There is no reason Trump should be President............................ Can we say the same about JFK? Nixon won the popular vote in 60’. Where was the outrage then? Forget it, they wouldn’t understand, Americans were different back then, they hadn’t learned to whine yet, because we were too tough for that.

Wikipedia actually says JFK won slightly more. “In the national popular vote, Kennedy beat Nixon by less than two tenths of the one percentage point (0.17%)—the closest popular-vote margin of the 20th century. In the Electoral College, Kennedy’s victory was larger, as he took 303 electoral votes to Nixon’s 219; 269 were needed to win. A total of 15 electors—eight from Mississippi, six from Alabama, and one from Oklahoma—refused to vote for either Kennedy or Nixon.”

JFK 34,220,984
Nixon 34,108,157
If all of the faithless electors went to Nixon he’d still have only 234.

Only liberal outrage in refusal to accept what is Constitutional in their lust for power, is acceptable to the MSM overall. But once again, in the interest of accuracy:

The following United States presidential elections are the elections in which the candidate who became President received neither a plurality or majority of the popular vote. This has occurred on five occasions.

• 1 Elections
  • 1.1 1824: John Quincy Adams [Democratic-Republican]
  • 1.2 1876: Rutherford B. Hayes [Republican]
  • 1.3 1888: Benjamin Harrison [Republican]
  • 1.4 2000: George W. Bush [Republican]
  • 1.5 2016: Donald J. Trump [Republican]
