    Default December 19, ANOTHER day that may live in infamy ...

    Donald Trump has not yet won the election.

    The electoral college is scheduled to meet on Dec. 19.

    The Founders intended the electoral college to provide a buffer against a demigod obtaining U.S. presidential office.

    One suggestion:
    The electoral college electors should sidestep the disaster of a Trump administration, and instead vote for some other candidate; former Republican presidential candidate John Kasich for example.

    If you were a voting member of the electoral college, what would you do?

    John Kasich Is an Interventionist Nightmare

    The rational "moderate" wants to overthrow Assad, wage a "massive" war against ISIS, punch Russia in the nose, green-light pre-emptive strikes against North Korea and maybe Iran, and give government access to your cell phone...
    but it's all good because he expanded Medicaid and isn't Donald Trump

    Kasich may be bad.

    Is Trump any better?

    One Minuteman U.S. ICBM has more explosive power than all the munitions used by all sides in WWII; Allies, Axis, including the nukes dropped on Japan; combined.

    And we're jamming this guy's trigger finger on "THE BUTTON" of WWII times holy cow?! Commander in Chief of the entire U.S. military arsenal?

    - uh oh -

    Grind has offered bets on that. You should take him up on it.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    Trump lost the vote by millions of ballots. What's your point?

    "Join Team Bucky

    You're welcome to translate this. I don't understand the intended meaning. But I can rule out "Bucky" = Trump
    as he's already got several members on his team, including Pence and
    "When this fails, you will cry IMPEACHMENT every other day

    You are traitors to this country"
    I don't recall having considered impeachment since the Nixon administration. In any case, I'm singular, not plural. I know of no one less a traitor than I am.

    You're welcome to post a facsimile of his al Qaida membership card.

    And you get bonus points for posting proof a Kasich administration would be more detrimental to the United States of America than a Trump administration.
