These sore losers keep going back to – “but, Hillary won the popular vote?” Popular – where in New York?
Well, it is like in horse shoes – close doesn’t count.
They cheated and still lost – that’s what keeps rattling in their brains. The question from the Clinton aide should have been – what did you do to cheat and why didn’t it work?
************************
The Election by County
There are 3,141 counties in the United States.
Trump won 3,084 of them.
Clinton won 57.
There are 62 counties in New York State.
Trump won 46 of them.
Clinton won 16.
Clinton won the popular vote by approx. 1.5 million votes.
In the 5 counties that encompass NYC, (Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Richmond & Queens) Clinton received well over 2 million more votes than Trump. (Clinton only won 4 of these counties; Trump won Richmond)
Therefore these 5 counties alone, more than accounted for Clinton winning the popular vote of the entire country.
These 5 counties comprise 319 square miles.
The United States is comprised of 3, 797,000 square miles.
When you have a country that encompasses almost 4 million square miles of territory, it would be ludicrous to even suggest that the vote of those who inhabit a mere 319 square miles should dictate the outcome of a national election.
Large, densely populated Democrat cities (NYC, Chicago, LA, etc.) don’t and shouldn’t speak for the rest of our country.
*****************
So the moral to the story is – if she didn’t have the five counties that encompasses NYC where she received well over 2 million votes – she would have been in the basement for sure.

Top Trump and Clinton aides feud at Harvard forum
A forum with the top campaign officials from the presidential campaigns of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton erupted into a bitter clash at one of the nation’s most prestigious universities Thursday night.

CBS News correspondent Nancy Cordes, who attended the forum, says downcast Clinton operatives were subdued through the first half of the three-hour conversation while Trump officials Kellyanne Conway, Corey Lewandowski, and David Bossie touted their winning strategy.
The breaking point for Clinton campaign communications director Jennifer Palmieri appeared to come as Bossie, who was Mr. Trump’s deputy campaign manager, praised the Republican president-elect’s controversial campaign chairman, Steve Bannon.
“The guy is an unbelievably brilliant strategist who is brilliant, a terrific guy who… has a Harvard pedigree and is getting attacked by people who have no idea who he is,” Bossie enthused.

“If providing a platform for white supremacists makes me a brilliant strategist, a brilliant tactician, I am glad to have lost,” Palmieri burst out, adding that she “would rather lose than win the way you guys did.”
“No, you wouldn’t, that’s very clear today,” Conway retorted. “No you wouldn’t, respectfully.”
But Conway was just getting started.
“How exactly did [Mr. Trump] win? No, go for it, Jen — how exactly did we win? I’d like to know, because I sacrificed the last four months of my life to do it,” she said, arguing they had achieved victory “by looking at the schedule and looking at, yes, the electoral map of 270 because that’s how you win the presidency. And we went places, and we were either ignored or mocked — roundly by most of the people in this room — but I have a smile on my face at all times — and we did it by focusing with Steve Bannon and Dave Bossie and everybody you see here.”
“We connected with voters,” Conway told Palmieri. “We connected with voters.”
Since 1972, The Kennedy School at Harvard University’s Institute of Politics has held a quadrennial conference on the presidential campaign, which it likes to call a “first draft of history” of the presidential campaign that has just taken place. It includes campaign officials, as well as journalists and political observers, and they talk about key decisions and pivotal moments in the campaign.
One of those moments was the hiring of Bannon, the publisher of Breitbart, and an ardent Trump supporter even before he was hired by Mr. Trump to chair his campaign. He was supposed to attend the forum, but skipped it.
Palmieri attacked Bannon for having said that he’d give a platform to white rights activists who refer to themselves as the “alt-right,” and she defended Clinton for having delivered a speech accusing Mr. Trump of bringing white nationalists into the mainstream.
“One of my proudest moments of [Clinton] is her standing up and her saying with courage and clarity in Steve Bannon’s own words, in Donald Trump’s own words, the platform that they gave to white supremacists, white nationalists… it is a very, very important moment in our history as a country, and I think as his presidency moves forward I am going to be very proud to have been part of the campaign that tried to stop it,” Palmieri said.
“Do you think I ran a campaign where white supremacists had a platform?” Conway asked. “Are you going to look me in the face and tell me that?”
“You did, Kellyanne,” said Palmieri. “You did!”
A protester holds a sign outside Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government, Nov. 30, 2016, in Cambridge, Mass. where the Institute of Politics was to host a forum featuring political strategists from the 2016 presidential election campaigns.
Conway responded, “Do you think you could have just had a decent message for white, working-class voters? You think this woman who has nothing in common with anybody?” Hillary Clinton, Conway said, “doesn’t connect with people,” and she added, “you had no economic message.”
There were early signs that the conference was not going to proceed as it had in years past, even outside the building, as hundreds of students protested, specifically against Steve Bannon.
The part that really ate my lunch was Hillary Clinton in her defeat did not come to the hotel and stand with her losers and thank them for a job well done. She sent Podesta to tell them to go home and come back in the morning. The nerve! Now that is what I call “sorry trash” to not respect people who beat their gums all of those months and show such disrespect.
As I have said time and time again – these Dem’s even eat their own!
I stayed up until Trump’s victory was declared. Trump’s group has to be commended for a “job well done” in spite of the main street media, the Dem’s, Elite Repub’s, and all of the road blocks put in place by these people.
It looks like these Dem’s will never get over this election.
