This is appalling.

I am ashamed to admit I knew very little about this endeavor until the last few weeks, and even though I consider myself tied in politically though I don’t read newspapers or watch television, I had only heard passing comments about it, a faint echo. I had no idea they had that many states signed on, including my own.

This is appalling.

Maybe someone can correct me, but I have the distinct impression this has deliberately been run under the radar, which is the way Rats do things anyway. I had no idea this was this far along. 181 electoral votes is alarming to me.

I understand that this could ostensibly work in the favor of conservative Presidential campaigns as well, but in the same way things like gerrymandering and ballot harvesting are done mostly in leftist efforts to get by chicanery what they cannot get by an outright vote, this falls right into line with that.

There are two things that seem immediately apparent to me when I consider this effort:

1.) This is an end run by the Left around the Constitution.

2.) This has been done quietly as to avoid any national scrutiny of this.

Again, I am appalled by this. Living in a blue state, this is a repudiation and rape of my voting rights. It is not hard to understand why the Left wants this, as it has its foundation in large population centers.

It is clear that they are doing this in a reactionary mode against the the electoral college as it is currently constituted, simply because they lost. If the Left had won, you would not see this, end of story.

Now that I am aware of this, I have to find a way to oppose this. My opposition to this is not based on winning or losing elections. My opposition is based on the fact that my vote will now be the equivalent of having to jump off a bridge because a large number of stupid people jumped off a bridge.

This is even more destructive than the combination of loosening of voting procedures, harvesting ballots, voting fraud, and leftist litigation of elections.

‘My opposition is based on the fact that my vote will now be the equivalent of having to jump off a bridge because a large number of stupid people jumped off a bridge.’

this happens now to every voter whose state allots winner take all electors to that voter’s opposing party...in a typical presidential election, 80% of the counties in PA vote republican, and Philly and Pittsburgh override the votes of those red counties...

I am coming to the view that the only thing that will save this country is a military counter-coup, followed by a period of DJT governing by decree.

In other words, our great president must act learn to act like an American Francisco Franco, even though he is more comfortable in the role of deal maker.

Officials of the RAT party has proven they are not open to bargaining and compromise. They are a cabal of communist traitors whose only goal is to enslave every American who is not part of the Ivy League ruling class.

We have expected this for years.

The only real constitutional way to oppose it appears to me to invoke Article I, Section 10, line 1.
