Now that the vote didn't come out like they want this time, they want to do the same thing....and in a ironic twist, they are out screaming that she won more actual votes...and 'the will of the people' should rule the day.

One thing the Electoral College was designed to do is hedge against the "tyranny of the majority." In this case, Hillary spent all of her time with populous large cities on the two coasts. She largely ignored the "fly-over" states. The Electoral College provides incentive for candidates to try to win across a broad range of states, not just the ones where you think you can win.

I know. I got an invitation to sign this piece of shit too. Don't these kids know that this is not how our government works??

doesn't it?

they've grown up with elections being overturned in courts, why would they think this one was different?

when California voted down gay marriage, they ran to the courts...the courts gave them what they wanted.

Now that the vote didn't come out like they want this time, they want to do the same thing....and in a ironic twist, they are out screaming that she won more actual votes...and 'the will of the people' should rule the day.

and when you point that out, they don't understand why it's ironic.

Eleven years ago, Trump said on a secretly recorded tape that celebrities can do anything — even grab a woman’s p*ssy.

“He won’t be so confident when he sees my p*ssy.” – Mrs Slocombe

The shocking pain of American men

The Washington Post
Jeff Guo

Once upon a time, nearly every man in America worked. In 1948, the labor-force participation rate was a staggering 96.7 percent among men in their prime working years.

That statistic has been steadily declining ever since. Today, about 11.5 percent of men between the ages of 24-54 are neither employed nor looking for a job. Economists say that these people are “out of the labor force” — and they don’t figure into statistics like the unemployment rate.

This demographic trend has been the subject of much noise and consternation lately. Nicholas Eberstadt, a demographer at the conservative American Enterprise Institute, calls the development a “quiet catastrophe: the collapse, over two generations, of work for American men.”

Eberstadt concedes that he can’t pinpoint the precise causes, but he implies that the problem, at its root, emanates from some kind of moral or societal dysfunction.

“Time-use surveys suggest [these men] are almost entirely idle,” Eberstadt wrote in a Wall Street Journal op-ed a few weeks ago. “Unlike in the past, the U.S. is now evidently rich enough to carry them, after a fashion,” he added.
