Election Day

[punch it in]

Not everyone who voted for him is all of the above. Most are. Some are just one or two out of three. Some more are just horribly mis-informed and naive.

Yea, probably 39 million middle class white guys are horribly mis-informed and naive.

No. I said some. Than you have your uneducated. You have your bigots. Etc etc. I was not just talking about middle class white guys either.
I am a middle class white guy for what that is worth.

The point I'm making is that a metric shitload of Americans want him in office.

Hillary supporters act like they lost to a handfull of rednecks.
Obviously far from it.

Since when can a redneck not be a middle class white guy? I know plenty. Look there are those that voted for Trump who make me scratch my head. They do not appear to be uneducated, bigoted, etc.
The vast majority is "deplorable " though.

She actually won the popular vote and lost the electoral college.

I doubt that you were worried about the popular vote before the election started.
But now that you lost you are all butt hurt about it.
And if Hilldog had won you wouldn't have said squat about it.
Hindsight is a bitch, eh?

Fifth time it's happened according to one website I looked at. I have mixed feelings about that. I agree with not changing the rules retroactively because the other sides candidate won. But really, I would go either way if they decide to go popular vote next election or not.

OT1H, candidates would stick more to issues in big states in popular vote contests, not totally but to some degree. And we are a group of states, not just a homogeneous country, and the electoral college still gives weight to big states, it's not like the senate 2 reps each state.

OTOH, the POTUS really is our one true national election. Everyone's vote should count equally, just because some are banded together in huge municipalities shouldn't be a disqualifier.

So I really would be fine either way.

He was replying to a comment that metric shit tons of people voted for Trump. I think the fact that Hillary won the popular vote is worth mentioning. It has happened five times in history that the "winner" lost that. Bush once. The other three guys were ancient. Bur leave it to a trumpeter to call him butt hurt and stir the pot some more. Smfh.

This describes Clinton voters as well.

I do not know one Clinton supporter that doesn't give a shit about the environment, or who thinks immigrants are rapists. But I appreciate the Trumpian response of "i know you are but what am i"? Lol
