If you try to impeach Trump, the American people will not stand for it
That's probably true in my case. I imagine I won't stand for it --- I'll sit back with a beer and some munchies, cheering on my team like a spor
Clearly there's some confusion as to the definition of "majority".
To be fair, there was a majority of the electorate that turned out to vote. Barely. 45% said "fuck it, there's nothing worth voting for" and stayed home. That leaves 55% of the electorate that did vote, which is abysmal for a nation that purports to have championed this process, however it is more than half.
Of that 55%, 54% voted for somebody who does not paint him/herself orange.
That leaves Rump with 46% of the 55%, which boils down to 25% of the electorate.
Now tell the class what color the sky is on a planet where 25% constitutes a "majority".
The majority that elected him as President.
Once AGAIN --- there is no "majority" in the figure of 25%. Nor is there any "majority" in 46%.
Cannot be done.
I see the world of Fake News has branched out to Fake Math. Ah, the opaque bubble of self-delusion....
He beat Hillary. The only way to do that is to have a majority of active voters voting for him.
You STILL haven't seen the numbers?

What do you do, go24/7?
He got the majority in every state he won the electoral votes. Popular vote doesn't count in this country.
