Trump’s absurd charge that Clinton raised $60 million in July from just 20 people “You know, numbers just came out for her [Hillary Clinton] where she raised like $50 or $60 million and 20 people gave it. I think it was — let’s see, 20 people gave her $60 million in her fund. $60 million from 20 people. I want to get a list of those 20 people. Oh, those 20 people, I want to find out who they are, I want to find out how many I know. But I’ll tell you what, 20 people gave her $60 million. And that’s what I’ve been saying, folks. Look, I know the game better than anybody and the game is played that way. They own her. They own her.” — Donald Trump, remarks at a rally in Ashburn, Va., Aug. 2, 2016 August 4, 2016 https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact-checker/wp/2016/08/04/trumps-absurd-charge-that-clinton-raised-60-million-in-july-from-just-20-people/ [with comments]

Clint Eastwood Rips ‘Pussy Generation,’ Says He’ll Vote For Donald Trump
Of all the dangerous things Donald Trump has said, perhaps the most concerning is his assertion that the election might be rigged. This irresponsible, unsupported suggestion augurs poorly for Trump’s behavior in the increasingly likely event of his loss.
Those comments set the stage for an explosive outcome the likes of which this country has never seen. It is not far-fetched to imagine Trump inciting his partisans against accepting the verdict of voters, further inflaming an already toxic political climate in Washington.
As much as Republicans sought to ensure President Obama’s failure from the moment of his election, their animus toward a President Hillary Clinton would be that much greater — even without Trump piling on. Clinton would enter office as a more divisive figure; after all, the GOP argument that she is disqualified to hold the office, whether by virtue of Benghazi or emails, preceded Trump’s “Crooked Hillary” attack.
If Clinton is elected, Republicans will have been shut out of the White House for three elections in a row, for the first time since 1948. And if Democrats retake control of the Senate, Republicans eyeing the 2018 map [ http://www.rollcall.com/news/home/for-democrats-2018-senate-math-is-daunting ] — when 25 Democrats (and independents caucusing with Democrats) and only eight Republicans face reelection — would have every incentive to impede Clinton’s initiatives. They would try to make her not just a one-term president but a two-year one.
Add to this predictable ugliness a losing nominee who rouses supporters with assertions that the election was somehow stolen from him and you have a recipe for turmoil of a most un-American variety.
Just how un-American can be judged by looking to Al Gore’s gracious concession to George W. Bush. The Democratic nominee had won the popular vote; he had every reason to believe that, but for a botched election and a butterfly ballot in Florida, he would have won the electoral college majority as well.
The president “lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election. We should have a revolution in this country,” Trump proclaimed, although Obama in fact won both the popular vote and the electoral college. A few minutes later: “The phoney [sic] electoral college made a laughing stock out of our nation. The loser one!” A few minutes later: “We should march on Washington and stop this travesty.”
Trump notwithstanding, the election was not “a total sham.” The electoral college, for better or worse, is specified in the Constitution. Calling for revolution? Imagine what Trump might do when the loser is himself.
Georgia Republican quits as a member of the electoral college because he can't bring himself to vote for Trump Donald Trump, speaking at a rally in Florida last night, was described by Baoky Vu as being responsible for 'despicable demaoguery'. Baoky Vu, a businessman from Decatur, says he cannot vote for Trump Georgia one of 21 states which allow electors to vote for other candidates But he has now resigned and the GOP is looking for a replacement 3 August 2016 Updated: 4 August 2016 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3722651/Georgia-GOP-elector-resigns-anti-Trump-comments.html [with comments]
