Let's call it what it is, when a group with minority support has absolute control of the country. You can see this in the US House, the Senate, and the presidency, when one party needs a 5 percentage point lead just to come in as a tie. You can see this in state legislatures where some are so gerrymandered that 60% of the vote still isn't enough for a majority. I live in a city actively badmouthed by the president, where the GOP takes one dollar of my taxes and puts 66 cents back into where I live.

If Trump ends up president due to winning the vote of state legislatures and not by the people, we can finally throw away all notions of being a free country.

I loved how the GOP senators represent less then half the population, and talk about the will of the people too.

Unlike the dems we don't cheat and we are in charge... so you can hardly call the GOP a minority.

We are the majority of legal american citizens.

You have a ton of illegals voting and or voter fraud.

Illegal immigrants can't vote. Even if a few did, that doesn't explain millions of votes going to Democrats and not Republicans. Why do you assume they'd vote Democrat btw?

I'm not surprised if there was a bit of voter fraud, but why is it assumed it's only Democrats doing it? Do you have any proof besides your feelings?

Um, yes they can.

I don't know why illegals would possibly vote for free handouts and promises of citizenship if they just squat for long enough... oh and free money?

Can't imagine why?

The GOP may represent less than half the population but Conservatism definitely represents more than half the nation. I cannot wait until 2022.
