If the American People Elect Him Again, He is Our President (Courts Be Damned...)
I think we should make this clear now, because if they tried to deny the People's Choice in voting, I can imagine the hell this country would go through...
Let's just hope it is a convincing win, either way, no matter who the two candidates end up being, so long as it's an honest election and the American voters get to make their choice.

I saw Trump at a rally in 2016 in Sumter, SC. This was still early in the campaign and media narrative was that Trump was a clown show and this was nothing more than an opportunity to make fun of rubes. It had all of the accessories of any normal campaign, lots of posters, buttons, pins, hawksters, an older woman in a too short skirt and her star spangled boots. There was even a guy there in a superman cape.
Before Trump got there and after he left the stage, there were media combing through the crowd. Without trying I could hear the questions they were asking. "Why do you support Trump?" And there were lots of answers, "Because I want my children to be able to get jobs." "Because we need to bring back manufacturing." "Because Sumter SC has a problem with illegal immigrants." One person, in a trucker's cap went at length at how the Chinese were manipulating their currency and impacting American exports. This reporter was being given the how to from a bubba in a trucker's cap. One reporter asked about Trump being against immigration and three different time three different rednecks corrected the reports saying that he was against "illegal immigration." It did not matter, the press had a story to write and none of those answers I heard were reported in any of the media as I scoured it the next day.
That rally of significantly working class people had a better collective understanding of the issues of the 2016 campaign than the press corps following candidate Trump.
