Factor in how many Americans didn't vote at all and it's statistically insignificant.

And you're still whining when you bring it up. .
Even following your convoluted logic more people voted against Trump's agenda

Then there is CNN, NBC, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, PBS, the New York Times, Washington Post, the AP, Huffpo, etc. Maybe stop watching, and reading those. There are many, many more Leftist propaganda sources out there. All support Democrats.

Agendas come and go but our fine President Trump is here to stay.
He truly has saved the day/country.

I'll let those interested in his golf score today know as soon as its available.

I'd wager that HRC can't articulate leadership in one sentence.

Someone with earned leadership experience would be able to. A close observer of teams and leadership can convey what it takes, but that usually requires significant experience in highly skilled groups. After that, experience leading is key.

Examples of leadership experience that would be valid for later leading the nation:

Team captain in a physically grueling sport at a high level
Eagle Scout
Military leadership
Governor
CEO of a significant company
etc.

Anyone who isn't an experienced leader of a group of highly skilled people is going to have a very hard time being elected president in this nation, perhaps unless you are a special-interest sweetheart.

Which is ultimately the tack HRC took, unsurprisingly, likely because of her obvious lack of leadership ability. Unfortunately, her chosen self-anointed position as the risen-queen of her demographic wasn't as compelling as "First Black President".

She seems to still have a hard time resolving that fact.

She didn't have the air of a leader, which is why she isn't president. Its really no more complicated than that. Though her air of corruption also didn't help.

See AnesthesiaMD's post (which is also the first thing I think about when someone brings up the popular vote re the Presidency...especially re this last election).

In fact more people didn't want Trump than did.
In fact more Republicans voted against Trump as a Presidential candidate than did.

It just is. Yeah he's President. Yeah he won....but it is what it is - most people did not vote for him for President.
Most people didn't vote for Hillary either.

Hillary got a plurality, not a majority.

It started while she was SoS, but she's really become the excuse maker.

I love how people chastise posters commenting on NEWS about her. She's the one making the stupid comments in the press every other week. Stop trying to stifle threads about it just because it wounds you in some way.

Why?

What do you care?

Why do you have to report every little thing you gett your hands on about the book/tour?

Let it go.
Why do you care if anyone reports about it?

No one forced you to read this thread.
