Am I wrong??

I think if Hillary were a male who won the popular vote by 3 million more people would be talking about how she is the rightful president.

You hardly hear anyone mention it. Like it never happened.

1. Maybe when the campaign firm the FBI raided says

"Yes, we did hack several voting machines" this will become a talking point?

[democratisphere]

2. Since when do 3 million additional popular votes matter in the big picture?

Only in America where our rigged electoral college trumps everything.

3. Certainly lots of people felt Gore's 500k vote lead was meaningful.

5. But it was almost entirely out of the press six months later.

Plus Gore had a stronger argument that he actually won the electoral college.

6. Not "only in America"

There are plenty of democracies where an even smaller proportion of the electorate can win the chief executive spot

8. Like where? No snark, I really would like to know.

[FBaggins]

10. The U.K.

Pretty much any parliamentary democracy.

In fact, there are hardly any democracies with a direct vote for chief executive won by a simple majority.

4. Yes... You're wrong

The same thing happened to Gore.

[lunamagica]

7. I don't think you are wrong. 3 million more votes is a huge difference.

Hillary's campaign really opened my eyes to see how misogynistic and retrograde this country still is.

[tinrobot]

9. Al Gore would disagree with that statement.

11. I don't think its because she's a woman but,

more and more I am suspecting that many who voted Trump did not vote For him but, against Hillary.
And the right and Trumpiacs are still like a dog with a bone on the issue of Hillary. They cannot let it go or let her move on.
They are still chewing on Hillary this or that. Its kind of an obsession on the right.
