Sorry Comrade Trump, you did NOT win the EV in a landslide.

Trump's place in history

Heightening the tension in recent weeks: Clinton actually won the popular vote by about 3 million -- making Trump the worst-performing winner in the popular vote since 1876.

Trump's victory is not, as he has described it, a landslide. He is expected to garner just 56.9% of the electoral vote, assuming all electors vote according to their states' results. That will give Trump the 44th-largest share of the electoral vote out of 54 presidential elections since the modern system started in 1804.



Of course that does not matter to your cult members who will believe any lie that comes out of your protruding lips...

Still crying and lying. True blue idiot to the end aren't you?

 

[AmericanFirst1]

I think it's great Trump won a mandate.....

He didn't even win the popular vote, Comrade.

You have been Trumped, get over it.

 

[NYcarbineer]

If Trump won a landslide,

what ISN'T a landslide?

 

[Camp]

Least amount of EC Votes for Dem since Reagan. Not a "landslide" but a good ole ass whoopin

The key is in understanding and acknowledging the meaning of "mandate". Mandate means the people and more importantly, the legislature is prepared to rubber stamp and support the elected candidate's proposals and positions on issues. That is not the situation Trump is in. He is nowhere near being in that position.

If Republicans could win California in its current state you would never win another presidential election again, comrade.

Reagan won California twice. Maybe the Republican Party should stop pretending it's the party of Reagan and instead BE the party of Reagan.

The mandate is for the Democrats to block anything and everything they can that does not favor the 65 million who voted Democrat in the election.

Wonder if his being the Governor of California, and a movie star, had anything to do with that?

 

[mrbojanglezs]

If you remove California, Trump wins the popular vote of the 49 other sates, there is your mandate. So he doesn't have a mandate over California, OK let them secede.

If Trump won such a big victory, why has he spent the last week running around the country doing campaign rallies?

To rub his victory in your leftist traitors faces.

I'm guessing you're a little man.

Are you ever right?

1. The left ran Hillary.

2. Normal, rational people got sick of being called a racist for 8 years because they didn't agree with a top-down, one-size-fits-all, overblown federal government shoving far left policies down their throats.

3. The left ran Hillary.


Three weeks before Election Day, as she sat at her kitchen table to fill out her ballot, Kim McKinney Cohen was angry and fed up. The Democratic Party, to which she had been unswervingly loyal for four decades, had sabotaged her chosen candidate, Bernie Sanders, and then lectured her about the need to vote for a woman whose hawkishness and arrogance rubbed her the wrong way. When Hillary Clinton said dismissively supporters of Donald Trump were “a basket of deplorables,” Cohen had heard enough.

“Well, then,” she sighed, "I guess I'm a deplorable.”

She took a black ink pen and carefully shaded in the rectangle next to the name Donald J. Trump.

Yes, little man, I'm right 98% of the time.

The terms landslide, popular vote, and mandate have no real meaning in a presidential election. They are just phrases invented by the punditocracy to garner advertising revenue..

One person wins. After that what matters is appointments, budgets, and signed laws, and to a certain 4 year limit, signed executive orders.

Reagan would do worse in California today than Trump did.

Stop pretending California was majority Hispanic 32 years ago.

The numbers don't matter. He won. He's President after his inauguration today.

And, as always, they'll claim a mandate, which is nothing more than an excuse to try to push their agendas down our throats.

They end up over-reaching and blowing it. That's why our political pendulum continues to swing back and forth.

The Dems did it beginning in 2008. Hardcore partisan ideologues just don't learn. They're just too full of themselves.

Will Trump be any different? It's possible, but looking at his cabinet picks, early signs are not promising.
.

I agree that it isn't a "landslide", but if you take Commiefornia out of the picture Trump won the PV by over a million. Outside of urban areas, Hitlery was wiped out. She was the worst possible pic the democrooks could have made.

However I don't see how his cabinet pics have been "partisan". I've listened to Levin a few times recently and he is losing his mind over the SoS pick and the democrook billionaires. Trump is not a partisan in any way. I have heard him proclaim democrooks are better stewards of the economy, and his pics illustrate he still believes it.

Except we don't take states out of the picture.

Trump won the EC with three key states and only by 77k votes.

You mean like the lie that Hillary was actually so popular yet lost even though she supposedly won by just under 3 million votes?

According to vote totals if you exclude one state, CA, Trump won the popular vote by 200,000 votes. Somehow one state generated enough votes to pass Trump by 2.8 million total votes. Considering the fact that Obama beat Romney by only 500,000, how do you suppose CA was able to create so many more votes for an unpopular ***** like Hillary Clinton?

here's a little handy dandy app that will shirley come in handy dandy to counter drumpf's lies in the future....

Now you can fact-check Trump’s tweets — in the tweets themselves

By Philip Bump December 16
On Friday morning, President-elect Donald Trump took a new tack in his war on the Russia hacking issue.

Are we talking about the same cyberattack where it was revealed that head of the DNC illegally gave Hillary the questions to the debate?

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 16, 2016

As our Dave Weigel noted, this isn't really accurate. There was nothing illegal at play, and Donna Brazile wasn't the head of the Democratic National Committee at the time that she leaked town hall questions to the Hillary Clinton campaign.

Weigel wrote a whole post about the issue — but people who just click through to the link see only Trump's claim, and none of the context.

and if he had only won one of those states, by a thousand or less, he STILL would be president-elect, wouldn't he?

The point was that it was very close. In no way a landslide.
