According to Trump ...

"The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy."


"The election is rigged."

The American voters by pulling the plug on her,
made Hillary the first casualty of the swamp draining!

the popular vote spread is only about 200,000,
out of 112 million

Not a lot of difference

It's about a .00169% difference. If not for the electoral college we'd be looking t endless recount and the true number would never be determined.

As an authority on voter fraud I can say without any doubt that the amount of voter fraud perpetrated by Clinton supporters far exceeds the difference in the vote count.

Trump won by the very system (the electoral college) that he denigrated.

What's wrong with that? He also denigrated the tax code, that he so readily utilized to his advantage. We all do. The gov can hardly expect you to decline to abide by the very laws they insist you live by. No one wants to fill out tax returns, but if we do, we are also going to exploit every loophole and exemption allowed. I do. By the time I get done doing my paperwork, I pay a net of 3% federal income taxes on my mid level earnings. The bottom feeders not only do not pay any income taxes, but some even get tax return checks of money they never paid. I don't see any of them returning the checks with a note that they do not want the money.

I don't like the electoral system either. Until they do away with it, it will be the deciding factor in ALL of our presidential elections.

Perhaps we all had been too hasty in denouncing the electoral college. I for one acknowledge guilt and place announce my mea culpa . Clinton presented herself as possessing advantage because she had large sums of campaign financing, an electoral college map advantage, organizational heft and a global pedigree.

Yet while Clinton won the popular vote while Trump won the Electoral College. Trump campaigned as his own man, as a movement, as an agent of change

It is still possible he wins pop vote, it's not all counted.

I think there still 7 or 8% to go
