This is at least the 28th time as president that Trump has said Clinton earned 223 electoral votes rather than the 232 she actually earned.
Trump had two “faithless electors,” Clinton five. So the earned count was 306 to 232, the final count 304 to 227.
If Trump is giving himself 306, as he always does, the comparison number for Clinton is 232. If he wants to give himself 304, he can cite her 227, but he wants to have his 306 and eat it too. Theee end

Trump says "there's a lot of pressure on Turkey." He says Obama "created a natural war" between Turkey and the PKK (?). He says, "I've told Turkey that if they do anything outside of what we would think is humane...they could suffer the wrath of an extremely decimated economy."
Trump is taking sole credit for defeating the ISIS caliphate ("I took it over"). He says he wanted ISIS fighters and families to go back to Europe, "and they said no no no." He says "they're so used to the United States being a sucker, being a fool."
Trump on European countries' refusal to take back their ISIS nationals: "Maybe they won't be saying no now, I don't know."

Trump is giving a speech to another Turning Point USA event at the White House, the Young Black Leadership Summit. Candace Owens, of the remarks about Hitler among other remarks, is speaking before him.
Trump congratulates the young black conservatives for standing up to what he calls "oppressive forces" that "demand conformity and control."
Trump praises Turning Point's Charlie Kirk and Candace Owens, saying of Owens that she's very tough and -- even though he's not allowed to say this in "the Me Too generation" -- beautiful.

Trump spoke to reporters at length in a chopper session before his departure to Walter Reed. Tweets here.

Trump gave a congratulatory handshake to a reporter who mentioned to him that the Washington Post fact-checker gave Adam Schiff "Four Pinocchios" for a claim about the whistleblower.

1) OK let's talk Turkey.
2) Here is the spreadsheet where I'll put information that is date-specific. Let's see if that works as a supplement to the thread.

We have to look into reasons behind supposed low voter turnout or we're just spinning our wheels.

Major Democratic leaders can point out the disenfranchisement on TV for example.
One huge example? What if ...

🗣Texas is blue/purple
🗣Has been so for 2 or more decades
🗣Is a test ground for more types of cheating than gerrymandering?

This *may* not be true. I haven't deeply studied this outside the two areas I've lived in this state.
But this needs investigating, at the least. That's the reason for this thread, and my last "voting isn't the only answer" thread.

#President @realDonaldTrump's words, whether you accept his apology and his explanation, do not comport with his actions and his foreign policy toward #Russia. He has been one of the hardest presidents on Russia in recent memory.

#Trump #IntelligenceCommunity #Collusion
Where was the outrage when @BarackObama told Medvedev to inform #Putin "After my election I have more flexibility,"? I think much of the outrage being expressed- especially by #Republicans- is politically motivated.

#Trump #IntelligenceCommunity #Collusion #Russia
However, what @realDonaldTrump said was not right. It DID undermine our #IntelligenceCommunity, and it was a mistake. He has since corrected it and walked it back.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full

#Trump used the same trick as George W did in Florida. By removing voters of color in 28 states, Trump supposedly won the electoral college.
