At least the Oscars respect the popular vote. Even when they screw up, they rectify it right away. 🙂

Trump won the Presidency on a perfectly allowable procedural technicality. However Hillary, who won 3 million more votes than Trump, clearly won the mandate.

The fight you are witnessing is not over the Presidency. Everyone acknowledges Trump won the Presidency. He got to pick those Oval Office drapes.

The fight is over the mandate.

It is not possible to win a mandate without winning over the majority of voters. Trump didn’t even come close.

So accept that.

I’ve accepted Moonlight beat La La Land.
