Well yes. The voting citizens do not elect the president. The president is elected by the politicians in power (state by state) through the delegate process. The popular vote is just eye wash

In order for Trump ( or any candidate ) to win, they must get the delegates.

People think Perot swayed the election ? what a joke ! he may have swayed the popular vote count but not the election. The elections are decided in a struggle between the two parties who are swayed by their constituents who are the lobyests (not the citizens)

Another Perot comparison? That was a different era. The landscape is very different today. Many Americans in what's left of middle America are not too happy. With anything. The mood soured. It's no a secret.

It's how we got to where we are. This guy pressed all the buttons and resonated with a whole lot of people. Good timing.

I'd pay to watch these folks attempt to bar, censor and use their machine to stop him from being a player at this point. Remove the guy everyone wants see and hear? What a hoot!

And leave them with 12 career bureaucrats standing on the stage.

That should go over really well.
