If Mueller had uncovered Russian hacking into the voting machines themselves and shown that the vote counts were actually invalid... then there still wouldn't be a constitutional method for seating Clinton... but at least there would be a conversation "among the patriots". With the report as it is, there is no way for Clinton to become president apart from getting in to the primaries, winning the nomination, and then beating Trump at the ballot box.

His commission on airline security could very well have prevented them.

Hillary Clinton warned the American public. She knew. She was right.

But too few listened or simply refused to hear.

It could be worse. If Republican senate and traitors like Giuliani and General Michael Flynn had their way she would be jail like Nelson Mandela.

Can't get that image of Jill Stein and Michael Flynn celebrating with Putin and his operatives in Russia out of my mind.

We got screwed and so did our democracy. McConnell should be removed from office for stealing a SC seat by a duly elected president who got elected by the will of the people so him saying wait till next election and let the will of the people elect a new president to then pick a seat. But since Trump was elected by the electoral college and not the majority of the people his arguments fall apart. This criminal anti democratic cult which used to be the repub party has so corrupted this democracy it's become outrageous and intolerable. But we are here now and I have been able to regain hope for our democratic principles so we may stop and correct course. Climate change makes it necessary to take immediate action just to survive. These moderates cannot remain overly cautious. We need bold action which means we must concentrate on our present condition and let the past not detract us from the present.
