Recounts and Russia - There may be hope

Well ... we made it through Thanksgiving dinner without anyone being a bit interested in politics. It was a welcome day off. 

 
Still riding on that wave of calm, today has given me a smidgen of hope that things may be falling into place to change the horrible outcome of the election. 



The hope I feel stems from two things mainly ... Jill Stien looking to fund a recount and the fact that Russia could possibly be involved in some behind the scenes antics. The Russian involvement alone could be a total game changer.

Then there is the question of Trump even being fit to be president, for a whole host of reasons. Top two on my list are the lack of any real political experience, which his supporters thought was a good thing, but could mean disaster for the country. And the second on my personal list, is his overall personality and demeanor. He displays traits which all seem to point to him being a full-fledged sociopath

Factor in that he doesn't even want to live at the White House and we know his family will not reside there. This causes all kinds of issues not only security wise, but add to that the shear cost over the next four years. Will even HIS supporters stand for that?

Then we have the ACLU. Here is a PDF link to the Trump Memos, which outline his plans as POTUS and how they violate laws.

All of this and more leads to the Electoral College having grounds for invoking the Faithless Elector.

It may be grasping at straws to think any of the above will actually end up with Hillary taking office, but I don't feel as terrified any more.  Lets cross our collective fingers folks! 


Peace Out....
