Framing the popular vote result

[YoungDemCA]

First, it is good to be back!

I was just thinking that it might because more effective, pragmatically speaking, for us to say "Trump lost the popular vote" rather than "Clinton win the popular vote." That way, we can say in no uncertain terms that Trump is not a legitimate President, and that he doesn't speak for the vast majority of people in this country.

Furthermore, since Hillary Clinton is unfortunately toxic to a lot of people - for so many horrible reasons that all too many people believe - I think that on a subconscious level, more people would be inclined to agree with us that Trump is not a legitimate POTUS.

That's just my two cents though, YMMV.

1. Certainly saying that Trump lost anything is the best way to proceed.

I'm sure he hates that idea.

Not the least of which reasons is because 'winning' the Presidency seems to be a poison pill for him. Surrounding himself with smart people would have been a good first move. But surrounding himself with smart evil people bodes ill for us all...

2. trump did lose the popular vote and it's driving him nuts.. he

sure as hell does not have a mandate.

And. the Dems better act like they are in the majority if not in the damn house and senate.

Thank you, YDCA
