The problem is that it's not just LA and NYC.

Virtually EVERY major city in the U.S. is liberal and democrat.

He was a violent criminal, but what encounter with a police officer where a perp ends up dead doesn't have the cop saying "he went for my gun"?

Seriously, did any eyewitness actually corroborate the "went for my gun"?

From what I remember, it was "a struggle" and maybe some punches. How could an eyewitness see inside the car? That's sounds like the officers story, no one elses.

There was forensic evidence that proved it. Direct from DOJ - knock yourself out.

Actually its the exact opposite. In the context of voting, "The People" IS the electoral college. For all practical purposes there is absolutely NO SUCH THING AS THE "POPULAR VOTE", which she wouldn't have won anyways if it not for illegals voting in states like CA. Sorry snowflake, you don't get to change the rules that elections have gone by for hundreds of years just because you don't like the outcome.

By "system" I'm not entirely sure what you're referring to. But Hillary Clinton was by far and large the preferred candidate of the largest corporations, big money donors, banks, foreign interests, and of course the mainstream media. If those entities aren't "the system" then I don't know what is. And if you're speaking of our government democratically held election as the "system" that you rail against then perhaps you'd be better suited living in a country with no such election to disappoint you, like North Korea.

The silent majority got sick and tired of the liberals running this country in the ground and acted.

Clinton total vote: 62,013,985.

Combined total of Trump, Johnson, and Stein: 66,208,935.

More people *didn't* vote for Clinton than did. Let that sink in.
Hahaha chica Im not the one twisting facts. Jill Stein Im sure aligns herself with Donald Trump.

Otherwise, Clinton has the most votes. More American voters chose Hillary Clinton vs. every other candidate.

Trump was chosen by an antiquated system that favors angry white voters.

So yeah..

As soon as you typed *otherwise* your argument became null.

More people voted for other candidates than they did Clinton. She did not receive "the people's vote".

He won the votes that matter. He even won PA, MI, and WI which surprised many. Electoral college wise(the ONLY factor that matters in an election) he won convincingly. Get over it.

It would be more constructive for you to get to work on that petition for California to leave the USA, since obviously you and many others don't care for the ways of this country anymore. A lot of us would be happy to see your state leave the union anyways.
