She's a two-time loser, not the people's president. But I guess we could all chip in and buy her one of those fake title belts from the WWE website and spell out "The People's President" in Swarovski crystals if it makes her feel better.

That would be disappointing but no.

Hillary won the popular vote against Obama too. No complaints then when they gave the nomination to Obama.

Yep.

It is also, IMO, contrary to the American spirit. If you don't like something don't whine and spout ineffective nonsense, take action and work to change what you don't like. Even though Obama (IMO) has an unpatriotic attitude on some levels, he understands this. During I believe more than one speech (but it might have been just one) toward the end of the campaign the crowd booed in agreement with something he was saying about the opposition. Obama's immediate (and right on the money, IMO) response...."Don't boo, vote".
