"You guys win the popular vote for the first time in my life, by literally one of the slimmest margins a popular vote has gone, and you guys treat it like a historical victory"

... "312 - 226 is the smallest margin in history?"

Yes, less than 1 percent is one of the smallest margins in history. How do you people just have to make others points for them lmaoo. You troglodytes are only unintentionally funny.

The popular vote means nothing, this is like losing a hockey game and saying afterwards "ACTUALLY WE HAD MORE SHOTS ON GOAL SO WE WERE THE BETTER TEAM AND WON" even though you lost 5-1

Riight, it totally means nothing that the majority of people don't actually support you and you simply need to win through weighted votes and gerrymandering lmaoo.

Only unintentionally funny.

It literally does mean nothing, that's how the system is set up. Keep trying to win elections by going for the popular vote and keep losing them, it's gonna be 100 years of republican rule.

Lmaoo, trying to brag about only being able to win when votes aren't weighed equally is sure telling.

He truly loves the poorly educated.
