So are you saying, in America no one is equal.

Cheers
Not exactly.
Quick lesson
The Electoral College consist of 538 members who vote for the President and Vice President
The 538 members are determined as follows:
1 member per Senator. Each State has 2 Senators thus 100
1 member per Representative in the House Of Representatives. Currently there are 435 Representatives. Number of Representatives is determined by the Census
This gives a total of 535 and the District of Columbia gets 3 for a grand total of:
538
It takes 270 Electoral Votes to "win" the election.
If you want an in-depth explanation go to:
U. S. Electoral College, Official - What is the Electoral College?

Ah, but I need examples. Just saying it doesn't count. Mostly because you could be relying on Facebook for information and that is a no-no.

What kind of lies were spread about Trump?
If you think Hillary lies more than Trump, not sure what I can tell you.
Yea, I don't care to go into all this too seriously, who am I and who are you to know what is really happening, but that is my opinion for now, things could change, but we just have to wait and see, lets at least give the man a go, that is what you would expect if Hillary dillary won ?.

The Electoral College voted today, and after Texas just voted, Trump went over the 270 vote mark needed to make it official. He is expected to win a total of 306 electoral votes. Congratulations to the 45th President of the United States of America!
Amazing how quiet the media was.

Yet another deflection. This is your thread about Trump.
And now you don't want to talk about him. I am not surprised. Trump supporters generally want to talk about Clinton or anything besides Trump's doings and history.

Let's talk about Trump! He's going to make America great again!

Thanks for trying to clarify things, but from over here in Oz it still looks like the worlds biggest political Gerrymander, instead of a democracy.

Democrats usually win the popular vote. This years was a record. America is unfortunately becoming more ignorant and less fact minded. I feel your pain..and I live here.

I assume you mean all the Hillary voters when you are addressing ignorant voters.

Democratic voters typically don't believe panic mongering propaganda and conspiracy theories. We don't have media doing that. It's purely RW and these are grifters who have found they can make a pretty penny taking advantage of 'heartland' conservatives. They're so obvious about it, they even label the things they sell as "Patriot food" or "Freedom Buckets."
Some people will buy things based on wording. This isn't something democrats buy, this is purely 'constitutional conservatives' fearing the government. I think it's safe to say that RW media has brainwashed people to think democrats hate the constitution and America. I think there's more conservatives that hate the American government than democrats. Dangerous people.

What's done is done. Now it's time to live with the choice. We're already seeing many problems that were there before the election. Trump has done a 180 on everything he has promised. We knew before the election he was lying about things.

So far, he's succeeded at this.

Of course they're not the same, they're friends. I'm just surprised people think he's a conservative, when he's clearly not.

Hillary is/was the responsible choice. Times are very uncertain now. The russian connections doesn't help anything.

Who thinks he's a conservative?
Anyway, I prefer a Russian connection to Russian animosity.

Don't worry, Trump has assured us he knows more about everything in the world than the experts. We should be safe with his decision making.
