… the Republicans, US Media, and foreign (Putin) influence... yes, even the progressive media rolled over. Still, I hear the media say Trump was overwhelmingly elected by the American people - and there were two equally unpopular candidates. Trump won the Electoral College; Hillary Clinton won the vote, overwhelmingly; unlike Bush v Gore, it was not even close. Voters decided she was the most popular politician in the country (second to Obama). The Deplorables are Trump supporters and they should be called out, again and again... I used to think their numbers have gone down, due to bigots just dying off... but those faces carrying KKK torches and chanting "Jews will not replace us!" were young faces.
