    Hell, plenty don’t even need a popular vote!

    LMAO You’re the type of person that states that Trump shouldn’t have won 2016 because they didn’t win the popular vote… Then someone compare that to this… forgetting that he was ~1% less “popular” than Clinton. Someone who can get over 60 million votes is pretty “popular”.

        No shit Sherlock? Hamas got 44% of the popular vote. That’s not “unpopular”. No matter what definition you’re using. Popular != majority.

      This is absolutely hilarious. I get to see someone truly warp their mind to justify winning with fewer votes than your opponent. And the best part is you’re not even talking about the electoral college, just simply “yes it’s less votes but he’s still popular!”
