That's the whole point of the electoral college, United States is not a democratic system, it's a republic style system

GET IT FOR ONCE.
He won the presidency by electoral votes but lost the popular vote. I get what you're saying but his sorry arse is in the White House and we have to respect that.

I live in a democracy you live in a thing pretended to be a democracy. You are expected to fight to defend a government which doesn't represent you and which arrived ther against the will of the people. Good luck with that.

Of course I don't live in a democracy - I live in a republic country. I've never pretended otherwise.

SO THERE IS NO ISSUE.

We are not a democracy. We are a Republic. We elect our president by the electoral system. By that system, Trump won.

That's like saying that a baseball team scored more runs in the world series, even though the other team won more games, therefore the team with the most runs is the "real" winner. That's not how it works.

All I see are sore loser Dems crying that they were beat. Fairly. Legally.
