Over the years, many a prominent politician has said, to paraphrase, “I may not be the smartest guy in the world, but I can count votes.”

Such is the case with President Donald Trump, and it may be the bottom line reason he has decided to openly endorse Judge Roy Moore for the United States Senate.

While politicians from both sides of the aisle have been falling all over to distance themselves from, or flat out reject the Moore candidacy, Trump is in fact, truthful and pragmatic.

Let’s first take a look at what is obvious.

Throughout the 2016 election, Donald Trump riled up supporters when he promised to build them a wall. The wall would be towering, it would be strong, and it would keep anybody else from getting in.

Almost a year after his inauguration, we can say that this is one of the lone promises Trump has delivered on to date. Except, instead of building a wall around Mexico, he has built a wall around the Republican Party.

Donald Trump said that elections are rigged. And he was right. He still is.

But, for all his “drain the swamp” rhetoric, there is a major area of institutional corruption that he and his “Democratic” foes are in perfect partnership: rigging elections so voters only have two meaningful choices.

Trust in the media continues to be at an all-time low. Yet it doesn't seem like the mainstream news media has learned anything. Even after an attempted terrorist attack in New York City, CNN found time to report on an in-depth New York Times investigation on how much Diet Coke President Donald Trump drinks. An entire segment on CNN was devoted to President Trump's love for Diet Coke, fast food intake, and his TV watching habits.

New York – Today Open Primaries, a non-partisan electoral reform organization, condemned the Democratic Party’s Unity Reform Commission (URC) for its inaction on opening primary elections nationwide.

RNC Committeewoman Joyce Simmons of Nebraska resigned her position with the party in protest of its continued financial support of Republican Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore.

Moore is facing multiple sexual assault accusations from women who said he pursued them when they were just teenagers and he was in his 30s.

Independent Nebraska gubernatorial candidate Bob Krist applauded Simmons for "standing up to party bosses."

News broke over the weekend that the DNC Unity Reform Commission (URC) -- a way for the Democratic Party to essentially police itself -- announced a number of non-binding resolutions to show how the party should change its presidential nomination process.

A headline like this would probably bring an alphabet soup of federal agencies into the state. That did not happen.

What did happen when over 2.4 million American citizens’ votes were nullified? Four thousand dollars in fines. That translates to $0.00055 per vote. That is what happened when four “faithless” electors in Washington state voted against their constituency.

In the wake of a toxic presidential election and bitter partisan divides in Congress on every major issue, Americans are rightly wondering what has happened to our ability to rise above politics and do what’s right for the nation. Social media is a convenient scapegoat, with its echo chamber that can make all news seem “fake” if differing from what our friends think
