4.3 Million People Want To Disenfranchise Trump Voters

The rationale, of course, is that the horrible awful no good very bad Electoral College gave Donald Trump the win even though Hillary Clinton won the popular vote.

If it weren’t so infuriating, it would be hilarious that the very people—progressive intellectual elites—who fueled Donald Trump’s success are now reinforcing it with more intellectual elitism. Everyday Americans are tired of being told they’re too stupid to know what’s good for them. Trump is the president-elect in no small part because he respected those Americans to determine their own best interests.

 

So what does the self-anointed intellectual cream of the crop do? Swoop in to “save” the country from the know-nothing deplorables who thought Trump was a better pick than Hillary Clinton. Charge in with no constitutional basis to wrest the presidency from the constitutionally valid winner because, egads, the troglodytes managed to put him in office. We can’t have that.

 

Let me get this straight. Forty-eight states have winner-take-all systems where all the electoral votes go to whichever candidate wins the popular vote in that state. Or, put more simply, 96 percent of Americans voted in an election where their vote counted directly.
