by Lindsey Ellefson | 10:41 pm, January 25th, 2017
During an alreadyhyped interview with David Muir that premiered in full tonight, Donald Trump was asked whether he thinks it diminishes his credibility to falsely insist that 3 to 5 million votes were cast illegally even though he ended up winning.
Trump said that no, he doesnt think it diminishes his credibility to insist that dead people and undocumented immigrants are registered to vote and that some people vote in two or three! states.
He also said that he would have won the popular vote if he had tried to.
Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by nearly 3 million votes.

(4,835 posts)How many of them voted twice?
He apparently points to that as proof (the multiple registrations) that it's easy to vote more than once, but if none of the people that registered in multiple places voted twice, that doesn't support his case.
He's just silly.

Just what's he hearing in these "briefings" he's getting?
He's cracked.

We must remember that besides the 3 million votes that Hillary beat him by there were another 7 million who did not vote for either Hillary or the twitler.
That is close to 10 million people who are disenfranchised by his usurping of our WH.

(18,402 posts)We should all wear buttons, every day, saying "I didn't vote for him." Millions and millions of people. It will push him over the edge (if he isn't there already).
