I think people miss the entire point of the electoral college, which in its current embodiment, serves the purpose of preventing large cities from controlling the entire country. @Adramelek is correct in his assessment.
People are just butt-hurt that Trump won. The EC has served plenty of Democrats very well in the past, probably more than Republicans actually. I have pretty liberal views, and don't particularly care for Frump, but give me a break.
Hail my friend! I have a strong sense that it may very well be more than 24 years that another democrat will ever be elected president of the United States. They can thank their own failed policies both foreign and domestic, and the past 8 years of the disaster that is the Obama administration.
