    A majority of Americans voted against Hillary.

    The implication by Trump was that they should examine that possibility. The implication was not that Joe Blow just go out and try it. Our illustrious media misconstrued it into that.

    Seriously? The STATES vote for president, not the people. The people tell the state THEIR preference. You are advocating that some states should not have a voice in the selection of the leader of the UNITED states.

    What happens the moment the states with very little representation already, are given an even smaller piece of the pie? You think they'll just say, "Okee dokie, whatever California wants is fine?"

    Lulz.

    This is one of those "which number is bigger," type of math problems. The person who got the most total votes, got the most total votes.

    You have the facts on your side already. No need to make stuff up.

    You should read up on the process...
    “A unique link will be sent to the hospital points of contact. This will direct the [point of care] to a hospital-specific secure form that can then be used to enter the necessary information. After completing the fields, click submit and confirm that the form has been successfully captured,” reads the HHS instructions. “A confirmation email will be sent to you from the HHS Protect System. This method replaces the emailing of individual spreadsheets previously requested.”

    But that does not say it has to be a separate format.

    "This method replaces the emailing of individual spreadsheets previously requested.”" Some hospital administrators have indicated that this is less time consuming than it was before.

    How about the Trumpleton's responding to this thread put aside your opinions about CNN and focus on what was said in the video. Specifically what do you take exception with?

    Okay...but it is a form sent directly to HHS - the CDC will have to get separate data. So if we want the CDC to get the info, it doubles up the work for hospital admin...at a time when they are already rammed.

    No. It is -absolute- truth.
    The fact B follows A never, on its own, proves that A caused B.
    Never.
    That you do not understand this is no surprise.

    Trump called climate change a 'chinese hoax'.and pulled out of the Paris accords.

    The only nation to do that.

    Your claim of 'unsupportable nonsense' is vacuous declaration. In other words, 'unsupportable nonsense'.

    No, it doesn't 'without qualification' which you initially different offer it.

    Reread my comment, all your points are addressed, in spades.

    Were you ignorant of the fact the majority voted against Hillary, or were you fully aware and chose to be dishonest about it?

    You are fully aware of the fact nothing in your comment negates what I said.
    Correlation, alone, never proves causation. Ever.

    No, I am not nitpicking. You made an incorrect statement. A majority did not vote for Hillary and so you cannot make some sort of moral argument based on the assertion that a majority did vote for her.
