Electoral College Failure
“Make America Great Again” is a very clever scheme because it portrays Trump trying to work for the betterment of the United States. But, as it turns out. It’s real purpose is to make Trump appear great. And, how do we measure how great or not is the United States? Has Trump improved the country? If so. How? Compared to which prior president?
Trump’s purpose in life is to fulfill and enhance his own selfish work efforts and his own perceived personal value.
Trump is allegedly a self centered narcissist. Allegedly, he is known to be a lier.
He has already proven to be a criminal facing numerous criminal court cases.
One of the most surprising events that propelled Donald Trump down our future was making him president of the United States, a surprising incredible feat. This single result has cemented him into our lives way more than if he never became president.
Trump won the 2016 presidential election as the Republican nominee against Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton while losing the popular vote.
POPULAR VOTE TOTALS:
Hillary Clinton vote totals: 65,853,625 votes (48.0%)
Donald Trump vote totals: 62,985,106 votes (45.9%)
Hillary Clinton WON!
Except for the the flawed somewhat corrupt Electoral College which made the final decision to give the presidency to Trump.
Electoral College VOTE TOTALS:
Hillary Clinton vote totals: 232
Donald Trump vote totals: 306
He won for a number of minor if not flawed reasons:
– He was running against a women. There has never been a woman president in the United States. Sexist bias may have been a factor.
– African-Americans did not turn out for Hillary as strongly as they did for Obama.
– Clinton made a big mistakes with this group — calling half of Trump supporters “deplorables”.
– 7 Reasons Donald Trump Won The Presidential Election

- The Electoral College favors battle ground states by giving them more importance.
Each state gets as many electors as it has members of Congress (House and Senate). Including Washington, D.C.’s three electors.
Each state’s political parties choose their own slate of potential electors.
The Constitution does not require electors to vote for the candidate chosen by their state’s popular vote which should be a crime.
As it stood in this election, the somewhat low IQ battle ground states voted Republican.
States such as California, overwhelmingly voted for Hillary Clinton. This method is contrived to be unfair because the person with the most votes should win but does not become president until the Electoral College says so. Hillary Clinton received the most votes, thus making a mockery out of the US Electoral System. She won! Not Trump! We now have a former president that is an alleged criminal.
