Hillary Clinton on potential rematch with Trump: “Obviously I can beat him again”

Perhaps this can be explained as a result of excess Chardonnay consumption. The only way it can be understood otherwise is that she believes winning the popular vote means she won the Presidency.

The thing that’s actually obvious is that she has declared herself unable to take the Presidential oath of office:

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

Since Article 2, Section 1 of that Constitution defines an Electoral College:

The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice-President chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows:

Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.
