Trump's At It Again...Now It's Accusations of Election Rigging

Immediately after the third presidential debate concluded, I said to my husband, "The lead story will be that Trump won't accept the election results if he loses".  Sure enough, as Fox News Channel's Shepard Smith wrapped up the network's coverage of the debate, he said just that.  But I'm not going to get bogged down with that nonsense.  The fact of the matter is that it doesn't matter whether Trump accepts the election results or not.  If he loses and decides not to accept the results, then okay, he won't accept them. Nothing changes.  Hillary will still be the President-elect.  There will still be a transference of power.  That's the beauty of the American system of government.




The media know this full-well.  But if you Google "Trump won't accept the election results" you'll get over 50,000,000 results, which suggests to me that lots of people actually think that if Trump declares "I don't accept the results" after the election, the American political system will grind to a screeching halt.  It won't.  It didn't when Al Gore refused to accept the results of his loss (he actually retracted his concession speech).  It didn't in 2004 when Sen. John Kerry pledged to send lawyers around the country
to fight fraud.  Even a month after the election, Kerry still had lawyers at work (despite claims to the contrary, it doesn't seem that he really accepted the outcome).

So I find it rather peculiar that there's so much fanfare regarding Trump's decision to "look at it at the time" (which is actually what he said). What's peculiar is that earlier that day some truly disturbing news surfaced about well-connected, highly placed democratic operatives who arrogantly discussed on video the work they were doing to steal votes, alter the election, incite violence at Trump rallies (on behalf of the democratic party) and avoid prosecution. In other words, they were talking about
rigging the election.

Yet, if you Google "rampant election fraud" you will yield only about a half-million results, and many of those results from so-called unbiased fact-checkers and media outlets assert that Trump is lying about election fraud.  I know better than to hold my breath waiting for the media to do any degree of investigative reporting to inform the public about this and many, many other acts of corruption being waged by democrat operatives to help elect Hillary Clinton.




Immediately after the videos were released Scott Fogal (the guy in the glasses in the video) was fired from People for the American Way. I had to laugh at that because part of the job description for guys like this is to be the fall guy when plans go off the rail, so his firing is not a big deal, at all.  He'll simply move on to one of the many organizations that are doing similar work.  Robert Creamer, the older guy in the video, whom Fogal describes as "diabolical" quickly resigned from Americans United for Change. Again, not a big deal. Creamer was without question the middleman between the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee, and since there is a web of these subversive, well-funded and politically connected groups, make no mistake about it, Creamer will continue his work to rig this election.  It should be noted that Robert Creamer, a convicted felon, and husband of Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL), has visited the White House 342 times since 2009 and has met with President Obama 47 times according to White House records. (According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Creamer only made 340 visits to the White House.)  In addition to committing financial crimes and political skulduggery, Creamer is also the author of a book that outlines various schemes, to win elections for democrats.

Over the past few months, I've read about political organizers registering illegals to vote.  Usually, these stories are found on blogs or on the rare occasion, mentioned in mainstream media.  But the latest dump of Clinton-related emails from Wikileaks reveals an apparent desire (if not strategy) from the highest levels of the Clinton campaign to get illegals to vote.


For years, I've known and occasionally discussed, the ruse that has been used to get illegals to vote, which mostly involves convincing the public that republicans are attempting to disenfranchise blacks of their voting rights by requiring a state ID.  Quite naturally anyone would be outraged by this, except the problem is, the Dems know this isn't true, but once again, they use minorities to do their dirty work, The voter ID issue is principally about creating a path for illegals to vote...period. 

What's equally troubling is that partisanship is becoming more important than guarding our rights as Americans and our political process.  As a nation, we must send a clear message that manipulating our political system is not only unacceptable, but will not be tolerated.

I'm going to wrap this post up because I've spent too much time talking about actual efforts to rig the election, instead of Donald Trump's selfish and insidious plot to destroy the American system of government by virtue of his possible refusal to accept the results (should he lose).
