Actually, about 3 million more American citizens voted for a different person to be president.
AnotherBadArtist
Did both.

Voter suppression and a system that values some voters more than others will give that impression...
Kilahti
Yeah, if only Trump hadn't won the popular vote. ...No, wait.
jeejeejerrycotton
Quick reminder: More people turned up on election day to vote against Trump than for him.
Not in states like Florida where more people duped themselves into voting Johnson instead than the number that separated Clinton and Trump.
Madhouse5213
it was the electoral collage that is fucked up
PoopFrosting
ah yes, the usual "i know exactly who did and didn't vote"
Fair point, but the number of Johnson voters is definitely larger than gap between Clinton & Trump in many states. Could've voted smarter.
Budborne
Yeah vote against the candidate you dislike most, not the one you want to win
StarvingGarbage
You're the reason democracy is broken.
Artethis
No he just understands strategic voting in US elections. Third party voting directly undermines your interests through the spoiler effect.
Voting for a candidate you don't support is failing as a citizen.
