Obama treats the White House as if it is his personal sinecure.

I can’t talk hockey with you all because I know nothing about it, but I thought you might be interested in this little factoid, as the talking heads and Trumpsters bray on about “unfairness” in the primary electoral process.

Did you know that there were more Republican votes cast in Wisconsin on our Primary day that there were cast in the entire state of NY in their Primary lasr week? Yet, NY gets 3 times the number of delegates to the convention as WI. Where is the fairness in that?

Furthermore, this deep blue purple state cast 100,000 more votes for Republicans than the Dems cast in their Primary.

i had heard that and of course those who live in Trumpland won’t find that relevant. So much was made of NY and there is a snowballs chance in HELL that Repubs will carry it. They have their blinders on and ear plugs in and it’s full speed ahead to the trumpian cliff.
A+++ Obama’s sinecure, but what in the world is Grandma Robinson still doing living in the people’s house when those kids have not been in need of a babysitter for forever?

The apportionment of delegates to the convention is based on US census, number of Congressional districts. There should, instead, be a weighting of each state according to its past performance in presidential elections. States like NY that never go GOP should not have undue influence.

The idea that there are equal delegates that come from minority majority districts that vote 99% Democrat is ridiculous.
