That's not stealing the vote on election day. That's successful propagandizing. Different in kind from ballot and voting machine tampering.

It would be effective propaganda if it were honest but it was corrupt. It worked with America's enemies to divide and conquer with a minority of the popular vote. The EC has always been undemocratic. Even if it's being used exactly as intended. There is a reason no country has adopted it in their constitutions.

It is indeed a different kind of theft. A distinction without a difference imho.

If anyone is playing word games, and insulting conversants, it seems to me it is that person who is otherwise blogging under That's Another Fine Mess. Sorry, we are not going to subscribe to your mess.

You made an assumption about me that is not true (I grew up Democrat). And your ensuing ad hominem attacks make me uninterested in engaging with you further. I can get that on red state or huffpo and I'd engage you there. But I go to Bulwark to get away from that.
