We’re told to accept the results of an election in which 7 million more people voted against Trump than for him. We’re told to sit down by people who were prepared to take to the street with guns if their man didn’t win. Trump said in 2012 that the Electoral College is ridiculous and should not install the guy with fewer votes. This year, he said the election was rigged. Maybe he was right. How does a guy hated by numerous Republicans, including the entire state of Utah, get more votes than Romney or DUHbya. How? Setting aside the chance the vote was diddled (notice how he played everyone into insisting that wasn’t possible), he lost the popular vote. I’ll graciously accept him when the radical wrong \/ alt-smart kisses Obama’s ass. They are a dwindling minority that should not impose on us an incompetent narcissist for president at this crucial moment. <\/p>\n

Don\u2019t *save* your energy \u2013 spend it putting pressure on the Electoral College and your state legislature.<\/p>\n

The following is from an unidentified writer. I dispute \u201cthe people who won\u201d \u2013 their candidate got fewer votes. <\/p>\n
