Many conservatives are not happy with Trump at all. Trump supporters want to make it sound like its "Cons vs Dems" where conservatives are 100% Trump. They are not.

Sure he did. And Clinton got 3 mil more votes by winning over Republicans and Independents... what's your point?

I mean, seeing as how I am not registered to a party, I hope you weren't trying to stir up some sort of partisan response from me?

I know. I have a good many conservative friends.

I lean conservative on fiscal issues. I'm very left on most social stuff.

Same can be said about the last 8 years where y'all whined and whined about Obama continuously.

Seems like there are many Trump supporters who appear to be spending all their waking hours here defending Trump. As they like to say so often, they won. So why don't they get on with their lives and do something constructive instead of worrying about what other people are saying about him?

What? You might want to brush up on the Electoral College.

The EC is neither pleased or displeased with a candidate. The electors cast votes in favor of the candidate that got the most votes in their given region.

I was merely pointing out that this country is made up of INDIVIDUALS.

We are not all members of groups, based on EC votes, that tell us who we are supposed to support.

By that rationale, a person who voted Trump that lived in a blue state would be forced not to support him.

And, a person who voted for another candidate, but lived in a red state would be forced to support Trump.

No. That is not how human minds work.

That's what the Democrats got when they cheated the primaries.
