OOH MY WHAT STATISTICS
A 39 second Must Read you will want to pass on.
In their infinite wisdom, the United States’ Founders created the Electoral College to ensure the STATES were fairly represented. Why should one or two densely populated areas speak for the whole of the nation?
The following list of statistics has been making the rounds on the Internet. It should finally put an end to the argument as to why the Electoral College makes sense.
Do share this. It needs to be widely known and understood.
There are 3,141 counties in the United States.
Trump won 3,084 of them.
Clinton won 57.
There are 62 counties in New York State.
Trump won 46 of them.
Clinton won 16.
Clinton won the popular vote by approx. 1.5 million votes.
In the 5 counties that encompass NYC, (Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Richmond & Queens) Clinton received well over 2 million more votes than Trump. (Clinton only won 4 of these counties; Trump won Richmond)
Therefore these 5 counties alone, more than accounted for Clinton winning the popular vote of the entire country.
These 5 counties comprise 319 square miles.
The United States is comprised of 3,797,000 square miles.
When you have a country that encompasses almost 4 million square miles of territory, it would be ludicrous to even suggest that the vote of those who inhabit a mere 319 square miles should dictate the outcome of a national election.
Large, densely populated Democrat cities (NYC, Chicago, LA, etc.) DO NOT and SHOULD NOT speak for the rest of our country!
And…it’s been verified and documented that those aforementioned 319 square miles are where the majority of our nation’s problems foment.
Well worth the 39 seconds to read? Now please pass it on!
Trump Just Ended Obama’s Vacation Scam.
He was going to stick us for 2.1 billion or so.
Before Obama left office, he arranged with the State Department for a
series of “official visits” to foreign countries, spanning the next 20
years.
Using discretionary funds from the Office of Presidential Visits and Vacations,
Obama was able to weasel what would have been another $2.1 billion in
free vacations for him and up to 24 members of his family plus staff
and a dog sitter until the year 2036.
He would have, that is, had he not lost his office to Donald Trump.
Trump, who is always looking for ways to save money, was having the
office used for vacations repainted when he was presented with a
ledger that contained all of the Obama travel plans and expenses.
The ledger was found by one of the workers Trump hired from outside
the typical White House staff to make alterations.
Trump immediately canceled the plans and recalled all Secret Service
agents scheduled to protect the Obamas anywhere outside of the United
States. The Obamas are also facing another new challenge at the hands of Trump.
They’re going to have to repay the government for all of those
vacations that weren’t official state business.
The bill, after some small allowances, for days that were possibly
work related, is for $214 million.
Of the 692 days the Obamas spent on vacation, almost none included any
work at all. They ate, slept and golfed and Michelle was given
shopping allowances from the Office of Discretionary Gifting Funds,
which is supposed to be used to buy presents for visiting dignitaries.
It’s just one scandal after another with these people.
Share this. Keep draining the swamp, President Trump.

Trump’s INSPIRING speech last night masterfully revealed the far-left radicals in Congress. He made several unifying points that garnered support from both parties and even the mainstream media! But despite his attempt to bring the country together, far leftists like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders REFUSED to show support for Trump’s stand that we will never be a socialist country, not killing late-term babies, and protecting innocent life from deadly crimes committed by illegal aliens. Not only are these radicals dividing our nation, but the bitterness these leftist radicals sow is preventing America from enjoying this period of immense American prosperity. Trump’s speech offered a glimmer of hope for a positive future.
