When we GET RID of the Electoral College, THEN, we can get to a system where "every vote counts".
And why exactly should all of those states vote to get rid of the electoral college and reduce their power? Day after day liberals harp about how people should vote in their own best interest so why suddenly do you think they should vote against their interest and give California and New York the power to decide who is President?
How people can be so obsessed with Hillary is beyond my comprehension. Perhaps if you have a criminal streak.
I agree but we have some in our area; one person I know, a single middle aged lady would not even go to Thanksgiving dinner with friends, she needed time to mourn and wanted to just be left alone. We have a foster daughter in Portland who just wanted to run away after the election.
Why didn't they give Dewey a chance instead of Truman? Or Stevenson instead of Eisenhower? Or Mondale instead of Reagan?
Answer: They LOST.
Son...here is some motherly advice. You will someday regret that you wasted months of your precious 20's (years you can never get back) obsessing about that crorked, screetchy, ugly looking old hag, Hillary Clinton, someone who neither knows you or gives a hoot about you.
For all you Die Hard Trump supporters, let's just see what you think after the first 2 yrs. when you start whining and screaming, "do it in the mirror", because it will be and should be directed at yourself.
You whined and cried for 8 yrs and never once became aware that it was YOUR Republican Congress that gridlocked to create stagnation. Thank Goodness President Obama was smart enough to work around it and get things done.
Now, a man is in office (Trump) that does not have a clue as to what's happening on the world stage. He's doing a shoot from the hip and hope he hits something,while playing ego games on Twitter.
Looks like he wants to set up for a military coup-- and install himself as dictator. (It probably won't be a problem for Republicans, because they love being led and directed just like the pawns they have been fighting to remain being for decades upon decades.)
But, if you think your Idol Trump is going to put money in your pocket, then it only goes to show, that you again put money above everything else. But Trump being Trump, he's likely to take money from your pocket, not put money in it.
Yea.... we know, but you won't say it outwards, that your mantra is "hail money", to heck with anything else.
After Trump, red states will still be as backwards as ever, and filled with public service riders looking for hand-outs and lying to themselves with the same dumb phrase, about "pulling themselves up by the boot straps' (go ahead and try it and see how quick you fall on your face or your arse). that's how dumb the phrase is.
Maybe Trump can create a smog cloud over the the entire US, like they use to have in California's Los Angeles, until they realized it was people and cars that created the smog. Trumper's have not figured that out yet, or why Beijing had such a problem with smog during the Olympic's. If many of his die hard followers are anything like what we saw on Television, then America surely is on a well oiled piece of glass slinking downwards.
Now, that being said,... for the sake of America, I'd hope that Trump proves me wrong.
You so realize not everyone who voted for him loved or loves him. Or I hope you realize that. So far, he might still need to keep his mouth shut more, but he has made some good and some very good appointments and we all have to hope he will turn out to be a great or good president. Right now, what needs to happen, is: 1-the media give him a fair shake and 2-Clinton supporters need to get over their obsession with her loss.

He was in the anger stage on his thread, "It's Been Two Weeks Since Hillary Lost", or something to that effect. He was raging about how rustbelt whites are to blame, they hate women, and elderly women will never see a woman president, etc. etc. The way he was carrying on about unfairness to women made me think "she" was a feminist until he identified himself as a 20-something "minority" (didn't identify what kind) male. Which makes it odd that he is obsessing over a crooked old crone like Hillary.
It's the "Depression" stage that has me thinking "Psych Ward".
BTW. I'm a middle aged woman and I couldn't give a rat's a** if I never see a woman president in my lifetime.
Fair enough.

The first two states CA and NY got the most illegal votes for Hillary. 25% of all illegals in the United States live in California. Millions of them.
