Any moron should know that liberals are intolerant and strident in their belief that they have some kind of duty to be confrontational with people. Flying commercial was a stupid thing to do.

And given her relationship with the PEOTUS why the hell doesn't she have a secret service agent or two with her?

WTF
According to the article, there were SS agents on the plane. They chose to let the airline handle the little drama queens.

Yeah, I thought the story was made up because of that. Poor thing.

Ok. The election was like a month and a half ago. About 46 percent of those who voted voted in a stupid way and because we use the electoral college system that resulted in an outcome that is bad for our country. Now we just have too hope it doesn't get too bad. Nothing more to be said.

Dry your eyes, sweetheart, the next four years are going to be hilarious. What do you say we turn that frown upside down?

StWronge, are you gunning for what's left of Josh Earnest's job? You've become quite the shill for the DNC. Why don't you make a New Year's resolution to hang it up? Laissez les bons temps rouler.

Granville County election worker charged with altering records to allow felons to vote
A former temporary elections worker in Granville County was arrested this week and charged with illegally accessing voter registration records and restoring voting privileges to 250 ineligible felons.

Joy Yvette Wilkerson, 41, of Henderson is facing multiple counts of fraudulently altering voter registrations, which is a felony charge.

According to a Granville County Sheriff’s Department report, the county’s Board of Elections discovered the fraudulent activity last June and contacted law enforcement. The report says Wilkerson accessed the county’s voter registration database and restored – or tried to restore – active voting status to 250 convicted felons who had been removed from voter rolls while they served their sentence.

I have written many times that voter fraud and/or illegal voting tends to work in the favor of Democrats. and that it can make a difference during extremely close elections. I've noted that in the Bush/Gore thing of 2000 the media recount found that about 5,000 illegal votes were case and about 70% of them were Democrats. That means it's reasonable to think Gore had a net edge of somewhere in the ballpark of 2000 in terms of the illegal vote.

However, if the point of your post is to suggest that there was enough illegal voting to account for Hillary Clinton winning the popular vote, I think that is extremely unlikely. She won the popular vote by about 2.9 million. Overwhelmingly likely that more legal, legitimate voters voted for Clinton than voted for Trump and that the margin was in the millions.

Just to kind of put it into perspective, if you were to take the 2000 Florida situation and multiply it by 51 for the number of jurisdictions voting in a Presidential election you get a net Democrat edge of 102,000 votes. Yes I know that's very rough and crude but what it's telling you is that even in a case like 2000 Florida where everything was looked at in a lot of detail there just aren't that many illegal votes proportionately. It's ridiculous for Trump to suggest, when Clinton won the popular vote by 2.9 million, that it was because of illegal voting.

No, she won California and New York. Big difference. THAT is why we don't go strictly on popular vote. The last thing 90% of America wants is NY and CA making all the decisions.

Like a football team winning the total yards stat in a game. Interesting, but not the stat that determines W's and L's. Trump won on the scoreboard.

She won the popular vote, AZ. Believe it or not, American Citizens in California and New York are just as much American Citizens as people in Montana are. More American Citizens voted for Clinton than voted for Trump. It is what is is.

And no 90% of at least the PEOPlE in America don't feel as you say they do because California and New York represent about 18% of the population.

Do you think that someone's vote should matter less because they are in a high population State?
