Irrespective of the strategy, irrespective of the election .. the winner still has to govern. In a climate such as this, winning the election was the easy part.

he will rule against the consent of the governed



he will be the most hated president in history
 
If you want it to be different you should win more than 20 of the 31 elections... What was it Obama said, "Win some elections"... I think that was it.

The strategy of a U.S. Presidential race is to win the electoral college, not the popular vote. If candidates were trying to win the popular vote they would imply a different strategy.

Right. They strive to have more people in favor of the other candidate.

right about now the Trumpkins and Repubs don't need the Dems - not because of a mandate,
but because the Dem's have been unable to hold even statehouses. I don't know how they "fix it".
First they gotta figure out where they want the party to go They can fillibuster but that's about it for the next 2 years.

Long Run either Trump has some success -or fails. and the midterms cement Repub gains,
or the American people throw out the Republican bums. By having POTUS and Congress the entire outcomes rests on the Repubs shoulders.

Hopefully, they paid attention to the Republican abuse of the filibuster.

No, they aspire to have more electoral voters. Winning California by 100 or one million votes changes nothing.

I repeat, winning the election is not the end of the story.

The winner must still govern .. and that's where winning millions more votes matters .. and if you don't recognize that now .. you will.

Hillary Clinton 'set to win 2.5m more votes than Donald Trump'
Her predicted result, of more than 65m votes, smashes George W. Bush's 2004 total and is similar to amount collected by Barack Obama in 2012

What does it mean?

It means Trump has no mandate.

It means that while Trump overperformed, Clinton underperformed and still beats Trump by millions of votes.

It means there are more anti-Trump Americans than pro-Trump Americans.

It means the next 4 years will likely be the most contentious and challenged in American political history.

Yes, Trump and republicans hold the White House and Congress .. but now comes the hard part .. governing in a climate where most Americans pray for your failure .. with rookies at the helm. :0)

NO-NO-NO.

What it truly means; is that you, liberals, and Hillary voters are just a collection of whiny little children, who are upset over not getting their way. :lol:
