a President going to far - as there is little Trump can do. Biden will sit in the WH .. and there is nothing Trump can do to stop it.

    Trump lost fair and square but it wasn't a landslide. He almost won.

    Truth already came out. History sorting the truth does not help the delusionals with accepting it.

    That is certainly possible, even plausible from the cynical perspective. An examination of each government would be the only way to find the answer.

    The government/media complex does not always provide the same truth as history and historians.

    But are you concerned that this is the direction the Trump squad are even discussing? How do you feel about our democracy, that the leader of the country and his cronies are even mentioning this kind of action?

    Hillary was almost half as much ahead and lost. Maybe the popular vote should be all that matters, but it isn't.

    On top of which, when about 240 million Americans voted, 7 million isn't that much of an edge.

    In 2015 when the Trumpocity slithered down escalator a fair number of people mistook that guy for a businessman. What the newly evolving Trumpites did not realize or not care was that guy was a con man. Donnie conned too many people into believing that the "university" that shared its name and the vodka, steaks, ties, pies, was as phony as Trump New York deli style "Kosher" ham.

    First of all, if Trump got 70 million votes and Biden got 77 million, that doesn't add up to 240 million. Biden got TEN PERCENT more than Trump. That's what some call a "landslide" with some validity.

    Secondly, if you believe the popular vote is what matters, have you pressured your state to adopt The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact?

    The last that I heard the Trumpocity wants to include into the Military spending bill is a right to shut up social media sites if they fail to praise his sorry butt on a daily basis and twice on Sunday.

    Declaring martial law in order to overturn the results of an election would probably be the most straightforward and extreme example of treason our nation has ever known.

    Sorry. I shouldn't multitask when corresponding. That's absolutely true. I didn't mean to write that. Thanks for picking it up.

    It's not that great an edge. Again, Clinton had about half that as a lead and lost.

    I didn't say that. I said that maybe it is what should matter, but it isn't. I deliberately didn't take a position because for the point I'm making, it doesn't matter what the system should be.

    The best statistic available to the honest among us is that 161,000,000 people voted in the last general election.

    Any time.

    Sure it is!

    ...because of the crooked electoral college.

    But you can help change it. Don't you want the popular vote to be the law?
