Re: Reader: 'Not voting in the farce is a form....

The electors choose the president. That is the law. How one feels about this doesn't matter. The law stands until it is properly changed. It has to. The popular vote means Nothing.

I've always said that Hillary is positioned to make Trump look like a savior. And she does. All of her dirty laundry is being rolled out with perfect timing and perfect effect to make Trump look good.

A very dangerous situation is being orchestrated. If the electors choose Hillary and the popular vote goes to Trump, then things will get out of hand, approaching open rebellion. At that point if the decision is made to allow popular vote to override law then the organic (first ten) amendments are officially dead. They become subject to arbitrary interpretation heavily influenced by mob ignorance.

This is a dangerous situation. There is more at stake here than most people care to think about.

Trump and Hillary both know that electors choose the president and yet neither will bring that fact to the public mind. They carry on as if the popular vote actually means something. Neither will tell the voters that they need to put their elected state representatives against the wall. What does that say about both Trump and Hillary? What does that say about the state of mind of this nation?
