The Electoral College: Set Up to Protect Slavery, Today Enforcing White Supremacy
Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by about 2.5 million votes. But the Electoral College decides who becomes president. And the Electoral College will—if things remain on course—make Donald Trump the next president.
What is the Electoral College? In short, it is an institution that was set up to protect slavery and one that continues today to be an instrument for enforcing white supremacy.
Trump's Team of Theocrats, War Criminals, Ghouls, & Neo-Nazis
If Donald Trump is allowed to take office he will put in place a cabal of
- Christian fundamentalist theocrats...
- War criminals who have signed on to torture and murder innocent children...
- Ghoulish enemies of public education, housing, and the environment...
- Christian fundamentalists who want to force women into roles that would be a flip image of what women are subjected to under Islamic fundamentalist regimes...
- And his chief strategist and senior counselor who brags about providing a platform for neo-Nazis.
