Yes, I gladly concede that the system selected Donald Trump.
No, millions of people around the UNITED states elected him. Sorry, the rest of the country doesn't give 2 butt chocolates about what California wants.
You are really just showing your ignorance here. Let it go. I am not going to do the big, detailed post I have done on similar threads, but just to cover the points:
1) Hillary lost. Period
2) We have an electoral college for a reason. It did what it is suppossed to do.
3) There are no direct democracies in the world, because they don't work
4) Trump campaigned to win the system we have, Hillary campaigned to lose and cry about it
5) Were it a popular vote, Trump might have won anyway. He could have picked up more votes in central Cali and upstate New York. He didn't have to.
6) What you need to be crying about is how the Democratic primaries are rigged, as demonstrated by Obama beating Hillary with the help of super delegets in 2008, and the corruption exposed by wikileaks against Sanders this year
7) You are ignoring the wider destruction of your party on all levels of government.
Now, this is the big one:
8) Obama was on TV a week before the election urging illegals to vote. You "popular vote victory" is simply not legitimate.
You and your party have a lot of soul searching to to, and a lot of ground to make up. I suggest you get to it.
