    If we were talking about football, you'd have a point.

    But I can see why you'd make the analogy. I think many look at politics like football, and tribe loyalty motivates them to cheer for their team without consideration of anything else.

    Too bad all that union money is drying up on them.

    The earth is billions of years old, and we get to be alive during the Trump presidency wrecking the entire leftist paradigm.

    So lucky.

    The best way to not have peeps mention the popular vote is presumably to not deflect to Hillary ever time the topic of Trump comes up but trumpkins don't seem to be capable of such simple behaviours. They seem better trained to take the least likely, most arduous, and entirely convoluted journey to arrive at firm belief in the toxic sludge they fill their gormless noggins with.

    The US isn't a democracy, it's a Constitutional Republic with democratic institutions. No US President has been elected to the office by popular vote, but by the electoral college. Every man or woman who has ever ran for President has known that.

    The system worked the people voted, wanted Trump and the numbers in the EC where the States decided how to dispense their EC votes and almost all use Winner Takes All so the fight isn't Federal dummies its State level if the split the EC votes Hillary might have won. Don't blame the system at the Constitutional level then. And Trump is an incumbent next time around and the Democrats have no one who could win. Hillary failed and I won't vote for a woman unless she is amazing and Sanders is too old. Plus with the Legislature under GOP control they can't do crap unless that changes.

    And Trump isn't that bad he is tackling the trade issues and immigration and I think he had the right idea I would toss out the children back their home nations minors can't ask for Asylum on their own they don't have legal rights and their parents are criminals so send the children back home and the families should get the chance to go with them or stay. That would be a good way to do it. Screw what other countries think unless they are man enough to invade us to force us we won't have to worry there who would dare? So its time we grab the enemies by the balls and tell them to bugger off. Or bring it but we never lost a defensive war.

    She got nearly 4 million more popular votes than Bernie, so no.

    It can't be proven that Donnie Dirt Bag got the most legal votes!

    The Trump Russians also went after the voter rolls and the GOP was able to suppress the vote in the key electoral states, so the odds are that Tramp didn't even the EC vote.

    Except you are wrong and you KNOW it. Just why is there a big tado over ID at the voting booth by democrats, yet is supported by republicans. There are over 10,000 items that require ID, like a plane ride, renting a car, going into certain government offices, TO BUY A GUN, yet not to vote. You KNOW why and so do I.

    See, I am just observing an obvious truth about illegal and multiple democratic voting, you just want to make stuff up.

    Given the fact that three million more Americans voted for Clinton than donald and his approval rating has never been above the low 40s, you post may reflect wishful thinking. But we shall see.

    Yep. It's a lot easier to be a conservative when you can just make up facts.

    It could be proven either way but some of the states refused to supply data for a nationwide voting audit

    The electoral college is there so states get proper representation! Without it you might as well dice US up into 50 countries because you try and go the popular vote route you just pulled trigger on the united states.

    The EC has nothing to do with our being a Republic. A Republic is where you elect representatives to act in whatever they think are their Constituent's best interests. The Electors in the EC are bound very strongly by tradition to vote as the popular vote in their districts tells them to. They might very easily be replaced by machines.

    Hillary may have very well been the wrong candidate but Trump has proven the be the wrong human being, in that I scarcely credit to give him even that.

    Do you have any Democratic candidates like McMullen? I do realize that as an independent he might turn Democrat and I think he will deserve a lot of attention if he does that but I think the Republicans have guaranteed their demise as a relevant party for the next Century if not longer at this point.


    Close to two years on and "**** you, we won" is still your mantra. The President is supposed to govern for everyone, not pander to a base increasingly out of step with the rest of the country. You won in 2016 because we thought no one would be insane enough to vote for such an obvious megalomaniac and total moral reprobate and so we stayed home, silly us, but you and Trump are guaranteeing that will not happen EVER again. Enjoy your victory and your temporary place in the sun, you will not see its like repeated

    Unlike Trump, Clinton didn't brag about his behavior.
