LOL you can't dismiss California voters though. They live in the US too. Why should Montana with under a little over 700,000 get 3 electoral votes while Maryland gets 11 electoral votes with over 5 million people.

The bigger question is will they attend his coronation as Emperor for Life. And you thought he was running for President, silly people.

Yes you can. As long as the state mindlessly votes for on political party like a 3rd world country, then it's vote only matters to that political party. This is why neither Clinton nor Trump spent any time campaigning in the largest state in the USA and instead spent huge amounts of time campaigning in a state like NC.

If California wants it's citizens votes to matter in national elections, then it change elector selection to proportional like ME & NE instead of winner take all.

Ahh yeah, the Democrats running that state don't want it.

(Here's a tip. Study the US Constitution if you really don't know why? Don't like it, then work to change it.)

BTW, the topic isn't about and what I like or dislike.

I take it you don't have anything to say about the topic based on logic or fact.
"I take it you don't have anything to say about the topic based on logic or fact"

Correct.

There is NOTHING "logical" or "factual" about the post.

Just more, crying and whining because you CAN'T accept that your "smartest woman in the world " lost AGAIN for the presidency.

I read, "We survived the Obama Presidency, we can survive the Trump Presidency!"

Enough is enough. It's about time all you snowlflakes grow up a little. We are tired of your adolescent antics.

It boggle MY mind that some STILL don't know how the EC works and why we use it.

The more people who avoid the appearance of supporting Trump the better. He is too stupid to understand that without support from those who have gone before him, the more difficult it will be for him to implement his "policies" (which is probably a good thing).

Many who have gone before him are the same ones who caused the issues that he's been elected to fix, of course they'll be against him implementing anything that screws up their plans to screw us all.
