On Obama’s Remarks and Clinton’s Concession Speech

This is the first time Obama and Trump have met face to face, according to a White House official.

However, Trump was declared elected as he has got 306 Electoral College votes as against Clinton’s 232.

Leaving behind the bitterness of the election campaign, US President-elect Donald Trump has praised Hillary Clinton whom he defeated in shocking poll results, calling the former secretary of state as “very strong and smart”.

While voters’ intensely negative views of the major candidate they opposed may explain their willingness to question the overall result, another factor may be the unexpected nature of Trump’s win and a split between which candidate won the electoral college and popular vote.

In Tuesday’s election, Trump won the Electoral College by achieving narrow wins in several large states that had previously voted for President Obama, including Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio.

He had during campaigns said that the media were corrupt. Three of the votes were electors who chose to abstain and the rest were changed based on an elector’s personal feelings.

Our message to all state governments: Please join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, and abolish the electoral college.

It was confirmed yesterday that vice-president-elect Mike Pence will lead president-elect Trump’s transition team, replacing New Jersey governor Chris Christie.

Obama campaigned vigorously for Clinton; he portrayed Trump correctly as an unbalanced tweet-obsessed fanatic who is unfit to be the nation’s commander-in-chief, a man who is long on rhetoric and short on substance.

More than half of voters said the economy was the top issue facing the country, and they split their votes between Clinton and Trump.

“Political experts insisted that it was folly for Trump and his team to believe MI and Wisconsin were within their grasp”. The constitutionality of those laws isn’t totally clear, in part because they have been so rarely tested – The Daily Dot reports that there have only been 157 faithless electors in all of US history.

Trump also said that he favored maintaining a prohibition on insurance companies denying consumers coverage based on so-called pre-existing conditions.

“I just had the opportunity to have an excellent conversation with President-elect Trump”, Barack said.

Third, Clinton’s support for increasing the number of Syrian refugees by 550 percent, and the number of refugees overall, was very unpopular with middle-class voters, especially in MI and Minnesota.
