You guys realise Clinton isn't that arsed nor is Trump. Not even read most the spam but whether you wanted a revote/recount or whatever it very much likely isn't going to happen.

hurr durr lets rewrite the constitution which is the entire basis for what this country was founded upon "An ELECTIVE DESPOTISM was not the government we fought for; but one which should not only be founded on free principles, but in which the powers of government should be so divided and balanced among several bodies of magistracy, as that no one could transcend their legal limits, without being effectually checked and restrained by the others." Good ole' Thomas Jefferson. The fact that you're comparing a document that was written to be the backbone of this country and what it stands for to gay marriage..... is.... Grasping at straws, to say the very least lmfao... I'm unfortunately out of patience with the straw-manning and saying I have a lack of evidence for my argument after posting videos and pictures, but keep trying to change that constitution, man. Maybe it'll happen one day (? lmao) |

In order to get the electoral vote for a state you need to win the majority of votes in the state, he won a majority of votes in a majority of states, what's the problem? Hillary only had a few hundred thousand more, but with all the voter fraud and "dead" people voting + some voting machines magically being broken and not being able to select Trump she probably wouldn't have the overall popular vote especially without illegals, and probably why she didn't request a recount. I never once seen people complain about it as much as they are now, they don't have an issue with the system as long as it benefits them.

What people don't seem to be understanding is that this election was run, as standard, under ruling of the electoral college. If the argument is that Hillary Clinton should be named the winner because she won the popular vote, think of how much sense that doesn't make. Donald Trump's entire campaign strategy would have been completely different. No one can say if he would have won or lost based on election run under that format. It'd be like having a basketball game, and at the end of the game you say, "You scored the most points, but we had possession of the ball the longest so we won." Nice, you won based on a condition that was only determined after you actually lost… I'm pretty confident that Trump could beat Clinton in popular vote if he's under the impression that that's how you win. His campaign would have been run very differently. Edit: Oops, I just saw someone already made a similar sports analogy |

"If you count all states equally, by simple average percentage of vote share, Trump won the average popular vote of the states by 3.91%, R48.63% to D44.72%. This includes the outlier that is D.C., which is a -86.86% margin in favor of Clinton. Without D.C., the average margin is 5.73%, R49.52% to D43.79%. Personally, I think this is a better metric than nationwide popular vote. In the end, it's the states electing a president, so averaging how much you win by in all states is a strong statement of likability. Plus, the closer the margin, the closer the US is to equilibrium, as candidates will have had really close races in all states." |

Trump won. Fairly, as far as i know. so idk why people are protesting in the streets of nyc. lol bc of that i hear ambulances going back and forth day to night. accept it. U.S. citizens voted for him. if anything, I'd blame hillary for losing the states that she shouldn't have and she lost bunch of it. |

A lot of people these days are spitting out phrases like "white privilege" and "white people problems" Everyone has their own difficulties in life. You can't just generalize a whole race based on a few examples... Have to stop paying attention to everything they say or call you... |
