33. This is just his ego speaking.....

It still bothers him that he lost the popular vote. He makes that better in his mind by pretending that if only he had been allowed to campaign in all 50 states he would have swung the popular vote his way.

He'd have turned those blue states red and never lost a vote in the swing states that elected him in the process of reallocating his time and money.

Because.....his ego needs that.

Nothing to see here. Same old shit.
