Bruwin,
You people keep coming up with this "popular vote number" angle.
Like I said before, every time I see Brumar's posts, I notice that he is becoming more and more liberal.

If people really want to bitch about the electoral college not being representative of the people, they should also bitch about the whole concept of the Senate, where every state gets two senators regardless of population.

Brumar won't, of course, because his hatred of Trump has eliminated any logical consistency in his arguments.

I know its not how the system works but its nonetheless relevant because it shows Trump isn't some wildly popular winner. An electoral winner who wins despite a big popular vote loss is a fluke. You might as well recognize that sooner rather than later.
