Because that's a bald-faced LIE...and only valid in circles of White Supremacists, which raging Rep. Stevie is a full-fledged member of.

Is that orange man child so fragile and upset that every single one of his lackeys has to be out in full force feeding alternate facts about the popular vote?

This is the sorest bunch of winners I have ever seen. You won. You control the house, the senate, the executive branch and will pick a conservative justice - pretty much a blank check to do what you want. Why is it so damned important to relitigate the popular vote? In the end they'll still do exactly what they want. The only reason is the big baby in chief is tantruming over numbers again.

15. What a weak interviewer!

The minute he said that most of Clinton's votes came from CA, where Trump didn't campaign, she should have noted that Sec Clinton didn't campaign in Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, etc, and asked if we should discount those votes as well.

He said there were a number of indictments passed down in Indiana - how many? And were they all Democrats? I doubt it.

And if there were 2.4 million illegal votes cast, how can he be sure they all voted for Clinton? Has he done any statistical analysis on this "extrapolation"???

These assholes never have to answer for their lies and distortions.

16. The rethuglicans

The rethuglicans are honestly the biggest bunch of babies there are! Whenever things don't go the way they want them to, they come up with a conspiracy theory! And, for King and tRUMP to say that if presidential elections were won by popular vote, then tRUMP would have campaigned more in California and won the popular vote...well, guess what...if elections were indeed won by popular vote, Hillary would have campaigned in California too and she would have won by an even larger margin in the popular vote than she already did!! You know what...I'm going to call King's office right now and leave this all as a message on his voicemail! These people are all just pure scum!!!

I just said in my previous post that I was going to call King's office and leave him a message (about what was in my post). Well, i called and spoke to the person that answered for about an hour! It was really a wonderful conversation...he of course is batshit crazy like tRUMP and King because he agrees with everything they (and the other rethuglicans) say and do,, but I actually enjoyed the sane, calm conversation that we had!!

how can you prove they went to Clinton? They could just as easily have gone to TRUMP.

Near the end of the clip, watch his left hand: The nervous moves tell he is lying.

OH, wait, he's a right wing nut job. His calculator is that voice in his head that tells him things.
