The candidate with the majority didn't reach 270. The reason why she had the advantage because of California and the illegals that voted. You dems/libs call this election "unfair" and want to change things because Hillary lost? Even if you got rid of the Electoral College and still lost, you'll still whine how it's unfair and want the system change. This is what happens when we live in an "Everyone gets a trophy" generation. They don't know how to lose.

It's a friggin' out-of-control freak show.
A+ so far:

- Trump bump market jump (continuing the great success the Republican Congress the last 6+ years)
- Lowest unemployment rate in 17 years
- Record number of very happy Americans
- 75% reduction in illegal immigrants
- Vetting future terrorists
- Great judicial appointments
- ISIS wiped out of Mosul
- Got us out of the wealth draining from US to other despotic nations of the Paris dischord agreement

Really the chaos you care about I just don't....give me great results, I don't care whether it results from chaos or lack of chaos.

Wall Street and corporations seem to love Trump and the GOP as much or even more. Trump has appointed a whole lot of Wall Street types to key positions. Possibly more than any POTUS before him.

I refute that globalization is a "liberal" policy. It has always received bipartisan support. This is not even debatable.
Bipartisan? I had no idea that word was still used in American politics....I have watched Americans label themselves for years, but for the last two decades it has slowly become so extreme it is paralyzing your government to the point that nothing much gets done for the American people.

Think how much better things could be if both parties actually worked for their citizens...

They lost. We voted for the message . We are the ones responsible for the Trump win, Why hate Trump? We supporters created the win for Trump. You indirectly hate We The People and the our voting right in an election.

Actually, you the sheeple put him in office.

Trump is an idiot who left his fate to the even more clueless American public. Is there a law for being too stupid to vote???

I hate that people who his emonomic policies screw- ie, most of his voters- were brainwashed into voting for him and now have Stockholm syndrome. They are/were motivated by hate and greed.

I hate that the richer people who he voted for have such little compassion. They are also motivated by hate and greed.

Most everyone who I know who hates Trump are not "full of hate" as people on CD think.

WE HATE ALL OF THE HATRED THAT TRUMP REPRESENTS.

So true.

But, it is also a vicious circle. Apparently this is what the voters desire. Compromise, civility, diplomacy are like Elvis, they have left the building!

You are absolutely right. Don't blame Trump. He did everything he could to show he was incompetent and we voted him in anyway.

Also you are only part of the people. The half that did not vote for Trump is are still also part of "WE THE PEOPLE". I know as a Trump cult member you probably see that as more of an annoying thing to deal with but hey.... it is what it is.

He is draining the swamp, what he never told you was the drain leads directly to his administration.

I'm betting that even people that pulled the lever for Trump didn't expect this, how could anyone with any degree of common sense have wanted this disaster.
