Here are some FACTS on Trump's imaginary landslide victory:
In terms of his Electoral College margin, which will probably end up at 306 to 232, Trump will rank #46among the 58 presidential elections that have been held, or just above the bottom 20%.
In terms of his popular vote margin, Trump will probably end up with the third-worstpopular vote result ever, or if you prefer 56th ranked of the 58 winning candidates in history. (Obviously the 58 elections have produced 45 presidents, some of them winning two terms and FDR winning four.) This ranking is based on Trump’s losing the popular vote to Hillary Clinton by a little more than 2 percent, or a little less than 3 million votes. John Quincy Adams lost the popular vote by 10 percent in 1824 to Andrew Jackson, and also came in second in the electoral vote—but became president when the race went to the House, since none of the four candidates had an Electoral College majority. He is #58 out of 58, in terms of popular-vote mandate for winners. Rutherford B. Hayes, who won the electoral college while losing the popular vote by 3 percent to Samuel Tilden in 1876, is #57. Donald Trump, losing by 2 percent, is #56. Every president except J.Q. Adams and Hayes came to office with a stronger popular-vote mandate than Trump.
With 46 percent of the vote and 2 million less votes than Clinton. Clinton's 500 counties account for 65 percent of United States economic activity. The other 2,600 counties account for 35 percent of us economic activity. Trump won a whole lot of sparsely populated counties and only won the electoral college by 97,000 combined in 3 states. How is that a landslide? Probably 10 percent of those 46 percenters voted for trump because they disliked Clinton more
Trump supporters are proud of their candidate as he was so smart to see what was IMPORTANT to win which was the electoral vote.
Hillary proved that after decades of being a politician she had no clue that she needed to win the electoral vote.
Her campaign with all the fake news, lies and deceiving, only had a chance in their own minds and never thought the outcome would happen as it did.
This loss may hunt them for year or even decades as they lost the Supreme court and the trust of even their own voters and the Democratic party was exposed for what they really are.
Are you getting paid by the word? Or are you just a dyed in the wool propagandist?
Either way, I think you are approaching Trump overkill. Everyone knows he won. Your gloating isn't going to change that, and it won't change anyone who voted for Clinton's minds, for sure. Why not give it a rest until the guy has a chance to prove he's really worthy of your adoration?
Everyone knows he won? You wouldn't know that based on the threads started by Democrat sycophants every day about challenging the electoral votes, investigating the email controversy and on and on. Why would you expect Trump supporters to quit when Hillary die hards refuse to accept she lost?

So you are admitting that the fakes news, lies and deceits by others caused Hillary to lose. Yep, just what I thought.
But keep up the elitism, you'll guarantee Trump wins again in 2020 and another GOP candidate wins in 2024.
