My brother Brian and I were discussing the strange election results, and why we suspect foul play in the popular vote:

I think the fact the Democrats failed to make any gains on down ballot races suggests they actually lost the popular vote too; why would someone vote Hillary and not for the guy running for Governor, or Congress? Hillary's supposed lead in the popular vote is likely stolen votes.

Brian replied:

Just like 2000, when Bush was leading all night in the national popular vote, and then, voila, Gore inched ahead at 3:00 AM Central time. When they finished tallying the votes, minus the military and other absentee ballots, suddenly Gore was up by 537,000 votes nationwide. Does that sound fishy to you?!

And indeed we have seen this in a monotonously repetitive way through the years. Obama won in 2012 by winning over 100% in a number of Pennsylvania precincts, for instance, which pushed him over the top early in the election. And it is interesting to note that in this last election Virginia was going for Trump until the last counties came in - all of which were the Democrat strongholds outside of Washington. Funny how Democrats are such slow counters! Ditto Florida, where notoriously inept and liberal Broward county came in at the tail end; it's as if someone waits to see how many votes their candidate will need before submitting their tally.

I suspect the entire margin of popular votes going for Hillary were stolen. I believe this was Trump's night all around.

Sore, sore, sore losers! And they aren't going to grit their teeth and bear it, either. The plan is to deligitimize Trump by protesting and refusing to cooperate with him - and to go after all of his people. This was an old Democrat tactic used first against Richard Nixon; The Democrats and their media allies pursued first Spiro Agnew, setting the stage for the ultimate assault on Nixon himself. They tried this with Reagan too, going after men like James Watts, Borking Robert Bork, attacking numerous others in Reagan's camp. They want a feeling of corruption to taint the Presidency itself, and hopefully, as in the case of Richard Nixon, to taint the President personally. They could never have gotten to Nixon if they hadn't first gotten to his associates.

So when attacks come after Steve Bannon or, more importantly, Trump's children and son-in-law, they are following the strategy employed against Nixon, with the hopes of reaping the same reward. And having taken Chris Christie out of the equation in this manner they are emboldened to grab for the brass ring.

The fight has just begun.
