Trump Slams Senator Who Prevented Nebraska Changing Its Electoral Voting

So... Trump, as well as the state governor, both want Nebraska to be in line with about 48 other states in how they allocate their electoral college votes. And this is bad why?

Which is fine, but really isn't the huge issue you are making it out to be.  Certainly nothing to do with Russia or any kind of threat to democracy.  If California decided to do the same, Trump would benefit to the tune of at least 10 EC votes.

Not really. We have a parliamentary system that is similar to the EC. In our last election, for example, the Conservative party won the popular vote. But, the Liberal party won more seats in parliament, so they got the opportunity to form the government.  It encourages parties to be mindful of all regions of the country rather than concentrate support in small areas.  I wasn't happy with the result, but I recognize the winner and believe in the system.

In America we refer this as a cheater Do you as well in Canada?

Here is a link from CNN to how much he paid in taxes.  What evidence do you have of his cheating? Or is he actually following the law as it is written.

When you're a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

 

When you're a Dem, every problem looks like Russkie collusion.

Now you are shifting the goalposts. At first, you said that Musk didn't pay his fair share. Then, you refused to define what his 'fair share' would be. Now, you are discussing Tesla a publicly traded company in which Musk is a minority shareholder.  Stop being so slippery.

Elon Musk owns almost 13% of Tesla shares, which is worth $73 billion. He also has stakes in SpaceX and other businesses, giving him a total net worth of $203 billion.

Elon Musk’s sprawling empire — spanning everything from electric vehicles and social media to space rockets and miniature brain implants — may soon make him the world’s first trillionaire.

How many here agree with the Ham? Musk pays his fair share?

Keep shifting. You are now talking about wealth, not income. AFAIK, there is no wealth tax.

Changing the rules 45 days before the election is called "rigging the election". Nebraska has had this rule for 30 years. Why change it now?
