7. Why can't/won't he just let this go?

He won the EV and he's sitting in the WH, not Hillary (to our country's everlasting shame). It shouldn't matter whether or not he won the PV and if he's that concerned that he's not popular or well-liked, now's the time for him to sit down and do some self-assessment (which we know he won't do but anyway) and figure out how to not come off as some thin-skinned ignorant jerk. George W. Bush, who won by an even slimmer EV margin and only took office because SCOTUS stopped the recount, never sat around following the election and fretted or raged about the fact that Al Gore won the PV. This is insane. If he has proof of massive voting fraud, he needs to show us the proof or just shut up about it IMHO. He's the sorest loser I think that I've ever seen. If I managed- after doing everything he did in order to be elected- to be able to plant my butt in the Oval Office, I would be thanking a higher power that I won and go on with being President.
