Well, you can't spell "ignorance" without "ignore".
So by all means, be ignorant. I really don't care.
Why do you allow the lies?

Nothing I wrote is a compromise of any of our ideals.
Fascists can't be hugged into not being fascists. Sometimes violence is the answer. It was the answer 75 years ago. Why not make America great again?
Because I know how much it upsets Conservatives to remind them that they only won on a technicality, not on the merits of any of their beliefs. Doing so completely undermines their "mandate", and undercuts support for their proposals. After all, most people didn't care for them.
No, it doesn't. It gives unbalanced influence to people who frankly don't deserve it. There's a reason no other country in the world does it like this. It was a relic from the 1700's meant to subvert minority voting blocs by giving outsized influence to rubes, rednecks, slobs, and traitors.
You couldn't win the popular vote. Which means the majority of people in this country reject your ideas. You don't have popular support for them. And your arrogance is going to wipe you guys out this fall and again in 2020.
Your assumptions are specious.
People don't need to share anyone's "ideas" in an election, and the popular vote only shows the selection of voters for a candidate, not necessarily their "ideas."
Isn't it a fact that 46.9% of all eligible voters didn't bother to show up on Election Day 2016?
How does that square with your attempt to fallaciously insinuate that "the majority of people in this country reject your ideas?"
How so? Explain. Seems like you're using words you don't understand.
So you're saying candidate Trump had no ideas. So you voted for him simply because of his personality. Which would mean you're in a cult of personality.
Weren't intending me to take it in that direction, were ya?
You oppose universal suffrage?
Five US presidents in history have been elected despite losing the popular vote: John Quincy Adams in 1824, Rutherford Hayes in 1876, Benjamin Harrison in 1888, George W. Bush in 2000 and Donald Trump in 2016.

You don't get to decide who "deserves" a vote" and who doesn't.
Candidates don't run on ideas? Well, Conservatives don't because they have no ideas.
So you're admitting that you're just voting for Trump because of the cult of personality.
Do you really want to make that argument?
Yes, so add those to Clinton's total (of which she bested Trump by 3,000,000 votes), and you find that close to 70% of the country rejects or doesn't care for your shitty ideas or candidates or whatever you are wiggling around the parameters for voting.
So since you have no broad support, why should anyone take anything you say seriously?
I said nothing of the sort, nor did I imply anything remotely similar.
Who told you I voted for Trump?
Assume much?
Ummm...if you couldn't get them to vote for your cult of personality (still can't believe you decided to make that your argument), then they reject it.
Or, taken another way and using actual percentages, it could be said that since 25.5% voted for Trump, 1.7% voted for Johnson, and 46.9% of all eligible voters didn't bother to vote for Hillary vs the 25.6% who did...
I think you'll find that the enumerated powers of the office of the presidency are unaffected by any "mandates" or "popular support."
LOL! The Electoral College is not universal suffrage. It's the opposite of that because the Electoral College doesn't have to vote as the people do.
So not only do you know nothing about the Constitution, but you don't even know how the Electoral College works, what it is, and what it does.
But I wouldn't expect a Russian troll to know these things.
"Why are so scared, poser?"
Take it easy, US. Calm down. You are fucking up your posts.
You said they vote for candidates. Well, don't candidates have ideas? And aren't those ideas what attracts voters?
Again, not sure you fully grasp American democracy, because you're not an American, huh?
You're absolutely right. I assumed you were an American. I know now that you're not.
I defy you to find a post where I said you hacked anyone's thread or account.
Give it up. I know you are use to fails...but this is way over the top.
Unless, of course, you are just doing it to amuse.
If so...it is working.
If I'd said that the Electoral College is universal suffrage, you'd have a point.
Since I didn't, you don't.
