There are still a significant number of messenger services in NYC. While he may not be wrong, it's a myopic and inefficient perspective.

the biggest reason dumpster is about to be sworn in is because of a failure of #3 and #4. had the press DONE IT'S JOB, and not gotten sucked into a reality show mentality during the campaign and debates, those 40 % that didn't vote, likely would have. they saw a press that was giving the orange dumpster a complete pass, and decided that the election WAS rigged.....for dumpster and didn't bother showing up.

our big problem is a CORRUPT MEDIA. they have been corrupted by fame, and face time. they are NOT researching any of the crap that dumpster said. they're just playing the reality game and getting as much face time as possible.

I'll share an insightful FB post:

The most frightening thing about the Trump and the cabinet he is choosing is that the man whom Republicans admire the most warned all of us about. His name was Abraham Lincoln and the speech and warning was called the Lyceum Address delivered on January 27, 1838. In this speech he warned that people and mobs of people who disrespected American laws and courts could destroy the United States. He warned of a destructive force from within. I quote:

"Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the ocean and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest, with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of a thousand years. At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer. If it ever reach us it must spring up amongst us; it cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be it's author and finisher. As a nation of freemen we must live through all time or die by suicide."
Whenever the vicious portion of our population shall be permitted to gather in bands of hundreds or thousands, and burn churches, ravage and rob provision stores, throw printing presses into rivers and shoot editors and hang and burn colored persons at pleasure and with impunity, depend on it, this government cannot last."

Lincoln then warned that a tyrant could overtake the American political system from within. He said:
"Is it unreasonable to expect that some man possessed of the loftiest genius, coupled with ambition sufficient to push it to its utmost stretch, will spring up amongst us? When he does, the people will need to be united with each other, attached to their government and laws and be generally intelligent to frustrate his designs. He will get no satisfaction supporting and maintaining rules and laws erected by others. Many good men would be satisfied with nothing beyond a congress seat or Presidential chair but he belongs not to the family of the lion or the tribe of the eagle. He disdains the beaten path, he seeks his own game and scorns to tread in the footsteps of any predecessor. He will have distinction at the expense of freed slaves or enslaving free men. Fame and distinction will be his paramount objection and rather than build up what others erected, he would set boldly to the task of pulling it down."
