Trump and the GOP in general has much more of a stranglehold on american politics that you guys appear to know or at least acknowledge. please pay special attention the bolded below.1: There are 3,141 counties in the United States. Trump won 3,084 of them. Clinton won 57.
2: There are 62 counties in New York State. Trump won 46 of them. Clinton won 16.
3: Clinton won the popular vote by approx. 1.5 million votes.
4: In the 5 counties that encompass NYC, (Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Richmond & Queens) Clinton received well over 2 million more votes than Trump. (Clinton only won 4 of these counties; Trump won Richmond) Therefore these 5 counties alone, more than accounted for Clinton winning the popular vote of the entire country.
5: These 5 counties comprise 319 square miles. The United States is comprised of 3,797,000 square miles.
6: When you have a country that encompasses almost 4 million square miles of territory, it would be ludicrous to even suggest that the vote of those who inhabit a mere 319 square miles should dictate the outcome of a national election.
Large, densely populated Democrat cities (NYC, Chicago, LA, etc) don’t & shouldn’t speak for the rest of the country.
And this children is WHY you have an Electoral College. It's a safety net so that EVERYONE's vote counts.
i'm sorry guys...these are the voting facts. 4 counties in NYC do not and SHOULD NOT determine our national politics. Especially when these people essentially live on top of each other and comprise 40% first and barely 2nd generation generation immigrants!! Newly arrived Immigrants do NOT and should NOT run this damn
STD, you gotta stop pulling your facts from FaceBook pages and no name tweets. We talked about this. Most here know they are FAKE NEWS, but if you keep repeating lies over and over, eventually some brainless, impressionable, ideologically biased neo-acolyte might just believe some of this FAKE NEWS (as 40% Trump support bears out), so it is worth noting, your "facts" are not even "alternate facts" but agenda-driven fictions.
I do, nonetheless, appreciate your attempts at a new, toned-down, reasonable and kid friendly STD. Keep it up, because I expect that we will witness a gradual but ultimately audacious chrysalis. I know you will miss your Frank Gorshin-Riddler/Cesar Romero-Joker persona, but parents, teachers, ministers, and others of the aghast set will thank you.
