    I read it and I became impatient with the history lesson. Cut it in half and get twice the engaged readership.

    Not paying Manafort and Giuliani has worked out *so* well for Trump.

    Five-term Republican Congressman Tom Marino of Pennsylvania is resigning ... after just being reelected in November.

    From the article:

    On the contrary, it's one of the most truthful statements Trump has made. But acknowledging such requires facing a reality no one wants to face.

    Or maybe it's just crazy coincidence when people are wrongly removed from voting rolls, absentee ballots suddenly turn up days after an election and a county elections supervisor is allowed to keep her job*** for two years after a court finds she illegally destroyed ballots.

    *** Until finally being suspended six weeks ago.

    That is awesome. The prank you are talking about was @ the Democratic National Convention in 1992. SPY magazine. Delegates had their free copy of the NY Times waiting at their hotel room door. The cover had a photo of Bill Clinton playing the saxophone in a subway station the night before, and a story about Ross Perot picking Oprah as his running mate. Little did anyone know that wouldn't be all that far fetched 30 years later. Oh, and a story about the Japanese buying Columbia University.

    Do I disagree that what you say happened? No. But don't act like short of perfection, there was massive voter fraud. No system is perfect. Are you going to pretend that these instances only happened in the 2016 election? Get real. There have been problems throughout my 55 years. Humans have to live with imperfections in everything, including our voting system.

    There are what 150-200 million eligible voters in the US? The examples that you point to are marginalia. Define "Massive Voter Fraud." IMHO that's millions of instances of fraudulent votes. Well, Trump spent millions on his voter fraud commission and disbanded it.

    The truth is coming out and people are turning away from those who cried wolf.

    For accuracy's sake, the original quote had it as "dead girl or live boy," in that order. More of a (sick) punchline that way.
