A wrestler understands the Electoral College better than Hillary fans

"Saying you have the popular vote is like getting your ass kicked but you got more yards. It doesn't count."

American Politics, News | Comments | December 9, 2016

The fact that Hillary Clinton (D) is leading the popular vote by more than 2 million right now is interesting but irrelevant in our system of government. Donald Trump (R) got more votes in the Electoral College and when the electors meet in their home states (and D.C.) on December 19 to cast their votes he will officially be selected as the next president of the United States.

Yet Clinton supporters and the mainstream media (I repeat myself) keep bringing up this trivial metric as if it's supposed to mean something. They're trying to convince us that really Clinton won. It's nonsense. Professional wrestler Tyrus explained it best a few days ago with a football analogy. "Saying you have the popular vote is like getting your ass kicked but you got more yards. It doesn't count." But left-wingers only care about power so they're happy to try to change the rules after the fact.
