All the reports of rigging --electronic voting machines flipping votes, voters bussed around to vote multiple times, voters casting ballots without showing ID, ballots counted secretly and the counts withheld as long as possible on election night, impaired elderly voters being helped, ballots cast in the name of dead voters, and ballots cast by illegal aliens, all --ALL, without exception, indicated prior to election day that the cheating favored Clinton.
The suggestion, the meme, that cheating favored Trump was issued only after Clinton lost. If you subtract the estimated 3 million illegal alien votes, and 4 million names found on the voter rolls of dead voters, Trump won the real popular vote by a 60-57 margin. This is without even considering vote-flipping et cetera. My estimate would be that, if all these are considered, Trump won the popular vote about 64-53. A Trump landslide.
There is zero chance that the Electoral College will be abolished, because it would require a Constitutional amendment. This would require not only passage by a Republican-controlled Congress but also ratification by 2/3 of the state legislatures. But 2/3 of the state legislatures are at present majority Republican.
In fact, if the Republicans win just one more state legislature, while keeping their current control of the White House, Senate, and House, then the Republicans will be able to pass any Constitutional amendment they please and the Democrats will be powerless to stop them.
Some possibilities for amendments:
--seize all television and Internet media, for redistribution to the individual states. Put ABC, NBC, CBS, NPR, Fox, Google, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon video, and Netflix all out of business.
--mandate the right of Federal election authorities to examine and publish birth, educational, and other public records now under the control of states.
--declare all Federal student loan debt null and void.
--prohibit money from being distributed directly to educational institutions by the Federal government.
--nationalize health care, with a voucher system and no restrictions on choice of provider.
--end H1B visas.
--freeze all immigration.
--revoke the citizenship of all anchor babies going back 20 years and deport them.
--institute mandatory military service.
--repeal all Federal affirmative-action and discrimination laws.
--abolish the Federal Reserve and break up the big banks into separate insurance, investment, commercial banking, and consumer banking companies.
--outlaw option trading and impose a 0.5% tax on all trading transactions, to put an end to high-frequency trading.
--end deficit spending.
--inaugurate a guaranteed minimum personal income.
--abolish Federal taxes on personal income.
--mandate a return to bullion-backed currency.
--end all foreign aid.
