Hillary ONE TERM & DONE: a possible face-saving compromise for GOP electors?
I'm just throwing spaghetti at the wall here, but stranger things have happened than this.
What if Democrats propose a compromise with GOP electors that since Hillary won the popular vote, and there are doubts (at minimum) about how Trump won the electoral college, Hillary take office but vows to just serve for one term, so essentially 2020 is the "do-over" some have suggested?
The right could say they got their pound of flesh from Hillary, and we could get four years to get the Democrats house in order and present a fresh candidate in 2020.
I'm sure there are some flaws with this or possible better variations.
What do you guys think?
:rofl: :rofl:

can only be a plus.

39. Why does the GOP need to save face?
You're looking at this from a Democrat's perspective; one that says Trump is an embarrassment and a mistake and the people who put him in power won't be able to face themselves in the mirror.
You need to look at it from the perspective of being a Republican and that in little over a month, they'll enter Washington DC in control of the Presidency, the Senate and the House. Oh, and a vacancy on the Supreme Court. They're amassing the most conservative cabinet ever to undo decades of government liberalism.
That's called "winning."
And people here think that they're troubled by the need to save face and the only remedy for their tortured GOP souls is to give Hillary Clinton the White House?
Seriously?
You said, "one by one Rep's and trump voters are seeing the colossal mistake the country made in allowing trump to run."
Says who? Go take a peek over at Free Republic and count how many people over there are viewing Donald Trump as a colossal mistake. Be prepared to stay awhile to find even one.
Sorry, but there's some serious delusion on this thread.

Holy crap, batman, if they think this is reasonable, no wonder their "common sense" gun SAFETY proposals are laughed at.

Don`t forget this either.

I'm really hoping we can flip AT LEAST 8 of those 25 and get a veto-proof super-majority.
I'd get my own shadenboner at that one.

17. The Republicans don't have to compromise on anything.
That's why the next 2 years, at a minimum, are going to suck so much.
Now you lurking primitives are going to find out what it was like for me during Barry's first two years. Brace yourselves.

Its what leftists always do - when out of power, they are all about compromise and 'bipartisanship' - not so much while they are in power.

It will only take an Amendment to the Constitution. With the current harmony we are enjoying in these kumbaya United States of America, that should only take maybe 150 years or so.
