Clinton was the choice of the people Paul she got 3,000,000 more votes than Trump. So clearly she was a great candidate that the majority of voters chose as president.

Trump was annointed by 270 people voting for him in the Electoral College. Trump was right, the Electoral College is corrupt.
If people rely on social media to lead their opinions, they deserve to get it wrong.

Trump won according to the rules of the election. Face it Clinton was a shit candidate foisted on America. Trump was a ray of hope for many, even if he is shit.
