Only losers critical of Electoral College

I can’t say I voted for him, but it doesn’t matter, since IL voted Democrat.

“We actually went to about 22 states, whereas if you’re going for popular vote, you’d probably go to four, or three, it could be three”, Trump told The New York Times on Tuesday.

Clinton now has 64,227,373 votes to Trump’s 62,212,752.

But. As long as the Electoral College is there, it should perform the function the Framers had in mind: preventing the election of a demagogue. “I don’t want to hurt the Clintons, I really don’t”.

But Donald Trump ran as the Wolfman.

Trump won numerous states by relatively small margins, while Clinton, a former USA secretary of state who was looking to become the country’s first female president, piled up a huge vote count edge in California and NY.

Some of Donald Trump’s strongest conservative supporters are voicing anger and disappointment at the president-elect’s comments on Tuesday that he might back off his campaign pledge of pursuing a prosecution of former rival Hillary Clinton. During their second debate, Trump told the person he labeled “Crooked Hillary”, “If I win, I am going to instruct my attorney general to get a special prosecutor to look into your situation”.

Earlier, Trump had called climate change a “hoax” perpetrated by China and vowed to “cancel” the hard-fought Paris Agreement concluded previous year to limit risky global warming.

Even before Trump’s Times interview, readers at Breitbart News-a publication co-founded by Trump’s chief strategist, Steve Bannon, that led cheerleading efforts for Trump throughout the 2016 election-began to freak out.

Trump still has a well-known climate skeptic, Myron Ebell, as head of his U.S. EPA transition team. Trump had “earned a mandate”, declared House Speaker Paul Ryan, hailing his win as evidence that the American people had overwhelmingly rejected social liberalism and other hypocritical affectations of the cultural elite. But he later expressed his desire to improve his relationship with the newspaper, saying, “I’d like to turn it around”.

Trump then: “Real change begins with immediately repealing and replacing Obamacare”, he said on the eve of the election.

Trump will not officially become president until the ballots from the Electoral College are cast on December 19. And he has to say it not to the New York Times, he has to say it to his own people.

Now: “I have great respect for the New York Times”.
