California is a lost cause at this point (for conservatives). I say that with a sad heart as someone who was born, raised, and spent roughly half their life there. There are many beautiful places in the state, but the urban cesspools will determine the political course due to sheer numbers.

I am still surprised Trump had 4.2 million votes. I thought everyone in California was a hippy Libreal.

Nah, just the parts with strong, functioning economies.

Pretty much the usual. The economic engines vote blue and everywhere else votes red.

Exactly, the people with and education and a job vote rationally and the ones who still believe in the tooth fairy also tend to think that orange man will make America great again.

For using the EC to defeat liberals from the grave....brilliant and inspired.

About the mandate, I agree that Trump doesn't a mandate beyond what the Republicans generally have.

I think it's funny that people think Trump even cares... He is surely going to disappoint a lot liberals and not even care... #HillaryStillLost Merry Christmas...

But if Trump had won the popular vote and Clinton the EC, you'd be thanking God for the founding fathers, like montclair18.

All this proves the Electoral college was designed for a good reason, to not let the bigger states dictate the outcome.

Donald Trump won by the rigged system he was always talking about. He was MILLIONS of votes behind.
