    Gerrymandering has nothing to do with the electoral vote.

    if I understand correctly, Hilliary lost because 30% of registered demmycrats got lost on the way to the voting booth and ended up in Vladivostok......

Trump is unqualified for president, and you are unqualified to vote.
    I brought up the electoral because that's what is counted to determine the winner.

    In the way the system works, Trump did get the most votes in enough States to get 304 electoral votes. You continue to prove you don't understand how the system works.

    You idiots elected an unqualified black twice thinking his skin color made him qualified. While you may be qualified to vote based solely on age, you don't deserve to vote. Anyone that would think skin color makes one qualified is a born loser and a lifetime idiot. All we ended up with having Obama was another unqualified black in a government job and another black family in government housing.

    That's simply false. Where do you come up with this nonsense?

    Absolutely nothing. Even in Maine and Nebraska, two states that divide their EV by district and give the 2 representing the Senators to the overall winner in the state as a bonus, it didn't matter. In fact, in Maine, Hillary won 1 district and took the 2 Senator EVs as a bonus giving her 3 of 4. In Nebraska, there were only 2 counties where Hillary received close to 50% of the popular votes there.

    She keeps bringing up the nationwide popular vote totals also proving she doesn't understand how the system work nor why it was put in place.

    The only two places it could have possible played a role was in Maine and Nebraska as they divide their EV by district rather than winner take all. A quick look at Maine shows Hillary getting the highest vote total statewide, thus, receiving the 2 EV for the Senators and in 1 of the two districts giving her 3 of Maine's 4 EV. In Nebraska, there were only two counties where she came close to getting 50% of the popular vote.

    You stay ignorant don't you. Hillary knows well that the electoral college defeated her. She knows that better than you, because it happened to her. Try and parse this out. Trump does not have a mandate because he lost the popular vote. He is still president. he is still president. he is still president. Can you stop that crap now? We all know that and accept it. But Trump is such a floundering joke, that he are all in trouble because of the electoral college.

    Trump tried to fake caring about the shooting victims yesterday and he failed. They gave him a cheat sheet, because they knew he could not allow the people to know how little he gives a shit about them. It should have said, Pretend you care.https://www.local10.com/news/parklan...ing-i-hear-you

    Parse this out. Your bitch lost and you can't stand it. That you keep bringing up popular votes proves you're an idiot.

    If you gave a shit about the victims of things like Florida, you'd do something beside propose putting words on a piece of paper saying someone can't do something when it's been proven that doesn't work.

    Those words were put there by his staff because they know he has no empathy. They notes were given to him by his staff. Trump is not too bright. They have to find a way to keep him not let him hide what an asshole he is. Well, the rights anyway. The lefty knows what he is. I knew you did not know about the notes. That black hole of ignorance you live in, makes Trump possible.


    You stay dumb. The popular vote is about a mandate. Do you know what that is? Do you have a wisp of understanding its significance? answer hell no.

    Something that isn't used to determine the President can't produce a mandate. However, are you saying Hillary has one because she received more popular votes?

    920. Media and groups controlled by the Feds support Trump (8/26/2016)


    Here is another news to prove Clinton has to buy TV ad while Trump doesn't need to. He enjoys a free service from media. You also can notice that in each web site there is a plenty of topic to push for the popularity of Trump. Because that's the cyber space team the Feds deploy there. Supporting Trump now becomes a mission for them.

    Clinton, Allies Have Reserved $98 Million in Ads
    by CARRIE DANN


    Hillary Clinton and her allies are poised for a TV ad blitz of nearly $100 millin dollars, compared to less than $1 million currently reserved on the airwaves by backers of Donald Trump.

    t
    A mandate is what a president claims when he wins an overwhelming victory. He claims the people are on his side and they want him to take charge. In Trumps case, most of the people voted for hillary. That should make a president reluctant to do extreme actions. It should make him more humble. A mandate is the power of the people that is bestowed upon the winner. In trumps case, it is the power of the electoral college members. Not the same thing.

    How did she lose? Enough people in the US think that she would be worse than Trump. Says something about Hillary.

    I'm still glad each day when I wake up and not-Hillary is President. Too bad Trump is, yay it isn't Hillary.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
