Hillary lost. Get over it.

Hillary's latest pathetic display is more verification why she had no business being on the ballot in the first place. I can only imagine what a debilitating emotional trigger this thread is for you.

Bitching about the electoral college is the same as losing to the Warriors because of the 3 point line.

everything above is true. However, the Electoral College is an 18th century abomination and needs to go.

Hillary is pathetic. But this is a money grab and at that, she's winning. Yes there are people stupid enough to pay to listen to her shit.

Why did you suddenly turn on her?

Electoral college prevents California and New York from deciding every election.

A good thing it does too. Look how happy that @CirrhosisDawg is now that Trump won despite Cali voting against him

You don't read well. I've never supported Hillary.

Why lie about it? Makes no sense.

I'm sure you didn't do it on purpose - but those people who live in 'the country' don't much like city folks telling them how to manage their lands from behind desks.

True, but if it had gone the other way Trump would have blamed the refs as well - i.e., voter fraud. Oh wait, he did that too when he won.

We should abolish Hillary Clinton.

The acerage vote has too many checks right now over the urban areas. 2 senators per state should be enough and the EC is archaic. I like the idea of something more along the French model- i.e., if no candidate gets more than 50% of the popular vote, you go to a 2nd round run off between the final 2.
