Trump Again Forgets Hillary Won Popular Vote, Tweets ‘When the American People Speak, ALL of US Should Listen’
Yes. So, Resign?
President Trump delivered his “America first” national security strategy speech Monday afternoon, but apparently forgot he lost the popular vote. Were the United States a true democracy, there would be no Electoral College, which is who elected Donald Trump president. Trump lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton by almost 3 million votes.Â
“When the American People speak, ALL OF US should listen,” Trump, in his speech Monda, and in a clip he posted to Twitter, said. “Just over one year ago, you spoke loud and you spoke clear. On November 8, 2016, you voted to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
