President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

How is the vote going today? Did the petitions pay off? Who is going to head Hillary's transition team?

 

Is there some ongoing debate about state boundaries that I've missed?

LOL. I swear, these articles are pathetic.

The electoral college is a source of serious debate — whether it should exist at all, and how we should draw the boundaries that decide how individual votes are pooled together, and therefore who wins. It might seem strange to leave so much up to the vagaries of cartographers and gerrymanders: By moving the boundary of a state or a district by a few miles, you can massively change election results.

 

I put $10 on Kasich this morning.

 

Jewish leaders in Richard Spencer’s home town targeted in posting on neo-Nazi website

In the post published Friday, which called the Jewish people a “vicious, evil race of hate-filled psychopaths,” Daily Stormer shared the names of the Whitefish activists, who are all women, and their photos, which were accompanied by sexist commentary and digitally altered with overlays of the Star of David. The post included the women’s phone numbers, Twitter handles and email addresses, plus the names and contact information for their husbands.

The post also shared the name, photo and Twitter account of one woman’s young son. ...

“Go choke on a shotgun and die,” read one message. “You would all be of greater worth to society as human fertilizer than as citizens.”

 

Love it. Four faithless Clinton electors in Washington state.

 

Let him have his own gun thugs. Maybe it will come back to bite him like it did Huey Long.

 

Shocking.

 

Hmmm ...

 

Perhaps an unfortunate abbreviation given some of the more common metaphors for Donald and his authoritarian proclivities...

 

It's over for Trump now:

Tom Arnold says he’s got recordings of Trump using racial slurs and calling son a ‘retard’

 

I guess at this point we're just establishing a timeline.

 

@lessig needs to return to IP law.
