The Popular Vote

First of all, I suspect that many non-citizen votes were cast on election day, and we know there were Democrat precincts that counted more votes than there were registered voters to cast them.  So I'm convinced that if Hillary really won the popular vote, it was not by the margin reported.  (We need the Electoral College because Leftists cheat.)

That said, I welcome the Democrats' fixation upon the popular vote and their prostrations, gyrations, and conniptions in an attempt to cast doubt on the election.

The latter makes them look like petty poor losers, and the former gives them the certitude that they need change nothing to be successful with their left-wing, unpopular ideology and style.

I know that they are confident that they need not change because Nancy Pelosi is still their leader in The House.  Their Former standard bearer Bill Clinton is insulting angry white guys, who I believe are still a rather large voting block.  Their enablers in the news media are still showing their bias and confirming the fact that they can't be trusted to report the truth.

As annoying as it all is, I believe that if Trump accomplishes anything good in the next two years, the midterm elections in 2018 should be very satisfying entertainment for Conservatives.

This is wrong - where are you getting your information?

"We need the Electoral College because Leftists cheat."

Republican lawmakers in states across the country have successfully led efforts to disenfranchise whole groups of people (the elderly, minorities, the young) by making it harder to vote, by restricting access to polls and imposing regulations on what people need in order to vote. Bernie Sanders summed up the problem precisely when he said "It has never occurred to me as a candidate to figure out a way to deny the vote to people because they might vote against me." This is Republican behaviour, not Democratic.

"I welcome the Democrats' fixation upon the popular vote and their prostrations, gyrations, and conniptions in an attempt to cast doubt on the election."

If the situations were reversed and the Republicans had won the popular vote but a Democrat were sworn in (particularly if this was the second time such a thing has happened in 16 years), Republicans wouldn't merely have "prostrations, gyrations and conniptions". The Electoral College would have been thrown out already. Try for some honest introspection - you know this.

The election of Donald Trump, a demagogue and an idiot who should have been disqualified from the moment he began the racist birther crusade, is a calamity for America. You should be deeply embarrassed that you live in a country where a buffoon like him actually won votes, and even more embarrassed that he won yours.
