Gloria Steinem: Trump Is Not The President Because 'He Lost By 10 Million Votes'

Yeah, not to get your blood pressures to spike over the weekend, but some on the feminist Left just need to accept that 2016 happened and they lost. It doesn’t matter that Hillary Clinton got more popular votes either; that’s not how you win the presidency. We all know this. Now, as we enter the 2018 midterm season, we still have some who just can’t stand that Trump won, that he’s president, and that Hillary Clinton will never be president—ever. Enter Gloria Steinem who says she doesn’t think Trump is president because he lost by 10 million votes. No, he didn’t (via New England Cable News):

Hundreds of women and men came to the opening night of the Massachusetts Conference for Women to hear Gloria Steinem speak. The feminist icon told the crowd Wednesday that sexual harassment is about power, not sex, and she said women are gaining their voices in a way that's never happened before. The 83-year-old didn't not mince words on power and politics. On the national conversation about sexual misconduct, she pointed to the top. "He's not the president," Steinem said of Donald Trump. "He lost by 10 million votes. I never called him president once, he's the harasser-in-chief and part of the reason, at this point, people are so frustrated." Again, that’s not how we decide the president, Ms. Steinem. Trump had a decisive 304-227 Electoral College victory over Hillary. That’s why he’s president. The willful ignorance of ignoring this aspect of the Constitution just shows you how liberals just make up the rules and move the goal posts when things don’t go their way. It’s their hallmark characteristic. Also, by “people,” you mean liberals right, Gloria?

Yet, it’s par for the course for Steinem and her ilk. Our gal couldn’t hack it, so no one really won or something. Indeed, I can understand the anger; this was one of the most winnable elections for Democrats, who blew it when they nominated Lady Macbeth to be their standard bearer. The Left shouldn’t be angry at Trump for winning, they should be more infuriated with Hillary for losing. She could have won this election if she had an economic agenda and political skill. She had neither. Some things can’t be fixed, but there certainly were other areas that she could have improved on to better her chances, like campaigning aggressively in the Rust Belt.

Sure, Gloria. Hillary Clinton is President and it was great seeing President Gore responding to 9-11. The nationwide popular vote doesn’t determine who is elected President!

You might come close to ten million if you counted all the other candidates votes for Hillary, because everyone knows Libtarian voters were just about to vote for her.

Gloria Steinem was one of the feminists who supported the RAPIST PRESIDENT ....Tried to destroy the victims...I have found when people give you a pass after doing awful things to others,it’s because those enablers got a deal.

The deal was abortions. Abortions for all, anytime, anywhere. Abortions as far as the eye could see.

This malignancy-on-civil-society wretch is a bitter, angry old hag. Much of this vitriol is because at some level she realizes her life has been worse than worthless. Soon she will go on to Judgment.

Donald Trump isn’t the President? Strange, I’m pretty sure I saw him be certified as the winner during the joint session of Congress when the votes were tallied and then be sworn in as President, and I’m pretty sure he’s living in the White House now. He decisively won the election, 304 votes to 227, and he didn’t “lose” the non-existent “popular vote” by anywhere near 10 million votes, either.

Not just any abortions...The right to exterminate the black population and Clinton allowed them to get away with genocide, so they allowed him a pass on rape...20 million black babies murdered through abortion,even the kkk never came up.with numbers like these...Millions more never born through birth control and sterilization...Democrats and Planned parenthood are so good at getting rid of blacks,they had to bring in Mexicans and hispanics to keep dems in power.
