It is pretty simple. Trump appealed to peoples senses of safety security and prosperity while Hillary promised increases in refugees, amnesty for illegal aliens, a tear down of the second amendment which would do nothing about crime while she blamed and made enemies of our Police and she had nothing on creating jobs or bringing companies back with tax breaks.

The People spoke loudly on Election day and I suspect they will speak again in 2018 if the Dems don't stop their negativity and could get back to work.

How on earth anyone thinks that posting a graphic of white votes is supposed to convince anyone there was a landslide is beyond me. A landslide of racism?

I'm done with this thread and the delusion that losing the popular vote by millions and eking out an historically small electoral college victory is a landslide.

So, you are admitting you are wrong, and that your "arguments" are also losers, right?

Can't say as I blame you.

Covfefe.

How many times are you and your ilk going to repeat this fake news?

You know (or at least should know) that many age eligible voters, did not cast a vote. Thus you cannot count them against one candidate or the other.
Close to 50% of all those who chose to vote cast their ballot for Trump. That is right, almost 63 million of the 128 million or so people voted for him.
Yet you take some figure, probably based on every citizen (eligible or not) and claim close to 75% didn't vote for him.
Well guess what, the same is then true of Hillary, right?
Sure she received more votes, but using your skewed numbers, you could say that close to 74% of the country didn't vote for her either.

So why would you make such a comment, other than hoping that low information voters will believe the same nonsense you repeated, thus trying to marginalize Trump in their eyes.

There wouldn't have been a Democrat president in close to the last 40 years if it was based on white voters. People have to understand the absolute need and desperation for pro immigration and the browning of america for the left to prevail. Sadly most republican are too stupid and cowardly to have slowed immigration

Immigration and demographic changes should be the major issue to republicans or the whole country will be a one party state like California

Though I get your point, there is a larger problem than just illegal aliens and immigration turning America brown.
It is also that whites are not having enough children, thus the native American population growth is falling behind what is needed to maintain the culture. Often the refrain is that they do not have enough money to raise kids, yet their parents and grandparents had plenty of children through tougher economic times.
Worse, through their taxes, they are supporting minorities to have a bunch of kids at taxpayers expense.
Now if all that makes you want to go wait until you watch this video, made some years ago talking about the Islamitization of Europe and potentially America;

I don't want anyone telling me how scared I should be. Flying is an absolute nightmare these days. I always set the machine off and if I don't they always pull me out to search me. Just blow me up. At least I will die knowing what freedom is.

The county I'm from in Colorado went red and it's showing blue here.

Think what you will

The following list of statistics has been making the rounds on the Internet and it should finally put an end to the argument as to why the Electoral College makes sense.

There are 3,141 counties in the United States.
Trump won 3,084 of them.
Clinton won 57.
There are 62 counties in New York State.
Trump won 46 of them.
Clinton won 16.
Clinton won the popular vote by approx. 1.5 million votes.
In the 5 counties that encompass NYC, (Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Richmond & Queens) Clinton received well over 2 million more votes than Trump. (Clinton only won 4 of these counties; Trump won Richmond)
Therefore these 5 counties alone, more than accounted for Clinton winning the popular vote of the entire country.
These 5 counties comprise 319 square miles.
The United States is comprised of 3, 797,000 square miles.
When you have a country that encompasses almost 4 million square miles of territory, it would be ludicrous to even suggest that the vote of those who inhabit a mere 319 square miles should dictate the outcome of a national election.
Large, densely populated Democrat cities (NYC, Chicago, LA, etc) don’t and shouldn’t speak for the rest of our country.

" But in Trump's warped world, reality is what he chooses it to be."

Odd post considering it is the left whining and screaming "but, she won the popular vote"!

Trump WON

It those like YOU who do NOT live in reality.

"because all those shadowy illegal aliens voted for Hilary Clinton"

Considering how Ca. and NY coddle the illegals it is NOT inconceivable.

Ca. even gives them a drivers license, and do NOT require a photo ID so how do you KNOW many illegals did or did NOT vote?

And if they did vote, the certainly did NOT vote for Trump.
