It will make for a great trivia question in 20 years, but sadly the point is moot.

Trump won the US elections by getting only a slightly larger percentage of votes than Dukakis got losing in 1988.

Let THAT sink in for a minute.

Trump won by -2.10% of the vote. The third largest popular loss yet electoral win in the history of the US.

But still 3.1 percentage points more than Clinton in '92.

Clinton's percentage win over GWB was 5.56%. That's what "won by" means; the difference between the two.

Trump's Tweet:
I would have done even better in the election, if that is possible, if the winner was based on popular vote - but would campaign differently

Hi Paul,

Clinton's percentage win over GWB was 5.56%.

In 1992, Clinton beat his father, GHWB.

If you remove CA and NY Trump won by 3 million votes.

Do you know what that MEANS?!?!?

Nothing really. It means absolutely jack shit and is the argument of an imbecile and by that I don't mean you, but Trump himself.

Go ahead, ignore California and New York with regard to the US. Good luck with that. Good luck paying for things.

And if you remove the 50 least educated counties in the US - Clinton would have won the White House.

I was addressing your second sentence Trump's 46.1% vs Clinton's 43% WIN in '92 vs GHWB.

If you remove CA and NY Trump won by 3 million votes.

Why would you remove CA and NY?

Why not remove TX and LA?

Or TN and SC?

Or OH and OK?

Hell, remove any other 2 states you want and in every situation Clinton wins the popular vote in the rest of the country. But why would you? The citizens of every state are all equally American.

Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Well, except some Americans are more equal than others. A Wyoming resident is much more equal than a New Yorker.

I find it amusing that those who rail against the tyranny of the majority are perfectly happy to have a tyranny of the minority.
