So now the GOP guy has to run ads in NY and LA to generate more votes.

She wants totalitarianism.

She’s correct if all votes were not fraudulent.
But then Trump would have won bigly.

Unfortunately, Clinton got 4,835,234 votes from illegal aliens, dead people, multiple-voters, dual state voters, etc., in California, New York, Virginia, Florida and Illinois.

Discussions of republic vs. democracy notwithstanding, it’s not healthy if the president of the entire country is chosen by New York City and coastal California.

Maybe she should just read up on the Electoral College to find out why they came up with the system.

I recommend for everyone..."55 Men and the Constitution".

We are a Democratic Republic.

A Constitutional Republic.

Well Senator and I use that term loosely, America is NOT a Democracy, healthy or unhealthy. We are not running a TV popularity show. We are trying to run an Country. Our form of Government is called a constitutional federal republic. We follow the US Constitution to choose our President. So instead of just California and New York City electing every President in every election, all of the States that make up our Republic get to have a say in electing our president. So you see we actually are using a fair means to elect our President. Perhaps you should take a refresher class or tow in US Government! Might be helpful!

“In 2016, nearly three million more people voted for Hillary Clinton than Donald Trump – but Trump took the presidency.

Incorrect statement. Trump WON the Presidency. In the same manner that every other President before him did.

You would think that Harvard University and the U. S. Senate would have good remedial civics courses. They apparently need them.

And we have no Constitution if those who don’t understand the difference between a Democratic Republic and a Democracy keep getting elected - she showed her ignorance of the government she is part of...

She was there when the votes were counted . As was VP Joe Biden. Where was her objection?

As Trump said, if the election were decided by popular vote, he would have campaigned differently and still have won. Spend more time in California and other states.

For Squaw Grey Beaver a healthy Democracy is bring in unlimited people from 3rd word socialist crap holes. Giving the ghetto’s just enough money to stay enslaved and pandering for their votes while keeping Millennial’s dumbed down and feeling guilty for all of the Societies wows that Democrats (and squishy Redumblicans) created.
