This is a very simple concept.
You confuse people saying he lost the popular vote and has no madate , with losing the election. They are not the same.

And you're not reading what I wrote, which is people saying "how hillary actually 'won'"
I have zero problem with people saying he lost the popular vote, because he did. I realise you don't come into the category of who I'm talking about, as you openly stated you were trolling, but people actually sticking to their belief that hillary 'won' in terms of who won the election... just wtf. Denial is obviously one of the stages of grief, but damn.
