If it is proven that you had to cheat and steal in order to "win", the win is invalidated.

Hillary won by 3,000,000 votes.

It has been proven that the three EC pivotal states' voter data bases were hacked by the Russians.

Add to that the gerrymandering and the GOP voter suppression, and no way was the win legitimate.

Hillary is one class act who was shoved aside by a PROVEN epic fraud and con man, and her party wrote some strongly worded letters.... Our motto is "Go Along To Get Along"....

So Sad.

Let's be sure to mention McConnell's refusal to alert the American people about a Russian attack. Now that the Gabby Giffords group is suing the NRA about $25M in illegal donations...campaign finance violation in addition to the porn star hush money...there's a new stone to throw onto Trump's heap of election fraud. Yes, it took a lot of cheating and he still didn't win the election!!! What a putz.

But I don't want her getting back in to the race. The Trumpanzees would have a collective pants-jizz if she did. They live to hate her. Hating Hillary is about the only notable thing most of these ambulatory shit-pellets will ever do with their miserable, squalid lives. The Trumpsters will crawl out of their trailers, tar-paper shacks, and coal-heap lean-tos into order to vote against her. It would be 2016 all over again, only worse, because we already know what the result would be.

Yashar Ali deserves a lot of credit for making this go viral (huge thread chronicling the donations):





After Notre Dame, viral tweet helps raise $1.8 million for black churches burned down in Louisiana

While the world pledged to rebuild a fire-ravaged Notre Dame Cathedral, worshipers thousands of miles away in Louisiana continued to pray for the rebuilding of three historically black churches destroyed in 10 days by an arsonist.

As more than a billion dollars in donations poured in for Notre Dame, some on social media pointed to three smaller houses of worship in need. A viral tweet by journalist Yashar Ali inspired celebrities, politicians, and thousands of others to give to the Louisiana churches. GoFundMe donations skyrocketed from $159,000 to more than $1.8 million in less than 36 hours.

When she speaks, she carries weight in her words. People listen. Putin hates her. I hope she is the thorn in rumps side. I wish she exposes him and all his bullshit to the American people. The path she is on now (protecting our country from Russian attacks) is a great way to get people together. A common adversary. Many did not like her but she speaks truth to power. I'm waiting for the tweet storm..

and outraged that such an inferior human being was ensconced in the position that rightfully belonged to Gore... because the horrible ramifications of that travesty were front and center. Now it's the horrible ramifications of the 2016 travesty that are front and center... with the presidential role currently filled by someone for whom the description "inferior human being" is a much too high and completely unattainable bar.

Clinton's generosity stands on its own merits, but also stands in stark contrast to what we can expect from that thing in the WH. I was just pointing out we are more likely to note the contrast between "what is" and "what should have been" when the "what is" is still occupying the office. (I don't know why I even responded, since it's so obvious.)

Im super confused by this...
how could their total raised be $2,155,360?
surely someone isnt suggesting that all the people and celebrities that donated only raised 155k ?
some clarity on this would be appreciated.. i mean, did she just not do it the way everyone else did it? is she making a surprise visit to deliver money herself? i mean, what gives?
hope someone will have a link talking about this.

There are 39,435 more.

Secretary Clinton did boost it on social media (which is a good thing to do), but the effort was already viral.



I have found that, even here, people willingly accept stories that fit their narrative without question (even when presented with info that refutes said stories). Sigh.
