Landslide Victory for Donald Trump at Electoral College

Democrat fascists who tried to overthrow the election failed abysmally today. Trump won the electoral vote today in a landslide. More faithless electors abandoned the Democratic candidate, with Hillary electors preferring Bernie Sanders, Colin Powell and Faith Spotted Eagle.

On the same day of Trump’s triumph, we saw jihad terror in Berlin and Ankara. A Russian Ambassador was gunned down in cold blood by a police officer in Turkey shouting “Allah Akbar!” And a Nice-style terror attack took place at a Christmas market in Berlin. President Obama’s response? He went golfing after getting the news of the multiple terror attacks.

Right NowThe Electoral College has affirmed Donald J. Trump as the nation’s 45th president, pushing him past the 270-vote threshold for election, with scant evidence of the anti-Trump revolt among electors that some of his critics had hoped would occur.

Late Monday afternoon, Republican electors in Texas vaulted Mr. Trump past the 270 mark, giving him 36 votes, with one each for Gov. John Kasich of Ohio and Ron Paul.

Normally a political footnote, the electoral vote took on unexpected import this year after Mr. Trump’s upset of Hillary Clinton, who won the popular vote, spawned a determined effort to block his path to the presidency by grass-roots advocates who saw him as unfit for the White House and, to some, a threat to the political system.

Presidential electors — and particularly Republican electors, who are bound by tradition and often state law to support Mr. Trump — were inundated with phone calls, emails and even threats demanding that they vote for someone else. Leaders of groups that were lobbying the electors had privately believed they had a chance to persuade enough Republican electors to defect, denying him an Electoral College majority and throwing the election to the House of Representatives. But by late Monday, only a handful of electors had broken ranks. A full vote tracker is here.
