Now there's a thought that never entered my mind and when explored, it makes a lot of sense. Could it be that DJT and Rudy have been doing the old Ali rope-a-dope
routine with the whole Secretary of State thing? I'm sure that Comey could be "convinced" to step aside for Rudy. Rudy and Sessions would have a straight shot at
Hillary even if Obama does give her a pardon. There has got to be a lot of junk in her trunk that any sparklemuffin pardon would miss.
Maybe, just maybe, Hillary may find it necessary to greatly increase the quantity of her Depends order.

Stay tuned.......................

This is a top billed story here in Canada because of course the press hate Trump.
What is missing of course is that if we accept this narrative, then the Russians had better polling ability than any of the US firms, since we know that nobody in the US expected Trump to win, but somehow the Russians knew he had a chance.
Furthermore, we have to accept that the exposure of corruption by the Russians was bad, but the corrupt actions, and the concealment of the same corruption was somehow acceptable.

Well, because the US government through the CIA has NEVER 'assisted' or influenced the election of any official in any country that may have been been friendly to the US....

Is anybody claiming the Rooskies hacked the voting machines, or just that they exposed Shrillary and her supporters and let them hang themselves with their own words?

It seems that every time there's a reference to the hacking, there's the strong implication that actual votes were stolen, but so far it's just more shit for the False News file. No votes stolen.

The article deals with the issue of hacked emails and wikileaks. There is no mention of vote tampering.

So, they influenced the election by making sure the truth was out there? Okay by me...if in fact the whole thing is true.

The Left is trying to allude that the two are tied together. I don't think they will come out and say that the Russians hacked the votes, but they want to leave that impression for their rabid base.

All this "hacking" crap is an attempt by the democrats to reassure their base that Trump is somehow "illegitimate". No more, no less. The same thing with the Clinton Crime Family's recount efforts. I don't believe for ONE SECOND that the whackjob Stein though of this. She is wholly funded and propped up by Clinton surrogates for one reason - so they can say Trump "really didn't win". He somehow "stole" the election. Funny thing is I think his reelection in 4 years will be by an even bigger landslide. Wonder how they will spin that one.

I think it is also important to point out that CEOs at this level are accustomed to dealing with a lot of foreign nations and already have a good understanding of the differing cultures. This puts people like Mulally well ahead of the most recent Secretaries of State.

Trump to interview former Ford CEO Alan Mulally for secretary of state

A top source in the Trump transition team tells Fox News that President-elect Trump will be interviewing Alan Mulally as a possibility for the position of Secretary of State. The transition team later confirmed that Trump will be meeting with Mulally today.

Mulally is the former CEO of Ford—and before that of Boeing.

Fox News' Chris Wallace and John Roberts contributed to this report.

I don't know anything about this gentleman ... anyone?


Mulally would possibly be a great choice (though I am not familiar enough with the Secretary's requirements to know) for anything which involves financials and management.

Did a lot of studying on his techniques at Boeing and how, at the executive level, he was able to translate those leadership skill to Ford.

NBC reporting that Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson to be Secretary of State

President-elect Donald Trump has picked Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson as secretary of state, sources close to the Trump transition told NBC's Andrea Mitchell.

The transition sources noted nothing is final until the president-elect announces it, but told Mitchell this will likely become official next week.

Unless the state does voting by Internet (I don't think any do), actual hacking of the voting machines ad hoc is not possible because they are not connected to the Internet. It is, of course, possible to alter their programming before they are put into service, but proper testing of them should reveal such tampering.

This is what cracks me up the most. Clinton (er, Stein) wants us to believe that the Russians sent HUNDREDS of agent to multiple states to "hack" a bunch of old (think Atari 2600) voting machines. I read a quote from one of her lawyers to the effect that just because the machines aren't connected to the internet does't mean you can't hack them from a remote site. LOL really???

I know that, too. I'm asking about allegations that the Russians hacked votes, not reality. The Left doesn't deal in reality, just allegations.

fishing in Wisconsin:

Subject: Fishing

How do you settle a presidential election when the vote is too close to call?

With a fishing contest in northern Wisconsin in January, of course!

After the first round of votes were counted, Hillary and Donald were deadlocked. Instead of going through a recount, they agreed to a week-long ice fishing contest to settle the election. Whoever caught the most fish at the end of the week would be the President.

They decided that a remote frozen lake in northern Wisconsin would be the ideal place. No observers on the fishing grounds, but both would need to have their catches verified and counted each night at 5 PM.

After Day 1, Trump returned with a total of 10 fish, Hillary came back with nothing.

Day 2 finished, and Trump caught another 20 fish, but Hillary once again came back with nothing.

That night, Hillary and her cronies got together and accused Trump of being a “low-life, cheating’ son-of-a-gun.” Instead of fishing on Day 3, they were going to follow and to spy on him and figure out how he was cheating.

Day 3 finished up and Trump had an incredible day, adding 50 fish to his total!

That night, Hillary and her democratic cohorts got together for the full report on how Donald was cheating. Hillary stood up to give her report and said, “You are not going to believe this, he’s cutting holes in the ice!”

And this story, tells you all you need to know about the difference between a successful businessman and a career government politician.
