The Majority Report

A facebook troll annoyed the Divine Mrs. M the other day.  Commenting on the distress of democrats during the period leading up to the inauguration of Cheeto Jesus, he basically said "The election is over, Trump won, get over it".   As my better half did also, I beg to differ with said troll.  Trump won after a relentlessly ugly negative campaign of insults and lies regarding his opponent.  He won due in part to Russian hacking of Democratic National Committee e-mails which were leaked by wikileaks in a steady stream to maximum effect.  He won because the FBI director issued a highly partisan letter insinuating there was a continuing investigation of Hillary Clinton's e-mails.  He won because less than 80,000 voters in three swing states chose to vote against their own best interests.  He won despite losing the popular vote by nearly 3 million votes.  I could go on, but you get the general idea.  A significant percentage of the American public will never acknowledge the presidency of the Tangering Nightmare, so Mr. Troll, enjoy the fruits of your vote in solitude.  It's not going to be a fun 4 years.
