ARTICLE: Trump doesn't think Americans should decide the next American election

SNIP OF ARTICLE:

After a whirlwind week with a breathless series of cascading revelations, it’s easy to lose track of what really matters and what is simply a compounding factor. But my bottom line for the week is simple: Donald Trump does not believe Americans should be choosing the next president of the United States, and he is actively working to disenfranchise American voters. Trump wants Ukraine to help pick, China to help pick, and Russia to help pick. But Americans, meh. Who needs ‘em?

In fact, goddess only knows what other countries he has solicited on the matter. NBC’s Kelly O’Donnell said Friday that when Trump answered a select number of reporter questions on the South Lawn, hers was not one of them. As Trump was declaring that he wanted to investigate corruption (a newfound passion), she tried to pin him down on exactly which countries he had approached on the matter. Russia, she offered, the United Kingdom? “Which leaders did you discuss it with, sir?” All O’Donnell got back was tell it to the hand, Sister.



He is a brazen POS, he needs to be arrested. Sickening to have this criminal in office.

the American people didn't pick him either. We chose Hillary.

But little man Putin and America's filthy rich capitalist kings wanted this drug addicted psychopath and his Slovenian sex worker to represent them.

But because of slavery's need to have representation in our government back about 150 years ago, an antiquated voting system is still used to advance traitors and RepubliCONS. We would have 2 more Democratic presidents without this medieval voting system.
