Are you a fan of coup porn?

Are you so frustrated with the futile attempts to undo the 2016 election and get Trump out of the White House that you have bought into the breathless, almost hopeful lefty narrative that he will refuse to leave if/when he loses the election?

    Lol.
    He is going to win.  But at least they have not made a movie about his assassination like the did W.

    Given that he lost the popular vote but managed to hijack his way into the White House by manipulating the gerrymander built into the EC ...
    He threatened to denounce the 2016 election as "fake" if he lost while campaigning. He's already attempting to use the COVUD-19 pandemic for political purposes - many more people will be forced to vote by mail, and he's gutting the USPS.
    I'm guessing he'll be carried out of the WH in a pine box. The fit of apoplexy he'll have when the vote is declared will bring on a fatal heart attack or stroke.

    Again it is not a gerrymander.  You may not like it. But it is not a gerrymander.  The borders of the states do not move.   Gerrymander only applies to the House of Representatives and local/state electors.

    Please look up gerrymander. You apparently misunderstand its definition, or you would not try to apply the word to the Electoral College. It has nothing to do with that.

    One vote in Wyoming equals seven votes in California. That's a gerrymander by definition - and it's built in. The less populous states are all red.

    No. Gerrymander is when a politican has the district boundry lines moved to make his/her seat more secure. 

    gerrymandering

    the practice of dividing or arranging a territorial unit into election districts in a way that gives one political party an unfair advantage in elections

    Wrong. Surprising considering your general intelligence and erudition. But lots of folks have intellectual blind spots around Trump.
