Trump: "Electoral College. I got 306! They were sooooo wrong in their election coverage."

So funny! I just checked out Fake News CNN, for the first time in a long time (they are dying in the ratings), to see if they covered my takedown yesterday of Jim Acosta (actually a nice guy). They didn’t! But they did say I already lost in my meeting with Putin. Fake News......

....Remember, it was Little Jeff Z and his people, who are told exactly what to say, who said I could not win the election in that “there was no way to 270” (over & over again) in the Electoral College. I got 306! They were sooooo wrong in their election coverage. Still hurting!

When he says "I," he strictly means him (primarily) and possibly his family (secondarily), not the U.S. So when he says that "I" won't "lose" to Putin, he means himself. The U.S., democracy, and our alliances will lose ground to Putin, but Trump will make out like a bandit. His whole presidency is just a cash-grab, aided by his judicial nominees (all there to help make the super-rich become mega-rich). So he'll sell us all out.

As far as his electoral "victory," he should really start giving Putin some credit. "I got 306" should be "Vlad and I got 306." Obviously no one in the world except Putin and wingnut extremists here (in the minority) want this idiot and his cabal in power.
