Worthy of it's own thread for the *President Elect.
Shitlibs are hanging their egos on the wispy reed of the popular vote, claiming (wrongly) that Trump’s electoral win is illegitimate because he (narrowly) lost the popular vote. They are wrong whether their premise is true or false. Remind them that their beloved Bill Clinton won his 1992 election with 43% of the popular vote…meaning, quite correctly, that 57% of Americans did not want Bill for President. Bubba then went on to win his 1996 reelection with 49.2% of the popular vote. Was democracy subverted by Bill Clinton’s back-to-back Presidencies each won with under 50% of the popular vote total?
Regardless of shitlib historical ignorance and incoherence about American republicanism and the electoral college championed by Alexander Hamilton, the reality is that Trump likely won the popular vote, too. Not all the states have finished counting. MI is still tallying as of this post. Once counting up Trump’s states is done, the current popular vote difference will narrow. More crucially, it is probable that thecunt’s national vote total is padded by the votes of millions of illegal aliens.

An estimated 2-3 million illegal voters in sanctuary cities.
Right now, she leads the popular vote by 300-500K. Toss those illegal alien votes (of which she doubtlessly received the overwhelming bulk), plus any felon votes and fraudulent votes (I see dead Democreeps), and Trump takes a 2-3% popular vote lead. For this reason, President Trump should use his Golden Mandate to immediately send to Congress a Voter ID law. It’s time, for the sake of American democracy, to crack down on vote and election fraud.
You do know Bill still won by popular vote as well correct? He had overwhelming the higher voter count of all the people running.
Also most people simply point out the fact that the Electoral College may be past it's expiration date when someone can win the popular vote but still lose. I'm sure Republicans think differently otherwise two of their presidential candidates would have lost
I have to say, illegal voters tallies should immediately be removed from the popular vote status.

I guess that is true. So if people are estimating 2-3 million illegals voted? I guess our only solution is to just remove 2-3 million votes from her.
Sucks for H-Dog, but that's what happens when you support Sanctuary Cities.

Also this could have been a lot worse, thank god the election wasn't decided by a bunch of illegal voters. That would have truly been something to protest about. Either legal citizens decide this shit or nobody does.
But you and I both know the democrats would think differently about the EC too if it had been the reason Hilary won lol. It's part of the reason for the humor, a good chunk of them genuinely seem to be under the impression they'd be just as pissed off even if Trump got the popular vote and Hilary won the election. They really wouldn't be though. The Washington Post would probably write an article hailing the EC as the best thing since sliced bread.
I would love to have a window into a parallel universe where Trump won the popular vote, but lost the election. So I could just record the reactions from politicians and celebrities and compare it to the ones here who are saying the EC is basically the worst thing since Jesus died.

You have said more than once you love when you feel people are over reacting and taking it too seriously and all that stuff. So why do you keep telling people to move on?

In 2012, Donald Trump complained about Obama allegedly losing the popular vote but winning the election, and demanded protests - .i.e. exactly what's happening to him right now.
Deducing hypocrisy from that, of course, lies far beyond Ziggy's feeble intellectual capacity.

Literally a diversionary Coolstorybro - that has very little to do with the thread.
On a side note, Has there been a more frequently and stupendously wrong-headed commenter about Trump’s rise and victory than Ellimist AKA - The Semen Plug Within? Every one of that yenta’s posts over the past year were of the “derp drumpf has no chance, john oliver said so” school of shallow shitlib thought. It’s one thing to strike-out when swinging for the fences, but it takes a real talent to whiff at T-ball.
How would you rate your butthurt? Mildly chapped, or all the way to anal fissure flare-up? Would you say your salty tears are unfathomably sad or bitterly self-pitying?
Well that's cute, because for it to even be a hypocritical point, you'd have to find a quote of me denouncing the electoral process after Obama had won, sweetie, much like i can dig out several quotes of you cock-surely telling people to place bets on Trump, and then crying that the electorate isn't fair after loosing.
Either it's hypocrisy, or it's that you hold protesters to higher standards than your preferred president. I'm assuming you did not desire someone who exuded "historical ignorance and incoherence" to be commander in chief, but perhaps I overestimated you.
You obviously don't understand how probabilities work, but I guess that's to be expected, given the body of evidence we see. Hillary's defeat was not impossible, it was just incredibly improbable, and required a confluence of both random and systemic polling errors, as well as well-timed incidents such as Comey.
Your attempts to poison the well aside, something tells me that your defense of the electoral college is probably incredibly asinine. I know what idiotic claims you're going to throw out, of course.

Hilarious! Hilary just keeps getting owned. It sucks she didn't get enough votes in the states that mattered though, but oh well. Too late now.

Exit polls have not indicated that Comey caused Hillary to lose. I don't know why people buy this, either. More likely, it helped her because they "cleared" her and he wrote a clarifying letter before they "cleared" her. In my opinion, it was intended to help her and Comey was on her side.
Bernie, someone pretty much all of us in this forum like, even states that it didn't cause her to lose.
Based on the actual opinions from people in the swing states, Hillary lost because it was a massive "f*** you" to the democrats and especially Hillary.
Washington Post had a nice write up and even talks about some of the exit polling:
I see some sites trying to pass off the Comey thing as what caused Clinton to lose. There was evidence, months before general election day, that Hillary would lose. We (mainstream media) just ignored it. And many Dem. pundits had and continue to talk about this. Dems. were disenchanted with Hillary since the Bernie debacle. Why did Hillary Clinton REALLY lose? She was too wooden and did not resonate with the working class. She lost the swing states SPECIFICALLY because of this. As I pointed out, exit polls indicated Trump was less trusted and less fit to be president than Hillary...but they still voted AGAINST Hillary. Read that: against Hillary, not for Trump, AGAINST Hillary. As I have been telling people, Trump didn't win, Hillary lost and there is a difference.
And it seems odd that people forget that the Comey thing actually helped Clinton as reported by some news sources:
The "Comey made Hillary lose" rhetoric needs to die a very quick death.
Perhaps my mind can be changed. But I'm not buying that Comey lost Clinton the election. I didn't forget that people thought it helped her when it broke. I didn't forget that people (including important people and talking heads in the media) thought it was setup by Hillary when Comey cleared her BEFORE election day. And I certainly did not forget that Hillary made a massive surge a couple of days leading up to election day, in the polls.
