Before one of you write that Donald John Trump won the Electoral College and that is the only vote that matters, well no shit Sherlock tell me something I did not know!
Also before any of you claim that Clinton did not win the National Popular vote because illegals voted for her or voter fraud happen, well the actual evidence and not just speculations or opinions does not support that either and she won the Popular vote because of her landslide victory in California.
Now what is this really about?
Well the reality that Trump failed to win the hearts of most voters. The reality that when you combine the Third Party vote with Clinton vote it clearly shows many Americans were against Trump and let be factual they were also against Clinton too.
Also let be factual and admit in swing states that Clinton should have won the Green vote killed her there. Stein pulled off a Nader on Clinton in close states like Michigan where Stein garner 51k votes and had they went to Clinton she would have won that state or in Wisconsin where Stein garner 31k of the vote and had they went to Clinton she would have won the State or Pennsylvania where Stein garner 49k of the vote and if Clinton had gained those vote Clinton would have won that State.
So again what is my point?
Simple, the reality is 7.8 Million third party voters voted against the Two Major Parties candidates and with that in close contested states like Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin it cost the Democratic Nominee the Electoral Votes to win the National Election.
Now I am going to assume many of Trump voters will claim all that I have written is a lie and I am being butt-hurt over Clinton loss but being a Johnson voter in the State of Texas mean that Clinton was someone I never wanted.
Also for the Clinton voter you should reflect on the reason why your candidate lost the National Election and not blame Russia or Third Party voters for her failure. You should ask yourself where was the failure to garner the Green Voter and how many of them were Sanders Voters that either stayed home or voted for Stein instead of your candidate.
Now I know this was not written in the Rubber Room and rules do apply but make your argument against what I wrote funny and amusing and not the typical partisan nonsense like I am a Nazi, Third Party voters hate America, or that I am butt-hurt because as you can see I am not a Nazi ( well only with some ) and Clinton would have been as bad as Trump to me or maybe even worse seeing she would have been investigated daily about if she had a penis or if she really gave birth to Chelsea Clinton and I love America what a Country!?!

So with that here is a link to the vote totals and learn that if the Democrats want to win they will need the Green voter in 2018 and on and if you think their votes does not matter then you have not learn what it will cost you when you toss them to the side for a corporate candidate instead...
United States presidential election, 2016 - Wikipedia
With only 55% of Americans voting in 2016 a candidate would have to get 91% of the votes cast to receive a majority of Americans.
Well then I am correct seeing 45% of America did not vote and mean they did not like either candidate to care enough to vote.
