We won the popular vote posters-- did you not learn anything from 2000?

I see many posts on here saying we did good because we won the popular vote. Do you not realize that this does not get us anything!? NY and CA do not elect a President by themselves, we need to appeal to the flyover states as well to win. Like it or not the electoral college is how we elect Presidents and it is not going anywhere. Also, winning the popular vote in the Presidential race did little for us in congress. So, please please open your eyes and try not to hang your hat on a popular vote victory that is ultimately meaningless.

by the folks who rigged the vote.

Now we look like poor losers and therefore the popular vote is meaningless. We did not fully use the system in our defense because the Nazis I mean the Republicans bullied us into submission. As usual.
