    Why?

    I wasn't the one who said:

    "The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy. The phony electoral college made a laughing stock of our nation. The loser one! This election is a total sham and a travesty. We are not a democracy! Our nation is totally divided! The world is laughing at us. Our country is now in serious and unprecedented trouble...like never before

    We can't let this happen. Lets fight like hell and stop this great and disgusting injustice! We should march on Washington and stop this travesty. He lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election. We should have a revolution in this country."


    It was your leader.

    So who is in "another world"?

    I disagree with your sig. Any revolutionary type of actions would serve to both undermine the country and give Donald Trump the excuse he needs for any presidential abuses. Watch him like a hawk? Sure. Oppose policies you don't like? By all means, as is our right as Americans. But the minute we become violent, we disenfranchise everyone.

    actually our Constitution was a disaster for democracy since our genius Founders realized that mob rule would be a disaster. 60% who voted for in last election could not name president and Vice.

    I thought the poll was asking if we support Trump so I voted yes. I will give the guy a chance before I make up my mind.

    Exactly it was designed to hold down democracy of course democrats oppose that yet they still swear to uphold the constitution. Liars or hypocrites take your choice

    Yes, Hillary hated gays, Trump hated the electoral college, Kerry wanted war, then didn't...blah blah blah. Politicians do that all the time.

    During the primaries there were states where Bernie won the popular vote but she won more delegates because of the so called super delegates. You weren't crying then were you? Trump wasn't a sore loser because Trump didn't lose.

    Like most Democrats, he hates democracy except when it would lead to one party rule.

    Electoral college was designed by our genius Founders to thwart the will of the democratic mob. Very important to realize that the legal ability to vote does not make the vote an educated or worthwhile vote.
