It's Ballots, NOT Votes, That Count

Another day ending in "y", another unhinged rant from NeverTrump Weber.  This time, he chose "suburban housewives" as the reason Trump cannot ever win anything ever again.

He's wrong, of course.

...To become president, Trump must win a bunch of swing states.  To win each state he needs more ballots in his pile than the other guy.  It’s baked into the data -- which we look at every day -- that Trump is not going to win those swing states.  None of them.

It’s not his fault.  He will probably get more votes, just not more ballots....

Maybe that is too complex for Jay, but my readers get it.

Valentine essays on the total corruption of Arizona, where people vote while living in hotels and vacant lots.  In Michigan, where people registered 17 times--and sent in ballots for every one.   Here in Wisconsin, there are 3 million "voters" who are no longer active.  Will the county clerks remove their names?  (HINT:  Not in Dane, Brown, Racine, Kenosha, and Milwaukee Counties, and probably not in LaCrosse or EauClaire Counties, either.)  Nevada?  More "voters" living in vacant lots!

...Voter fraud will screw you on election day!

Why?  Political consultants make money on ad placements and retainers -- not by dealing with baked-in fraud. If the RNC spent as much on election fraud remediation in each swing state as it did on flowers and booze, Trump might win some of these states. If the Trump campaign paid attention to the election integrity teams and took seriously the threat of election commission-instigated fraud, it could make a difference.

Unfortunately, the RNC is about raising dough and having elaborate meetings with mediocre minds.  The Trump campaign thinks rallies, flags, and red hats can overcome the Left’s complete control of election apparatus....

Note well:  Valentine, too, has an agenda; he's the one who compares real-life addresses to "voter" rolls.  He would be the one who fingers thousands of UW students as "NOT RESIDENTS"--but they will vote anyway.

Weber may be right that Trump loses.  He's wrong about why.

Given what we know--and what Weber chooses to ignore due to his game of footsie with Vos and Priebus--the Republicans could run Lincoln again---and lose.
