Trump could not have won California even if he would have campaigned there. The demographics today are very unfavorable to the GOP. I predict that in the future, California will tilt even more overwhelmingly blue than it already is. When Orange County is no longer voting Republican, you know that the party is done in the state.
If the will of the people counted, there would be 0 illegal aliens in this country.
Trump won......Merry Christmas.

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.
Landslide by Trump? Hardly. A weak victory at best.
You started a topic where you said that Hillary was going to have a 400 Electoral Vote Blowout leaving Trump with 138. Instead Trump won 306 Electoral votes.
This means, that by your own stated standard, Trump out performed by 121%. Your standard, not mine. It's indeed a blow out; For Trump.
No wonder you only talk about the popular vote now.
Trump's own polling guru, "veteran Tony Fabrizio, said just five counties made the difference: four in Florida and one in Michigan." Fabrizio said Trump's victory was not a landslide and if Clinton had won in those five counties, she would be President-Elect today.
You forget that you started a topic here where you told us that Hillary would win with 400 electoral votes leaving Trump with just 138.
Trump outperformed your own standard by 121%. Your words, not mine.
Yep, looks like the will of the people is not always what counts !
It's the will of the people who understand the United States Constitution and our election system that counts. We've coddled ignorant people in this country for far too long. Anyone who is truly upset about the "popular" vote is an idiot, we have the electoral college for a good reason and this election proved to us exactly why we have it.
Pop goes the Trump bubble from someone on his own side who is making the case that is patently obvious to everyone but him and his minions.
Namely, that his election was not a landslide as he claimed last night in his little victory tour, and that he has Jim Comey to thank for being an accidental President.
He needs to stop patting himself on the back, get off of twitter, read some intelligence briefings, do some homework, and really get ready for the most difficult job on earth. Tick Tick Tick Donny.
Just sayin!
The "Accidental President"-------that's a great title. I wonder who they could get to play him in the movie? It would probably be categorized as in the "Theatre of the Absurd". To explain for Trump supporters, that's an actual type of satirical comedy that many educated people have encountered.
The electoral college system at the very least should be tweaked.
There is no good reason that a Wyoming voter should be worth 3.8 times the vote of a California voter.
Yeah, it's a damned shame every state gets at least one Representative (California has 55) and two Senators. What were they thinking back then?
And Trump still won a majority in the rest of the country
I didnt vote for him, nor Clinton, but it's past time you guys suck it up and stop complaining.
