Trump: Governors Who Give Him State's Electoral College Votes Get 'Anything They Need' To Fight C19

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Donald Trump told America’s governors on a conference call today that if they promise to award him their state’s Electoral College votes this November, he will “make bigly sure” they receive all the federal assistance they need to combat the spread of COVID-19 — the novel coronavirus — personally. The president offered any governor willing to pledge their state’s Electoral College votes to him in this fall’s presidential election what he called “the deal of a lifetime,” namely, any and all federally-backed resources they need to fight back the pandemic outbreak of COVID-19. Speaking to reporters in the White House hallways on his way to have the kitchen staff make him a triple-decker nacho cheese fried chicken and steak sandwich, Trump gave some details of his proposals to White House pool reporters.

“In times like these, everyone needs all the help they can get. Sure, these governors all should’ve anticipated that when I said it’s a hoax it was going to be really bigly bad,” Trump said, “but they should all feel coming to my federal government and asking me, personally, for help. Because nothing would make me happier than to be everyone’s savior, which, if we’re being honest, I already am. So right off the bat, I would say that it would certainly be my honor to help them get anything they need to battle this invisible scourge that may or may not have been a hoax until I realized I couldn’t excuse my way out of dealing with it.”

1. It's gotten quite difficult to tell reality and satire apart.

3. It sure has.

2. You almost had me there. Hardly anything surprises me any more, and

satire is almost impossible.

5. Yeah, who would have thought he'd deny $400M in military aid to Ukraine during a hot war,

just so their new president would announce an investigation into Joe Biden and his son?

6. We need every vote in every state to matter and count equally

Now we need to urge state legislators, in states with the 74 more electoral votes needed, to enact the National Popular Vote bill.

The bill is 73% of the way to guaranteeing the majority of Electoral College votes and the presidency to the candidate who receives the most popular votes in the country, by changing state winner-take-all laws (not mentioned in the U.S. Constitution, but later enacted by 48 states), without changing anything in the Constitution, using the built-in method that the Constitution provides for states to make changes.

It requires enacting states with 270 electoral votes to award their electoral votes to the winner of the most national popular votes.

All voters would be valued equally in presidential elections, no matter where they live.

Every vote, everywhere, for every candidate, would be politically relevant and equal in every presidential election.
No more distorting, crude, and divisive red and blue state maps of predictable outcomes, that don’t represent any minority party voters within each state.
