    One doesn't "appoint" an election. That ain't the way it works. One "wins" an election. This is 3rd grade stuff. But then you would have had to actually graduate the 2nd grade to know that.
    One isn't "appointed" a political point of view either. One chooses it. You can try appointing me to "the right" but it ain't you who decides. That's my decision alone.

    He did so well enough. If you don't know what he's referring to then you need to find a legitimate news source and catch up.

    Hillary got 3 million more votes. So she won the popular vote. The Electoral College APPOINTED/SELECTED Trump anyway. And the Party that is the one being harmed by the electoral college, is the one calling for it to be abandoned as unfair. Republicans have done that in the past as have Democrats. It depends which foot the shoe is on. But we all know it sometimes stands in the way of the popular vote.

    I guess you only got the Fox spin and need to be educated on this. Franken persuaded an actress to rehearse a kiss before going live on TV. She finally consented. But Franken did the kiss inappropriately. She allowed/consented to the kiss but not to the way he did it. Too bad she didn't slap him good for it. But yes, she allowed the kiss. She didn't fight it. She thought she was rehearsing it. OK?

    Yea and the same state that Hillary won by 3 million votes, voted to say no to gay marriage, so what's your point?

    My point is that when you realize you've lost the debate, you deflect, pivot, and raise an unrelated issue that doesn't address the issue at hand. It's a very old trick dating back to Germany in the early 1900s if not earlier.

    So by your pivot, I see that you surrendered and accept my comments.

    Trump Derangement Syndrome.

    Anyone who likes or is liked by Trump is reflexively hated by those afflicted by the disease.

    Fortunately I don't have to worry about it one way or the other, because either way, Hillary will never be President.

    Look at you, thinking the "popular vote" matters.

    You continue you to say this, even though you know it is false. Why?
    Like every other sore loser.

    even if
    If there was collusion it still wouldn't be on par with Hillary. Collusion in itself is not unlawful.

    As I said, this is 3rd grade stuff, so what would be the purpose of explaining it? It'll just go over your head. To make it simple for you: > > >

    Trump & Hillary entered the election arena. Within the arena are lions, tigers, bears, gladiators, and unfavourable accusations. The "winner" is chosen by a set of rules that include the votes (positive points) from the spectators and the ruling class. The one who "wins" is the one who accumulates the most points. He/She is the "WINNER". There are lesser seats, some of which are determined outside of the arena. Those are said to be "APPOINTED" their positions. Do you sort of "get it" now?

    "Trump was elected because democrats stayed home on voting day."

    Very true. Neither party represented them in the election. They are a dying breed as extremism takes over both parties.

    No. Greeting Putin with a hand-shake or a hug ....... sitting at the same table .... being at the same party ......... being in the same city .... is not "GROWING EVIDENCE". That is called "redefining the definition of the word evidence".

    It never fails. Whenever there is a discussion about our current President, Trumpians bring up a person who hasn't been President for ten months.They are so predictable.

    Comparing Obama's re-election to Trump's election, Obama received over 51% of the popular vote, Trump 46%, and beaten by Clinton by nearly three million votes.

    If I were a Trumpian, I wouldn't bring up election results.
