    Of course it does. Whoever wins the EC, get's the power to enact their mandate.

    Hillary had the most faithless electors.

    They get the office. They don't necessarily gain the acceptance. Trump was rejected by more people than accepted him. Watch that number grow.

    Trump had no path to 270.

    He had a path to 304 instead.

It is the METHOD in which we elect our President. Two different animals. Comprende, moron?
    Actually it is national sentiment, whereas the pop vote was one state.

    Try again.

    I already listed the states. New England, west coast, CO, NM, MN, IL. Is that one state?

    That's versus the Bible Belt, backwards south, and barely squeaking by the rust belt. Sorry, your boy has fewer people for him than against him.

    Doesn't matter....They both knew the rules of being elected and ran their campaigns with those rules in mind...The problem was that the criminal Hillary put too much faith in the MSM that they would be able to pull it off for her, and thus didn't campaign like she wanted it....Not to mention that she is just horrible....

    beating Hillary soundly and holding a majority of the house and senate and being able to pick the new SC justices is enough of a mandate to satisfy even the most demanding politician........
