REMEMBERING RECENT ELECTIONS- DON'T ALLOW TRUMPIAN TREASON TO SUCCEED: THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION- SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG. PARTS 5-8.

 THESE ARTICLES EXPOSE AND DESTROY TRUMPIAN/GOP ALLEGATIONS OF FRAUDULENT ELECTIONS THAT BENEFITTED DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES. THERE WERE RIGGED ELECTION RESULTS, BUT THEY GAVE US A TRUMP WHITE HOUSE, AND A SURGE OF FASCIST GOP MEMBERS IN THE SENATE.



PART 5.


There are many things that THE DISCIPLINES OF LOGIC AND CRITICAL THINKING CAN DO, THAT BENEFIT US AS INDIVIDUALS, AND SOCIETY AS A WHOLE. Unfortunately, it means, that sometimes, we have to see things as they really are, not as we want them to be.

With that in mind, "PRESIDENT ELECT" DONALD TRUMPS CONTINUING ABILITY TO PROVE THAT HE CARES VERY LITTLE ABOUT THE COUNTRY AS A WHOLE, MAY FINALLY BE LIFTING THE VEIL OF IGNORANCE FROM SOME OF THOSE WHO HAVE SUPPORTED HIM. HOWEVER, I WOULD LIKE TO REMIND MY READERS OF AN OBSERVATION I MADE A NUMBER OF MONTHS AGO:


"No, Hard Core Trump Supporters go far beyond the Republican Party "Revolution." To them, Hate, Prejudice, Xenophobia, Racism,and Religious Zealotry are not Abstract Concepts to be studied, but Tangible and Useful Tactics to Influence Fanatics of every Stripe, and scare more Rational Potential Voters."

"What is Rule #1- What Donald Trump has Done or Said, or will Do or Say, MEANS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AS LONG AS HE TOES THE EXTREMIST LINE."


FROM THE FEATURE ARTICLE:  "MESSAGE TO ALL PROGRESSIVES: DON'T YOU SEE IT, EVEN NOW? PART 2."



Now we have the INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY TELLING CONGRESS, AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, THAT THERE IS STRONG EVIDENCE THAT RUSSIA HAS HACKED INTO THIS COUNTRIES COMPUTER SYSTEM, AND LEAKED INFORMATION THAT BENEFITED THE REPUBLICAN PARTY DURING THE LAST ELECTION.

Yes, DONALD TRUMP IGNORES THIS POSSIBILITY, AND RIDICULES THE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY FOR EVEN CONSIDERING IT.  However, This Obvious "CONFLICT OF INTEREST," make his Assertions of Dubious Quality, together with the fact that he offers no reasonable answers to refute the evidence being offered to Congress.

HOWEVER, IT COULD GET MUCH WORSE, AND HERE'S WHY:

WHAT IF THE ELECTION RESULTS WERE TAMPERED WITH?

Consider the following;

AS TRUMP SUPPORTERS ASSERT, HE DID GET MORE THAN +2,000,000 VOTES THAN
ROMNEY DID IN 2012.

YES HE DID, BUT WHERE WAS THAT INCREASE FROM? AS I HAVE ALREADY POINTED OUT IN AN EARLIER POST, THERE WERE ALMOST 8 MILLION MORE VOTES CAST FOR PRESIDENT IN 2016 THAN THERE WERE IN 2012.  That is hardly a ringing endorsement, and is one of the reasons his % of the vote was smaller than ROMNEYS.

HERE IS A FIGURE YOU CAN CONTEMPLATE AS A LEAD IN TO PART 6:


THE REPUBLICAN TOTAL NUMBER OF VOTES FROM 2012-2016 INCREASED. +2,046,375

MORE THAN HALF OF THAT INCREASE CAME FROM ONLY 4 STATES.


CARE TO GUESS WHICH ONES?

MICHIGAN. +164,287.

PENNSYLVANIA.  +290,299.

OHIO.  +179,568.

FLORIDA.  +454,439.

TOTAL: 1,088,593.

STAY TUNED...





PART 6.

Presidential Election, Usa, Politics 
(BELOW REPRINTED FROM PART 5.)

THE REPUBLICAN TOTAL NUMBER OF VOTES FROM 2012-2016 INCREASED +2,046,375.

MORE THAN HALF OF THAT INCREASE CAME FROM ONLY 4 STATES.

CARE TO GUESS WHICH ONES?

MICHIGAN. +164,287.

PENNSYLVANIA.  +290,299.

OHIO.  +179,568.

FLORIDA.  +454,439.

TOTAL: 1,088,593.
***************************************************************************************************************

To help put this in proper perspective, consider the following:

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY INCREASED THEIR NATIONAL VOTE COUNT BY +2,046,375. 
(2012- 2016).

THE ABOVE 4 STATES ACCOUNT FOR +1,088,593 OF THIS INCREASE.(53.2%)

THAT MEANS THAT THE REMAINING 46 STATES WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR 
THE OTHER 957,782 VOTES. (46.8%).

MICHIGAN, PENNSYLVANIA, OHIO, FLORIDA had a combined increase in REPUBLICAN
VOTES SO LARGE, THAT IT SURPASSED ALL OTHER STATES ADDED TOGETHER.

However, sometimes huge gains in NUMBERS OF VOTES WASN'T ENOUGH TO CLINCH A VICTORY. THAT, AND THE POSSIBILITY THAT SOMEONE MIGHT REALIZE THAT RUSSIAS HACKING, AND RELEASE OF DATA DETRIMENTAL TO HILLARY CLINTON, COULD NEVER BE QUANTIFIED INTO HOW MANY VOTES WOULD BE EITHER GAINED OR LOST. THIS MAY HAVE LED TO POSSIBLE VARIATIONS IN HOW THE FINAL VOTE COUNT COULD BE MANIPULATED.

(Which leads to the following: WHY IS THERE AN ASSUMPTION THAT RUSSIA, AND ONLY RUSSIA, COULD BE GUILTY OF TAMPERING WITH THE ELECTION RESULTS. THE RUSSIANS HACKING INTO COMPUTER FILES TO GATHER INFORMATION TO BE USED AGAINST HILLARY CLINTON IS A SEPARATE ISSUE FROM INTENTIONALLY ALTERING BALLOT COUNTS).

FOR THIS EXAMPLE, LET US BRING ANOTHER ONE OF THE 6 STATES THAT CHANGED SUPPORT FROM DEMOCRAT TO REPUBLICAN FOR THE 2016 ELECTION.

WISCONSIN.

In 2016 Wisconsin the REPUBLICAN PARTY WON THE STATE BY A VOTE OF:
1,405,284- 1,382,586. Another narrow victory.

Oddly enough, they did this while accumulating LESS VOTES THAN IT HAD IN 2012.
THE REDUCTION WAS ONLY -2682, BUT IT WAS A REDUCTION. I GUESS
WISCONSIN REPUBLICANS SAW NO GREAT NEED TO TURN OUT THE VOTE.

Well, they were right. THE DEMOCRATS, WHO HAD BEATEN THE REPUBLICANS
BY ABOUT 7% OF THE VOTE IN 2012, LOST NEARLY A QUARTER OF A MILLION
VOTES IN 2016. (-238,449.).

INTERESTING.








PART 7.

IT IS THIS BAD...

Before I continue with an Analysis of the 2016 Presidential Election, I would like to point out a couple of things:

-  All the Statistics and Numbers I use in this SERIES OF POSTS ARE AVAILABLE AND EASY TO FIND ON THE INTERNET. NUMEROUS SITES CARRY THE "OFFICIAL" ELECTION RETURNS FOR EACH STATE, AND THE U.S AS A WHOLE. IF YOU DISAGREE WITH THE FIGURES, AT LEAST HAVE THE INTELLECTUAL HONESTY TO BACK IT WITH FACTUAL DATA. IT CAN BE AS EASY AS GOING ON WIKIPEDIA, AND ENTERING "2016" OR "2012" ELECTION. However, if you don't want to use WIKIPEDIA, I'm sure your News Outlet of Choice will contain all the information you need.

-  The RUSSIAN CONNECTION TO THIS ELECTION, WHILE DISTURBING, IS NOT THE REAL STORY.  AS I SAID IN THE LAST POST,YOU CANNOT "QUANTIFY" THE AMOUNT OR NUMBER OF VOTES THAT WERE GAINED OR LOST BY THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT LEAKING INFORMATION DETRIMENTAL TO HILLARY CLINTON.

EVEN IF THIS INTERFERENCE WENT AS FAR AS HACKING INTO SYSTEMS TO ALTER
VOTER RETURNS, IT LEAVES ONE MORE IMPORTANT FACTOR TO CONSIDER:

IT WAS NOT RUSSIAN POLITICIANS WHO CERTIFIED, AND SIGNED OFF ON THE "OFFICIAL NUMBERS." IT WAS AMERICAN ELECTION OFFICIALS WHO DID THAT. AS IMPROBABLE AS THESE TOTALS SEEM TO BE IN SOME CASES, NO ONE CONTESTED THEM.  

THAT IS THE REAL STORY.

I'll leave you with another example:


PENNSYLVANIA- 2012 ELECTION. TOTAL # OF DEMOCRAT\REPUBLICAN VOTES: 5,670,708.

TOTAL DEMOCRATIC VOTES- 2,990,274.

TOTAL REPUBLICAN VOTES- 2,680,434.

MARGIN OF DEMOCRATIC VICTORY- 309,840 VOTES.

PENNSYLVANIA- 2016 ELECTION.  TOTAL # OF DEMOCRATIC/REPUBLICAN VOTES: 5,897,174.  UP +226,466 VOTES FROM 2012 ELECTION.

TOTAL DEMOCRATIC VOTES- 2,926,441 VOTES, LOSS OF 63,833 VOTES FROM 2012 ELECTION.

TOTAL REPUBLICAN VOTES-  2,970,733 VOTES, GAIN OF +290,299 VOTES.


HERE IS A BREAKDOWN:

The TOTAL # OF  DEMOCRAT/REPUBLICAN VOTES INCREASED +226,466 votes from
2012-2016.

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY LOST 63,833 VOTES BETWEEN 2012 AND 2016, OR ABOUT -2.1%. In itself, that's 
not a drastic decline. It would be considered a result that is well within normal expectations.

HOWEVER, THE REPUBLICAN PARTY NUMBERS ARE ANOTHER MATTER. AN INCREASE OF +290,299 VOTES REPRESENTS ABOUT AN + 10.8% INCREASE. 
This number, (+290,299), is more than 4 times the number 
of votes that the Democrats lost.

TO ACHIEVE THE TOTAL OF 2,970,733 VOTES IN 2016, THE REPUBLICAN PARTY NEEDED A SCENARIO LIKE THE FOLLOWING TO HAPPEN:

EVERY SINGLE VOTER WHO CAST A BALLOT FOR THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE IN 2012, HAD TO DO SO AGAIN IN 2016: 2,680,434 VOTES.

EVERY NEW VOTER WHO CAST A BALLOT FOR EITHER THE DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE, HAD TO CHOOSE REPUBLICAN: +226,466 VOTES.

THAT TOTAL= 2,906,900 IS STILL SHORT OF THE "OFFICIAL" TOTAL OF 2,970,733 VOTES.

HOW COULD THIS BE? THE REPUBLICANS WERE STILL 63,833 VOTES SHORT OF THE FINAL NUMBER. WELL, GO BACK A FEW PARAGRAPHS AND CHECK OUT THE NUMBER OF VOTES THE DEMOCRATS LOST FROM 2012-2016= -63,833.

TO ACHIEVE A TOTAL OF 2,970,733 VOTES IN 2016, HERE IS RUNDOWN OF WHAT THE REPUBLICANS NEEDED TO HAPPEN:

EVERY REPUBLICAN VOTER FROM 2012, RETURNS AND VOTES REPUBLICAN AGAIN IN 2016: 2,680,434.

EVERY NEW VOTER WHO SELECTS EITHER DEM.\REP. IN 2016, CHOOSES REP.: 226,466.

EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE 63,833 VOTERS THE DEM. PARTY LOST BETWEEN 2012- 2016, RETURNS TO THE POLLS AND VOTES REPUBLICAN.

2,680,434 + 226,466 + 63,833 = 2,970,733.

THIS IS LUDICROUS. NO REASONABLE INDIVIDUAL WHO
LOOKS AT THESE NUMBERS COULD TAKE THEM SERIOUSLY. 

TO ALL DEMOCRATS, PROGRESSIVES, AND FRIENDS AND ALLIES OF THE U.S. ACROSS THE GLOBE: THIS ELECTION WAS A SHAM. 

DON'T BELIEVE ME? PLEASE CHECK THE RESULTS YOURSELF. DON'T TAKE MY WORD, GO OVER THEM CAREFULLY. 

ANY DEMOCRATIC LEADER WHO SAW THESE RESULTS, AND DIDN'T QUESTION THEM, IS AS GUILTY AS ANY REPUBLICAN WHO MAY HAVE SET THIS SCAM INTO MOTION. 

ANY DEMOCRATIC LEADER...

I HAVE BROKEN DOWN ONLY 2 STATES, WISCONSIN, AND PENNSYLVANIA. STAY TUNED....




PART 8.

REPUBLICAN PARTY VOTING RESULTS FOR 2012 AND 2016.

HERE IS THE % BREAKDOWN FOR THE                                     
24 STATES THAT VOTED REPUBLICAN                                        
IN 2012 AND 2016.                                                                              

IF THE CANDIDATE LISTED IS ROMNEY,                                     

THE HIGHER FIGURE IS FROM 2012.                                             

IF IT IS TRUMP, THE HIGHER FIGURE IS

UTAHS LARGE MARGIN BETWEEN
2012- 72.79%, 2016- 45.54% COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED
BY THE 21.54% EARNED BY EVAN MCMULLEN (IND.)
IN 2016.



THE BIGGEST INCREASE FROM 2012- 2016.
WEST VIRGINIA- +6.33%.

THE BIGGEST DECREASE- IDAHO -5.27%


NOW, HERE ARE THE 6 STATES THAT VOTED DEMOCRAT IN 2012, BUT REPUBLICAN
IN 2016.

KEEP IN MIND, THESE TOTALS REVEAL NOTHING ABOUT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTIES RESULTS FOR THE TWO ELECTIONS.



CHANGES IN REPUBLICAN SUPPORT FROM 2012-2016.

                       2012 RESULTS.            2016 RESULTS.                    NUMBER/ %

FLORIDA.       4,163,447                       4,617,886                           +454,439/ +10.9%

IOWA.              730,617                          800,983                              +70,366/ +9.6%

MICHIGAN.    2,115,256                        2,279,543                           +164,287/ +7.8%

OHIO.             2,661,437                         2,841,005                           +179,568/ +6.7%

WISCONSIN.  1,407,966                         1,405,284                          -2682/-.02%


AS YOU CAN SEE, 5 OF THE STATES HAD % INCREASES LARGER THAN ANY OF THE
24 STATES WHO VOTED REPUBLICAN IN BOTH ELECTIONS. REMEMBER, THESE WERE
STATES THAT WENT DEMOCRAT 4 YEARS EARLIER.

KEEP IN MIND THAT MICHIGAN AND PENNSYLVANIA HAD VOTED DEMOCRAT SINCE 1992.

WHAT ABOUT WISCONSIN? STAY TUNED...





REMEMBERING RECENT ELECTIONS- DON'T ALLOW TRUMPIAN TREASON TO SUCCEED: THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION- SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG. PARTS 1-4.

THESE ARTICLES EXPOSE AND DESTROY TRUMPIAN/GOP ALLEGATIONS OF FRAUDULENT ELECTIONS THAT BENEFITTED DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES. THERE WERE RIGGED ELECTION RESULTS, BUT THEY GAVE US A TRUMP WHITE HOUSE, AND A SURGE OF FASCIST GOP MEMBERS IN THE SENATE.

......................................................................................................................................

THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION- SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG. PARTS 1-4.



PART 1.

Let me make one thing clear: I am not a Statistician/Mathematician. I try to stick to specific
principles when discussing TOPICS SUCH AS MORAL THEORY, POLITICS, THE LEGAL SYSTEM, RELIGION, AND THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD. USING THE DISCIPLINES OF LOGIC AND CRITICAL THINKING, I TRY TO AVOID USING NUMBERS AND PERCENTAGES TO MAKE A POINT. I BELIEVE THAT CONFLICTS ARISING IN THESE SUBJECTS SHOULD NEVER BE DECIDED ON THE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS WHO HAPPEN TO FALL ON ONE SIDE OF AN ISSUE.  I USE NUMBERS TO SUPPORT AN OPINION, NOT MAKE ONE.


However, the Election Totals have, for me, raised a serious red flag. These Numbers make little sense, and a COMPREHENSIVE STUDY/INVESTIGATION NEEDS TO BE DONE. NOW.

Here is how I came to this opinion;

Numbers FOR MICHIGAN, PENNSYLVANIA, AND WISCONSIN-  The 2012, 2016 Presidential Elections.

IN 2016 HILLARY CLINTON WON THE TOTAL POPULAR VOTE BY ABOUT 3 MILLION VOTES, AND PERCENT OF TOTAL. 48.1%- 46%. THE MEDIA REPORTS THESE NUMBERS FREQUENTLY. HOWEVER, HERE ARE SOME NUMBERS THAT ARE RARELY MENTIONED, IF AT ALL.

2008- Winner: BARACK OBAMA.
NUMBERS;52.9% of the Vote. Total Votes-  69,498,516. 365 Electoral Votes.Carried-28 States+DC.

Opponent- JOHN MCCAIN.
NUMBERS;45.7%. of the Vote. Total Votes- 59,948,323. 173 Electoral Votes.Carried-22 States.


2012- Winner:  BARACK OBAMA.
NUMBERS;51.1% of the Vote. Total Votes- 65,915,795. 332 Electoral Votes.Carried-26 States+DC.

Opponent- MITT ROMNEY.
NUMBERS; 47.2% of the Vote.  Total Votes- 60,933,504. 206 Electoral Votes.Carried- 24 States.

2016- Winner: DONALD TRUMP.
NUMBERS;46% of Vote.  Total Votes-  62,979,636.  306 Electoral Votes. Carried.- 30 States.

Opponent- HILLARY CLINTON.
NUMBERS;48.1% of Vote.  Total Votes- 65,844, 610. 232 Electoral Votes.- 20 States+DC.

OBSERVATION 1- IN TERMS OF PERCENT OF VOTE, MITT ROMNEY HAD A HIGHER
PERCENT THAN DONALD TRUMP. 47.2% to 46%.

OBSERVATION 2-  BARACK OBAMA % OF TOTAL VOTES IN 2008 AND 2012 WAS OVER 50%, (52.9%, 51.1%), YET DONALD TRUMP, WITH 46%, CARRIED MORE STATES (30) THAN BARACK OBAMA DID IN EITHER ELECTION. (28,26).

OBSERVATION 3.
WISCONSIN- IN 2012, A TOTAL OF 3,028,651 VOTES WERE CAST FOR BOTH THE DEMOCRATIC AND REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES. IN 2016 THAT NUMBER
REDUCED TO 2,787,820, OR -240,831.

WHILE THE REPUBLICAN NUMBERS WERE VERY CLOSE
2012 TOTAL- 1,407,966 TO 2016-1,405,289 FOR A TOTAL REDUCTION OF 2,677 VOTES.

THE DEMOCRATS TOTALS WERE- 2012 TOTAL- 1,620,985 TO 2016 TOTAL- 1,382,536
OR A REDUCTION OF 238,449.

OBSERVATION 4.
PENNSYLVANIA- 2012 ELECTION- TOTAL DEMOCRATIC/REPUBLICAN VOTES- 5,670,708.
2016 TOTAL- 5,897,174. A DIFFERENCE OF +226,466.
DEMOCRATS- 2012 TOTAL VOTES: 2,990,274 2016 TOTAL VOTES- 2,926,441= LOSS OF 63,833.
REPUBLICANS- 2012 TOTAL VOTES- 2,680,434 2016 TOTAL VOTES- 2,970,733= +290,299.

OBSERVATION 5.
MICHIGAN- 2012 TOTAL DEM/REP. VOTES: 4,679,825.
BREAKDOWN- 2,564,569 DEMOCRAT, 2,115,256 REPUBLICAN.

MICHIGAN- 2016 TOTAL DEM/REP. VOTES- 4,548,382.
BREAKDOWN- REPUBLICANS- 2,279,543
                             DEMOCRATS- 2,268,839
A REDUCTION OF 131,443 TOTAL VOTES BETWEEN 2012 AND 2016.

DEMOCRATS- LOST 295,730 VOTES BETWEEN 2012 AND 2016.
REPUBLICANS- GAINED 164,287.

REMEMBER, THESE DRAMATIC CHANGES IN ALL THREE STATES OCCURRED FOR A REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE WHOSE % OF TOTAL VOTES NATIONWIDE WAS LESS THAN
HIS PREDECESSOR. FURTHER, THE NUMBER OF VOTERS CASTING THEIR BALLOTS FOR EITHER THE DEMOCRATS OR REPUBLICANS WENT DOWN IN MICHIGAN AND WISCONSIN BETWEEN 2012 AND 2016.

TO BE CONTINUED...?





THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION- SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG. PART 2.



In part 1 , I laid out statistics that raise questions about the Validity of the election results in 3 States; MICHIGAN, PENNSYLVANIA, AND WISCONSIN. These States, and their Electoral Votes,
is where the outcome of the election rested. We will look at these results more closely, but first...

Hillary, Clinton, President, Woman, Leader, Leadership

A LITTLE MORE BACKGROUND INFO.

As I related in Part 1, Hillary Clinton won the Popular Vote by about 3 Million Votes, (2.87 Million). In the end, her percentage of the National Vote was 48.06% to Trumps 45.97%. TOTALS: CLINTON- 65,844,610, TRUMP- 62,979,636.

It is True that Trump accumulated 2.05 Million more votes than Mitt Romney did in 2012.
However, there were almost 8 Million more votes cast for President in 2016 than there were in 2012. 
(2012- 129,085,409     2016- 137,045,863)
This is why Trumps 45.97% was less than Romneys 47.20%.

Yes, Hillary Clinton did not get as many votes as Barack Obama did in 2012.
Here is the difference: Obama- 65,915,795, Clinton- 65,844,610. A Difference of 71,185 Votes.
These Numbers, in practical terms, are a wash. The Difference is so miniscule, that the totals 
would be considered one and the same. Like Romney/Trump, the increase in the total number of ballots from 2012- 2016 caused the difference in Percent of Votes Received Nationwide.

2012: Obama- 51.06%
2016: Clinton- 48.06%

So between 2012 and 2016, the Democrats saw a Decrease of 3%, the Republicans 1.23%
In the end, the Republicans increased their Percentage of the National Vote by less than 2%

These are hardly the Numbers of a POLITICAL REVOLUTION. IN REALITY, THERE WAS
NO REAL REJECTION OF HILLARY CLINTON, NOR A VAST AMOUNT OF INCREASED SUPPORT FOR REPUBLICANS BECAUSE OF DONALD TRUMP.

THIS IS NOT THE REAL STORY. THE REALITY OF THE 2016 ELECTION LIES ELSEWHERE...
STAY TUNED...





Presidential, 2016, American Flag











Now, you might might be thinking: "Well, what about the other States? I bet there were big changes elsewhere, and your just ignoring them."

Keep in mind that I have been focusing on MICHIGAN, PENNSYLVANIA, AND WISCONSIN, BECAUSE OF THEIR IMPORTANCE IN DETERMINING VICTORY IN THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE.  HOWEVER, I HAVE PURPOSEFULLY AVOIDED 3 OTHER STATES; FLORIDA, IOWA, AND OHIO, JUST TO SEE IF I WOULD GET ANY REACTION. I DID'NT, SO IN A FUTURE POST THE ANALYSIS WILL INCLUDE THESE STATES, BECAUSE OF THEIR IMPORTANCE IN THE OUTCOME OF THE 2016 ELECTION.

However, there are 44 other States. How did the TRUMP "REVOLUTION" AFFECT THEM?

Well, this was suppose to be a resurgence of "CONSERVATIVE IDEALS." In fact, Donald Trump
ran on A Mix of EXTREMIST BELIEFS THAT PROMOTED MISOGYNISTIC, XENOPHOBIC, AND RACIST ATTITUDES AMONG THE GENERAL PUBLIC, OFTEN UNDER A MASK OF RELIGIOUS ZEALOTRY. HOWEVER, THESE ATTITUDES AND BELIEFS SHOULD NOT BE ASSIGNED TO EVERY INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP JUST BECAUSE THEY MAY DISAGREE WITH PROGRESSIVE/LIBERAL IDEALS. TRUMP WENT FAR BEYOND WHAT TRUE CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE.

To be fair, let us start by looking at the 24 States who voted REPUBLICAN IN 2012 AND 2016.

Now, with Traditionally Blue States like MICHIGAN, PENNSYLVANIA, AND WISCONSIN SEEING GIGANTIC SHIFTS IN VOTER SUPPORT, RESULTING IN REPUBLICAN "VICTORIES", TRADITIONALLY RED STATES SHOULD HAVE SEEN EVEN LARGER TURNOUTS AND TRIUMPHS IN THEIR STATE ELECTIONS.

Uh, No.

In the case of the 24 States, TRUMP CARRIED A HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF THE REPUBLICAN VOTE IN 12 STATES, ROMNEY IN 11, WITH ONE STATISTICAL TIE.

This is a list of every STATE that Voted for the Republican Candidate for President in 2012 and 2016.
It is followed by which Candidate, ( ROMNEY- 2012, TRUMP- 2016), Received a higher % of the Republican Vote for that State.

ALABAMA- TRUMP: 62.08%.- 60.55%                      
ALASKA-  ROMNEY: 54.80%- 51.28%
ARIZONA- ROMNEY: 53.65%- 48.67%
ARKANSAS- TIE- 60.57%
GEORGIA- ROMNEY: 53.30%- 50.77%
IDAHO- ROMNEY: 64.53%- 59.26%
INDIANA- TRUMP: 56.82%- 54.13%
KANSAS- ROMNEY: 59.71%- 56.65%
KENTUCKY- TRUMP: 62.5%- 60.49%
LOUISIANA- TRUMP: 58.09%- 57.78%
MISSISSIPPI- TRUMP: 57.94%- 55.28%
MISSOURI- TRUMP: 56.77%- 53.76%
MONTANA- TRUMP: 56.17%- 55.35%
NEBRASKA- ROMNEY: 59.80%- 58.75%
NORTH CAROLINA- ROMNEY: 50.39%- 49.83%
NORTH DAKOTA- TRUMP: 62.96%- 58.32%
OKLAHOMA- ROMNEY: 66.77%- 65.32%
SOUTH CAROLINA- TRUMP: 54.94%- 54.56%
SOUTH DAKOTA- TRUMP: 61.53%- 57.89%
TENNESSEE- TRUMP: 60.72%- 59.48%
TEXAS- ROMNEY: 57.17%- 52.23%
UTAH- ROMNEY: 72.79%- 45.54%
WEST VIRGINIA- TRUMP: 68.63%- 62.30%
WYOMING- ROMNEY: 68.64- 67.40%

UTAHS LARGE MARGIN BETWEEN
2012- 72.79%, 2016- 45.54% COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED
BY THE 21.54% EARNED BY EVAN MCMULLEN (IND.)
IN 2016.

In the other 23 States, the LARGEST INCREASE in percent of the vote from
2012 ----- 2016: WEST VIRGINIA: + 6.33%.

THE LARGEST DECREASE 2012-----2016: IDAHO: - 5.27%.

REMEMBER THESE ARE "RED STATES." THERE ARE NO CHANGES,
STATISTICALLY, THAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED BEYOND NORMAL
PARAMETERS. DONALD TRUMPS CANDIDACY CAUSED NO UNUSUAL
CHANGES IN THE % OF PRO-REPUBLICAN VOTERS WHO TURNED OUT
FOR THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

HMMM!




THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION- SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG. PART 4.


Business, Idea, Style, Concept, Goals


Now that we have seen the % of Vote Totals when examining the results of the 24 states that voted Republican in the 2012 and 2016 Presidential Elections, let us now turn to the 20 States that voted Democrat, and see how the REPUBLICAN PARTY PERFORMED.

HERE ARE THE REPUBLICAN PARTIES % OF TOTAL VOTES FROM THESE STATE ELECTION RETURNS.

OREGON.                                42.15%                                  39.09%

RHODE ISLAND.                     35.24%                                  38.90%

VERMONT.                              30.97%                                  29.76%

VIRGINIA.                               47.28%                                  44.43%

WASHINGTON.                       41.29%                                 38.07%


From this list we find the following:

That Republican Party % of the Statewide Vote was
as follows:

12 States had a higher % of the Republican Vote in 2012. (MITT ROMNEY.)
 8 States had a higher % of the Republican Vote in 2016.  (DONALD TRUMP.)

These numbers provide more Insight in Evaluating the Degree to which
Donald Trumps Candidacy influenced the outcome of the 2016 election.

EXAMINING THE RESULTS OF THE 20 STATES THAT VOTED DEMOCRAT
FOR PRESIDENT IN 2012 AND 2016, WE ALSO FIND THAT;

THE BIGGEST GAIN FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY BETWEEN 2012-2016:

MAINE,  40.98%- 44.87%, OR AN INCREASE OF 3.89%

THE BIGGEST LOSS: CALIFORNIA- 37.12%- 31.62% OR A DECREASE OF 5.5%

In Fact, if we take all 44 States together: 24 States that Voted Republican, and the 20 that Voted
Democrat in both the 2012 and 2016 Elections:

In 23 States the Republicans had better results with Mitt Romney as the Candidate.*
In 20 States they had better results with Donald Trump as the Candidate.*
  1 Statistical Tie.*

* %  of  VOTES FOR REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE IN EACH STATE.

It is clear, from these numbers, that the claim of Donald Trump mobilizing vast numbers of
dissatisfied Voters to go the polls does not hold up, at least from the results of the 44 States that Voted either DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN IN BOTH ELECTIONS.

However, was the "OUTCOME" OF THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION DETERMINED
BY THE RESULTS FOUND IN THE 6 STATES THAT VOTED REPUBLICAN IN 2016,
SHIFTING THEIR SUPPORT FROM THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE THEY SUPPORTED
IN 2012.

How important are these 6 States? You need 270 Electoral Votes to win the Presidency. Here are
the Electoral Votes for these States; FLORIDA- 29, PENNSYLVANIA- 20, OHIO- 18,
MICHIGAN- 16, WISCONSIN- 10, IOWA- 6.

Now that we have seen the results from the other 44 States, what do the NUMBERS TELL US ABOUT
THE RESULTS IN THESE STATES?  ARE THERE "IRREGULARITIES" THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED?  SHOULD THE RESULTS FROM ANY, SOME, OR ALL OF THESE STATES BE CALLED INTO QUESTION?

House to vote on bill to prevent domestic terrorism in the wake of Buffalo mass shooting. CNN POLITICS.

 By Clare Foran, CNN

Updated 10:32 AM ET, Wed May 18, 2022


(CNN)The House of Representatives is expected to vote Wednesday on a bill aimed at preventing domestic terrorism and combating the threat of violent extremism by White supremacists.

The vote comes in the wake of a horrific mass shooting over the weekend at a supermarket in a predominately Black neighborhood in Buffalo, New York, that killed 10 people and wounded three others. The Justice Department is investigating the shooting as a hate crime and "an act of racially-motivated violent extremism."
Once the bill the House is taking up -- the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act of 2022 -- passes the chamber, it would next go to the Senate for consideration, where its fate is uncertain.
    Lawmakers are under pressure to take action in the wake of the tragedy in Buffalo, but the highly polarized partisan climate makes it unlikely that any significant policy changes will pass both chambers of Congress to be signed into law.
      Though Democrats control the House and the Senate, their majority in the Senate is not sufficiently large enough for them to enact most legislation on a party line vote and most Republicans remain steadfastly opposed to any kind of gun control bills.
        The Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act would set up offices specifically focused on domestic terrorism at the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice and the FBI.
        The offices would track and analyze domestic terrorist activity with the goal of better preparing the federal government to identify risks in order to take preventative action.
          The bill creates a requirement for biannual reporting on domestic terrorism threats. It also calls for assessments of the threat posed specifically by White supremacists and neo-Nazis.
          The measure is sponsored by Democratic Rep. Brad Schneider of Illinois. It has three Republican cosponsors: Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Don Bacon of Nebraska and Fred Upton of Michigan.
          It's not yet clear how much additional Republican support it may be able to get when it comes to a vote on the House floor.
          House Democratic leaders had planned to bring an earlier version of the bill to the floor in April, but the effort was derailed after progressive members objected to the measure, which they said could be used to target civil rights activists or left-leaning groups. House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said he believes those issues have been resolved.
          "We've worked out some of the concerns people have about civil liberties, which were legitimate concerns, and I think we've worked that out and I think we'll have agreement on that," Hoyer said during his weekly meeting with reporters.
          Earlier this week, Schneider called on the House to swiftly take up the bill in the aftermath the Buffalo shooting.
          "The rise of racially motivated violent extremism is a serious threat to Americans across the country," he said in a statement. "The Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act is what Congress can do this week to try to prevent future Buffalo shootings -- to prevent future California shootings, future El Paso shootings, future Charleston shootings, future Pittsburgh shootings, future Wisconsin shootings. We need to ensure that federal law enforcement has the resources they need to best preemptively identify and thwart extremist violence wherever the threat appears."
          The 18-year-old suspected of opening fire at a Buffalo supermarket on Saturday told authorities he was targeting the Black community, according to an official familiar with the investigation.
          The alleged gunman made disturbing statements describing his motive and state of mind following his arrest, the official said. The statements were clear and filled with hate toward the Black community. Investigators also uncovered other information from search warrants and other methods indicating the alleged shooter was "studying" previous hate attacks and shootings, the official said.
            Eleven of the people who were shot were Black, officials said. The victims range in age from 20 to 86, police said. Buffalo police identified all 13 victims Sunday. Among them were a former police officer who tried to stop the shooter, the octogenarian mother of the city's former fire commissioner and a long-term substitute teacher.
