The "narrowest of margins" makes the difference between a president and NOT a president. Doesn't matter if it is 1 county or 100. The results are still the same. This reminds me of the old joke from medical school; What do you call the guy who graduated last in his medical school class? .....Doctor
And we can say Trump has a mandate or Trump doesn't have a mandate all we want. It doesn't mean anything. The whole idea of a "mandate" is ridiculous. It's just something we say to make ourselves feel better about our win or our loss. Whether or not he has a mandate is solely decided by congress. Our opinion doesn't make it so, or not so, and neither does the electoral vote. If he can get stuff passed, he has a mandate. If he can't, he doesn't.
Oh yeah, they are taking SO many jobs that Americans could have. Like picking fruit and vegetables, lawn maintenance , etc. Hell, we can't even get Americans to do easy jobs, let alone these back breaking, low paying , menial tasks that the illegals are happy to have. I've lived in States that utilize illegal alien labor, and those guys work their tails off under conditions you and I would not accept. Contrary to Trump, not all of them are murderers, rapists, etc. Some are just family people, looking for a better life.
But I digress.
It has nothing to do with jobs, Americans on both sides of the aisle abhore criminals, We despise those who thumb there nose at our law. If there was a popular vote, Americans would overwhelmingly agree to round them up and ship them out.
It is only a small minority of liberals that support the illegals.

Just untrue. Small percentage of Americans favor complete deportation. See Gallup. Large majority favor allowing some to stay.
But it fails to do what you just claimed, certainly it gives small rural states an advantage, but it disadvantages racial and ethnic minorities who have large populations in urban areas in California and New York. Each elector in lily white Wyoming has the same impact as 5 electors in California in deciding the outcome of the election...so how is that fair?
We can always scrap the Constitution and go with a direct democracy, that way the majority could vote as to not allow California to vote in any election.
