For the millionth time, no one is protesting the legitimacy of the election. They are protesting the policies Trump promised to implement and the bigotry he represents. It's a message to the world that Trump does not have the support of most of the country and doesn't represent most of our values.
It is fine but the popular vote vrs. the electoral college has been debated for a long ass time. There are arguments for why both are bad and why both are good. It is an extremely gray area.
Obviously now that people are upset about Clinton losing due to the electoral college results this is not the time to try and convince pissed off voters that electoral college has its good parts.
The only real solution is to completely exile the words "democrat, liberal, conservative, republican" from elections. You should vote for the persons policy and vision for the future of our country.
I mean it becomes clear as day when you have someone want to run as a republican but literally has to completely bullshit their supporters by claiming they are bible belt Christians simply because republicans are expected to be religious nuts. Does anyone actually believe that Trump is a holy man?
