THE quintessential dwarf
BBut he didn't win that many states.
The reality is he LOST the popular vote. This alone disqualifies your premise.
Also winners in a referendum aren't protested in over half a dozen states after the election.
Christ RJ. I'm comparing the ratio of Dems vs Republicans in 2012 vs 2016. In 2016 the Republicans did better something like 45-47 states. You can say he lost the popular vote all you want, I agree with you. I'm simply providing you another way to look at things. There was a Trump movement in most every state but 3. That's a remarkable shift. Use whatever adjective to describe that as you want, a mandate, a referendum, an amazing feat.
