From time to time, left-leaning letters to the editor and columnists like Sid Schwab have said Trump stole the 2016 election by winning the Electoral College.
Hey, you all, please read the U.S. Constitution and learn about the Electoral College. The framers of the Constitution set up the presidential election this way to ensure that large states and cities did not trample the voice of the small states and small towns. It is a compromise that has worked well for over 200 years. If you would check U.S. history, you would find that 2016 was not the first election where the Electoral College winner did not receive a majority of the popular vote. If you think this process is wrong, work to amend the Constitution instead of whining constantly about it.
Speaking of stolen elections, what do you call it when liberal politicians seek to nullify the vote of the people regarding $30 car tabs (again).
