It's a dangerous precedent appeasing a facist, we already know what could happen....

He's married two immigrants to the US himself, proves once again they need immigrants to do jobs that most Americans wouldn't do...

Oh please don't go, us half-wits rely on you to portend the future and remind us of all the things which are wrong with Cyprus, Germany, the EU and the Euro.

On second thoughts....

You can go on repeating as much as you want about taking California out of the equation, but I am not interested. The USA is the USA is the USA. A majority of voters in the USA are anti Trump.

Had it been the other way round, and had Clinton won the election with a lower share of the popular vote than Trump, I may well have posted the facts on this forum, especially in response to any clichéd comments such as "the people have spoken" "the will of the people" "the electorate have decided" etc

Like it or not, according to the rules Trump won. And now he gets to implement the policies that he campaigned on just as all those that voted for him would expect.

As I said earlier, if Clinton had won yet Trump held the popular vote you wouldn't be arguing in the same way would you...?

Trump's a crackpot for sure but I agree with CG, he came first according to their system!

Why do you say "apparently"? There were either 4 or there were not 4. Are the facts in doubt, hence your qualification?

I am aware that George Dubbleya was the last elected president who lost the popular vote and what a shower he turned out to be.

Or should I write -
Absolutely brilliant for a "petty" "stupid" "half-wit".
Gosh -
And I thought this forum was supposed to be free of such pathetic personal comments.

There were 5 since the popular vote was first counted at the 1824 election. Those who won the election without winning popular vote are as follows :1824 John Quincy Adams, 1876: Rutherford B. Hayes, 1888: Benjamin Harrison, 2000: George W. Bush, and of course Trump.

I was actually addressing somebody who posted in one of the quotes you quoted. You weren''t to know that though. This thread is moving so fast it is difficult to keep up.
