I swear you people are so owned!
Trump is just a rich b grade reality actor, who's sole desire is to have his own ego stroked by the minnion masses.
He doesn't stand for anything, he doesn't have some kind of higher moral code.... How stupid and ignorant would a person need to be, to claim any different?
All he ever does is constantly repeat stereotypical right wing catchphrases, to appeal to his core base.
His done nothing but further divide the American people... And he doesn't deliberately create all this political hostility among the American people, for some greater good... He does it purely to gratify his own narcissistic ego.
Seriously, some of you Trump supporters need to get a grip... Your little Trump fetish is starting to cause you to lose touch with reality.

That's one way of looking at it. Another way would be that the EC gives rural voters disproportionate sway, rigging the system in favor of the candidate who panders hardest to the minority living in the most sparsely populated areas.
...as opposed to the system the left wants which grants sway to the candidate who panders most to the minorities living in the most densely populated areas, I presume?

If you take California out of the popular vote equation, then Trump wins the rest of the country by 1.4 million votes. And if California voted like every other Democratic state — where Clinton averaged 53.5% wins — Clinton and Trump end up in a virtual popular vote tie.
I certainly don't want California deciding the fate of my country.

Says someone who doesn't live in the US nor has reaped any benefits that Trump has rewarded nor suffered in the crap that has come out of the previous dicta... *cough* commun... *cough* administrations.

Especially when I see what they're doing to Texas.
Texas... You whore! How could you! Hipsters? Really?

Those rural voters in 11 states still wouldn't be enough to equal the 55 EC votes she got in one state. How does that disproportionately sway anything?

I care. I don't think he represents our country well.

They would be happy until the first time "their" candidate lost a popular vote, then I guarantee they would want to change the rules again to make it more "fair".

OK, so lets pretend I did live in the US and was just some average factory worker, earning say 50k a year.
Forget the rhetoric for a second... cause talk is cheap.
What's Donald actually physically done, which would theoretically allow me to 'reap the benefits' of?

But still, 20 extra measly dollars a week in my pay
According to a new report from The Center for American Progress, the cost of birth control is prohibitive or hardship-inducing for a number of women that would likely cause Rick Santorum's sweatervest to burst into flames. Three fourths of women of reproductive age have private insurance, but even with private insurance, women often have to shoulder more of the cost of birth control than do plan participants with other prescriptions, which can run upwards of $50 per month, depending on the method.
