Yeah but I'm mainly criticizing the reason why people voted for Trump. This isn't about donald or hillarys tactics it's about the people. The internet just ruins things
The Internet is a toxic force

More important than why people voted for trump is why they protesting now... the decision cant be reversed... unless he reaches with some untimely accident which I doubt would happen. :Sparks:
Also Meek Mill is shit for a rapper

Sarcasm bruh :| if you are going to present ppl with a decision then you need to inform them of their options. Hillary Clinton really is that crappy, and she would have still done better if instead of pushing how not PC Trump is she stuck to pointing out the flaws of his policies and why a future with him would be bad
You can't really blame ppl for voting memes when both candidates are horrible, a lot of ppl just don't care either way and would rather have a laugh

Or ya know we could use logic and realize that under our system what matters is winning states and certain states are worth more votes than others. The amount of ppl really doesn't mean much.
You ppl are still with that whole establishment theory thing huh :|
What is the Electoral College?
The Electoral College is a group of people that elects the president and the vice president of the United States. (The word “college” in this case simply refers to an organized body of people engaged in a common task.)
As voters head to the polls on Tuesday, they will not vote for the presidential candidates directly, in a popular vote. Instead, they will vote to elect specific people, known as “electors” to the college. Each state gets a certain number of electoral votes based on its population.
The electors are appointed by the political parties in each state, so if you vote for Donald J. Trump on Tuesday, and Mr. Trump ends up winning the popular vote in your state, then electors that the Republican Party has chosen will cast votes for him in their state capitals in December.
The electors are asked to cast their votes on the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December. This year, that’s Dec. 19.
But most people don’t pay attention to that because, technically, it’s the election of the electors that matters. And on Election Day, we’re electing the electors who elect the president. Got it?
So unless you believe that your state that was voted majority democrat or republican didn't properly represent your State's vote then I don't really think there is any other argument

Like I said more ppl here or there doesn't mean that candidate wins. It's done by State and each State has a cap on how many votes. This is done to balance powers between lower and higher population states
You do realize that goes for both sides right :| you are only whining because you didn't get what you wanted. Unless u have proof that they didn't then you are just making baseless accusations, especially seeing the lengths the Democratic Party went through to get Hillary elected.
Do yourself a favor and move on. The sun will rise again tomorrow

At this part I'm really not complaining about the candidate I have really no choice but to live with that. I'm more so complaining about how corrupt the overall system is. So your okay that trump won in not a straight up manner and if you think he did win in a straight up manner then maybe there's something I'm misunderstanding so please explain it to me.
No I am just not complaining because I have actual proof that the system was stacked against him. The democrats cheated, applied dirty tactics, and 5 top players in the Democratic party and one from CNN lost their jobs trying cheat for Hillary, and she still lost. :| in what world can any complaint be warranted after all that?
I mean she had sooooooo much more money than anyone else, and even the president campaigned for her

It's not about getting what a select few want, it's about getting what the majority want, and the system makes it nearly impossible for voters to get the leader they really want. It is this broken system that got us a poisonous dose of filthy Bush. A democracy is all about the majority and the Electoral College negates that when a nominee with the popular vote loses to someone who was picked by those already in power. That is definitely not a democracy, especially when electors can vote for whomever they want.
Trump won and there's nothing we can do about it, but the system is corrupt and we have the right to voice our disgust against it.
The world will always have cheaters, but it doesn't change the fact that many things (such as the election system) in the U.S. are broken.
So in other words you want the places with more ppl to have unfair swing in the election because you don't believe certain ppl will just prioritize bigger populated states while the smaller ones get put on the back burner. >_>
Like I said you guys are just mad things didn't fall the way you wanted, and you have no proof of corruption, but you are willing to hold onto any idea that someone may have wronged you.
Also since you hate Bush so much I should inform you that the one who put this country through all its economic troubles wasn't bush, it was Clinton.
During Clinton's reign they put forward a law that forced the banks to approve nonsense laws to minorities and when interest rates rose ppl weren't able to pay the loans and the housing market crashed.
Uh huh :| so you just don't care that they cheated though you are pushing this whole corruption angle
Well this is getting tedious so I am just gonna bail. :gn:

You seem rather slow on the uptake so I'll spell it out for you.
Nominee A - Republican
Nominee B - Democrat
Everybody in the U.S. will be voting for either A (Republican) or B (Democrat) and each vote is as influential and worth as much as the rest, no matter what state you live in. When all the votes from the states are counted and divided for the respective parties, the person who received the most votes from the total wins the presidency (i.e., A's 10,000,000 > B's 9,000,000 so A wins). Tada! How unfair is that except to the eyes of morons who believe votes would be neglected from states with low populations.

they didnt vote for trump because of the internet. They voted for him cuz he projects himself as anti establishment. While hillary is establishment status quo.

It neglects the low population because it would be pointless to go for them. If youre going based off of populus alone then getting california, ny,texas etc on your side becomes much more important than places like rhode island. Get it?-_-
