The Bloviating Bullsh*ting Burbank Barrister, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA)Rep. Adam Schiff, who heads up the House Intelligence Committee, has power and influence despite his constant leaks and lies. He was recently interviewed on Bill Maher’s Real Time on HBO. Maher, a far-left hack, asked shifty-Schiff about the U.S. Constitution. Maher, who hates religion, prefaced his questions by mentioning that many Americans think that Jesus delivered the Constitution. Schiff ending voting rights
I’m not sure if Maher really believes people are this stupid, or that he was making a point while being overly dramatic and insulting to Jesus and all those who believe in Him. Probably the latter.
Well, Mr. Maher, we don’t think Jesus delivered the Constitution, but we DO think that people of faith influenced it – and that is what makes the Constitution one of the greatest documents ever written. It is also what makes the United States of America, the greatest country ever conceived of in the world.
The Constitution is not outdated, as Maher suggests in his opening remarks to Schiff. The real issue here is that Maher, Schiff, Pelosi, Schumer, and others want to rewrite the Constitution – or eliminate it altogether because it restrains them from enacting all the socialist changes to America that they desire to do.
Adam Schiff brazenly answered Maher’s question on the Constitution by saying that he favors amending it. One of those amendments would be to eliminate the Electoral College. You can listen to Schiff expound on that at Breitbart News (VIDEO).
Removing the Electoral College (in favor of a popular vote) is serious, like a magnitude 10 earthquake serious. I won’t here go into how the Electoral College functions (you can read about that here), suffice it to say that the majority of the votes cast throughout the physical United States would NOT count. Elections would be mostly determined by the votes of five big states New York, California, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Illinois. For example, in 2016, Hillary won those five states by a total of 8.4 million. Trump one the rest of the country by 5.5 million. If the electoral college is eliminated, the 45 smaller states will no longer matter to national candidates.
The electoral college was created to prevent what James Madison called “the tyranny of the majority.” The system of electing a president as set up in the constitution is carefully balanced to safeguard the rights of both the majority and the minority.
But the Democrats disagree. They tell us and are telling us that ridding the constitution of that safeguard will make Presidental Elections fairer. This is a blatant bald-faced lie, and they know it. Ever hear of the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact? This is a serious business—the liberals’ way of changing the presidential election rules without amending the constitution.
Seeing is believing, right?
Notice the largest part of the map is RED? The red and blue areas represent votes. The assumption looking at the map would be that the candidate affiliated with the red area is the winner, right?
WRONG
In a so-called popular vote, the winner of the election would be the candidate affiliated with the area in BLUE, you know, the rather small area of the U.S.? The BLUE area has the most population, so they win, always. The Blue areas are ruled by liberal far-left Democrats. Republicans would lose the presidential elections EVERY year in a popular vote – guaranteed. The Democrats are well aware of this fact.
The same principle holds true with Democrats wanting to pack the Supreme Court. They would “rule” the court. In a fair fight, election, court, etc., the Democrats stand a chance of losing, just like the rest of us. That is fair; that is the way it should be. That is why the Founding Fathers designed the Constitution (including the Electoral College) the way they did.
It is not that the Constitution is old and outdated; it is still protecting us today. THAT is the entirety of the problem. Dismiss or eliminate that protection, and Adam shifty-Schiff and his pals can do whatever they want – with complete impunity, including bringing about socialism.
This is why this election really is serious. This election really is about freedom. It isn’t about Donald Trump. It’s all about whether or not We the People value our freedom. Or if you don’t value your freedom, you are ok with overreaching laws, lockdowns, forced compliance when the government thinks it’s needed, no freedom of the press, voter suppression, Orwellian censorship on social media and YouTube, etc., socialism, forced vaccinations, school indoctrination, and much more – then, by all means, vote Democrat.
Just remember, we will all reap what we as a country sow. We are all in this together, like it or not.
If the Democrats gain power and make these changes, the few will rule the many. This is already happening. It will get much worse if Trump is taken out of the way.
As I said, it’s not about Trump. Trump is nowhere near perfect. But Trump fights for our freedom.
Democrats want to take it away.
