If there is one thing the right is good at, it is irony.

Mountain out of molehills? He stomps on them? Lol. C'mon - nobody believes that. This guy is p-e-t-t-y.

Meet President Donald J. Trump. He never met a molehill he didn't like.

Bam - backfire on Dems who rely on illegal votes. Guy is a genius.
Sure. Brilliant!

Delegitimize your own election while being as petty, foolish and insecure as possible.

All Trump is doing is making people think--'well, gee--if he is saying this election was not legitimate, maybe he didn't really win!'

Your president is a loser.
Only in what passes for the minds of left wing liberals so blinded by their hate of the man they can't see straight.

3,500,000 illegal voter.

There were 113,754 polling places in 2004. The current number is probably somewhere around there still.

That means that there was an average of 31 illegal voters at every polling station.

On average at least 2.6 illegal voters showed up and voted every hour at every poll.

Does that really even make sense to any of you?

I just don't understand the continued harping about this. There is no "ribbon" for 2nd place in the Presidential Election. Hillary lost. Trump won. Trump is the POTUS. It is SO simple I would think it would be a cinch for a "highly educated" liberal to grasp!

"Two people familiar with the meeting said Trump spent about 10 minutes at the start of the bipartisan gathering rehashing the campaign. He also told them that between 3 million and 5 million illegal votes caused him to lose the popular vote."

Said as the meeting with congressional leader, just last evening... Geez, folks, can't he get past it? So, he didn't win the popular vote. BFD Doesn't he realize that bringing.up.tiny.little.things just makes him look petty, and not just a little loony tunes?

Without evidence, Trump tells lawmakers 3 million to 5 million illegal ballots cost him the popular vote

"Trump himself, whose ascent to the White House seems to have only heightened his acute sensitivity to criticism.

This account of Trump’s tumultuous first days in office comes from interviews with nearly a dozen senior White House officials and other Trump advisers and confidants, some of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe private conversations and moments."

The first days inside Trump

This whole thing would be pretty laughable, if it weren't the behavior of the president.of.the.United.States
Yup. That's an albatross hung around his neck, and it's going to drive him crazy.

Well, crazier. I should have said crazier. Expect more Tweets.

Thank you.
Very good and realistic analysis.
This needs to be cleaned up before the next election.

California driver licenses given to 800,000 undocumented immigrants

Quote:
Two years after the implementation of AB 60 on Jan. 1, 2015, an estimated 806,000 undocumented residents have received driver’s licenses, according to Department of Motor Vehicles statistics this month. About 14,000 of these licenses were issued in November alone, the DMV said...

...Critics also point to another state “motor-voter” law, AB 1461, that starting in 2017 will automatically register most licensed California drivers to vote, arguing it could lead to election fraud if non-citizens barred from voting in federal elections become registered...
"Undocumented residents" while claiming that they need to document who they are. So either they are not identifying who they are and CA is handing out licenses to people without any type of verification, or CA is lying by calling them "undocumented residents" because they ARE documented, but are here ILLEGALLY.

Correct:

Quote:
...To qualify for a driver’s license under AB 60, applicants must prove their identity and residency in California; pass the written exam and a driving test; submit thumbprints and show proof of insurance, among other requirements. AB 60 licenses are marked with the words, “federal limits apply.” They have language on them indicating that the card is for driving purposes only and may not be used for identification.
Here's what it looks like:

Here's what a normal CA DL looks like:

(Mine doesn't have a second photo...so these are a little dated, otherwise, it's the same.)

Sounds all neat and fun, until you remember that people make false documents/fake passports all the time. What should have happened is that those illegals (undocumented workers...awww, what a feel good term, too bad it's incorrect), those people who have NO RIGHT to be in this country, were rounded up and deported. That's what should have happened.

I don't want to hear a single leftist b**** and moan about EPA, or how Trump is going to pollute everything, or even talk about "environmentalism" and "global warming" or whatever they're calling it now, when they have NO problems letting in millions of illegals in to this country. If the left truly gave a damn about our environment, they would be right on board with deporting every last one of them.
