    Nothing. It's a long elaborate troll. He's not even voting for Trump.

    For those on board Trump's Rigged Election Express, remember that states and localities control elections. (Why this is the case for POTUS is beyond me, but states' rights will never die no matter how badly the concept lost 150 years ago.) And of the 13 states defined as Battlegrounds by RCP, Republicans:
    * Hold total control (governor and both legislative houses) in seven.
    * Hold both legislative houses in 10.
    * Hold two of the three (governorship and the two legislative houses) in 12.

    So if there's going to be election fraud, the GOP is going to have the power to conduct it.

    Hmm. I can't fathom any reason why states control presidential election under the Constitution.

    Picture this:

    1) Dems take control of the Senate.

    2) POTUS election comes down to recount issues as in 2000;

    3) The Dems file for procedural delays, etc etc, and the case doesn't go to the Supreme Court until after Jan. 1

    4) the new Senate quickly confirms Merrick Garland, who gives Dems a 5-4 edge on the court. President Clinton is swiftly rubber stamped.

    Electoral College meets Dec. 19.

    Thus, under the Constitution: "If any State shall have provided ... for its final determination of ... the appointment of all or any of the electors of such State ... at least six days before the time fixed for the meeting of the electors, such determination ... shall be conclusive" it would need to be resolved by Dec. 13.

    Lighten up, man. There's nothing wrong with a little day-drinking on the weekends.

    What's wrong with right wingers that they are digging up a photo from February now?
