Clinton’s Lead Over Trump Expands to 2.65 Million Votes
Always Remember: Trump Has No Mandate
It’s four weeks after the 2016 presidential election and the votes are still being counted. As of Tuesday morning Hillary Clinton is beating Donald Trump by more than 2.65 million votes;Â 2,654,233 to be exact, according to the National Popular Vote Tracker via the Cook Political Report.
In two more weeks the Electoral College will meet and will officially choose Donald Trump as the President of the United States.
But never, ever, can he be allowed to claim he has a mandate.
