But what they really are hoping is that Trump doesn\u2019t get to 270, which means the election goes to the House, and the Republicans in the House would elect Trump and it would be over, but that wouldn\u2019t be the story.&nbsp; The story would be Trump lost the popular vote, Trump lost the Electoral College, somehow ended up president.&nbsp; Why, we\u2019ve just been screwed.&nbsp; And that\u2019s the narrative for four years, or however long it takes \u2019em to impeach Trump.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Make no mistake about any of this.&nbsp; They know they lost the election.&nbsp; They know they\u2019re not gonna win any elections any time soon.&nbsp; They\u2019ve just been shellacked at the state and local level.&nbsp; They don\u2019t have a presidential bench.&nbsp; They\u2019ve got Joe Biden.&nbsp; The idea of winning elections is something that &#8212; they\u2019re gonna lose the Supreme Court, and that was crucial to them to continue the cultural rot that they had been engaged in and sponsoring.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So this is all they know.&nbsp; This has been the modus operandi of the Democrat Party.&nbsp; It\u2019s not advance the nation and build people and grow the economy and grow anything.&nbsp; There\u2019s nothing positive in it.&nbsp; There\u2019s nothing uplifting about it.&nbsp; Everything with them is dire consequences, doom and gloom.&nbsp; Everybody\u2019s a victim of something.&nbsp; Everybody\u2019s getting screwed by something.&nbsp; Everybody\u2019s getting screwed by somebody.&nbsp; Everybody\u2019s getting savaged.&nbsp; Nobody\u2019s getting a fair treatment.&nbsp; Nobody\u2019s getting a fair shake, except the rich and the enemies of the Democrats.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The strategy that they use is to destroy their opponents, not build up themselves.&nbsp; And they\u2019re gonna continue doing this because it\u2019s all they know.&nbsp; They\u2019re even fundraising to set up new organizations to keep this strategy and these tactics underway.&nbsp; As I say, the one big difference here is that this is not your usual Republican that they\u2019re trying to take out.&nbsp; This is Donald Trump.&nbsp; And Trump has to be learning more and more every day who his liberal New York friends really are now and who other liberal people are.&nbsp; He\u2019s getting a firsthand seat, front-row seat at who these people really are and who they have always been.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_131852\" class=\"img_right\" align=\"right\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/621174352_large.jpg\"\/><line xmlns:tmp=\"http:\/\/ez.no\/namespaces\/ezpublish3\/temporary\/\">I have no doubt in my mind what their objective is.&nbsp; And this fake news story about Russia hacking, the way it started, the way it got picked up, the way it\u2019s been amplified now, I just resent having to come in here and defend it, so I\u2019ve decided to go about it a different way.&nbsp; Instead of defend it, I\u2019m attacking them and their motives and their facts and their agenda.&nbsp; &#8216;Cause I figure we don\u2019t need defending.&nbsp;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>We didn\u2019t do anything here except win an election, and that doesn\u2019t need to be defended.&nbsp; It doesn\u2019t need to be explained.&nbsp; It needs to be acted upon.&nbsp; It needs to be realized. It needs to be confirmed, affirmed, and built upon.&nbsp; In the old days, the Republicans, after they won elections and the Democrats acted this way, the Republicans would cave and extend the hand of friendship like giving them an extra vote in the Senate so things would be fair and equal or any number of other similar type things to try to prove that they were cooperative and could work together and make Washington work, and it just led to disaster.&nbsp;
