    The popular vote went to Donald Trump, so the majority absolutely decided this US Election. The DNC selects its candidates via primary election, of which candidates like Bernie Sanders consistently lost.

      Who won the popular vote in 2016?

      I’d discuss the primaries of the past handful of elections with you if you were arguing in good faith, but you are not.

        The popular vote was won by Hillary Clinton in 2016, and a partisan stance exists for removing the Electoral College system called “The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact”. If enough states joined the compact it would forever remain a thing of the past.

        I don’t think “America reelected this felon who got in unfairly in 2016 and wrecked the place” is as good a defence of voters as you think it is.
