How weird.
John doesn't want Biden nor Trump to be president next year.

He states he lives in Maryland, where all the electoral votes are going to go Biden, even though he wants a Conservative Republican other than trump.

But he's happy with the representative electoral college. States he may write in his Conservative Republican choice.

He says 'fortunately we have the electoral college system' and he's not being sarcastic.

Somebody explain that to me.

The system seems completely stupid to me, because Trump is going to pull Kansas no matter what.

John Bolton started his career working for Spirochete Agnew during the Nixon years. He's an accomplished liar who suckled at the government teat his whole life and he learned his craft from one of the scummiest liars in Washington. I wouldn't believe him if he said the sky was blue without checking it myself.

We had a guy like Spiro living with us in the swamp for a spell. He looked just like a Prussian hyena.

Unless something strange, often illegal, and totally unprecedented happens, all or nearly all the electors of the electoral college will vote for the certified election winners of their state.* I have no idea what Bolton is talking about either.


*in a few cases, by congressional district, not by state

There's the answer I was looking for. Don't have the time to watch Laura Ingram but I was sure she didn't look like that.

Conservative media is hazardous to your health in the same way the red pill is. The truth will set you free, but first it will make you sick.

The following is just a copied FB comment, but hard to beat as a concise description of how the conservative media ecosystem is functioning.

Quote:
Cynthia Wornom Tillson IMHO, Faux Fox "opinion-gators" are hysterically leading an emotional cult, promoting "shared superior beliefs" that keep followers feeling high, connected, and safe! Their daily doses of superiority rants, & gut-wrenching reality denials, act like a drug, there's no difference in effect. Followers can't question anything, it's all or nothing! That's cult power: in or out, live or die, all or nothing.

Opinions vary. That was a great ad-hominem rant, though.

And regarding CNN and MSNBC: Ditto.
