Regardless, if you can show me a poll claiming Americans would prefer not to have known various Wikileaked facts pertinent to the election, I'd be interested.
I'm sure that Americans are in some respects grateful for as much probative information as they can get. But I bet a majority would like to see a President Trump make sure that Russia and other foreign powers understand there's a price to pay for meddling in our processes. That's all Graham and McCain are talking about.

And as we mentioned before, there is always the political calculation. Hey maybe they're trying to help the man give himself a break. A well-time proportionate response would end at least some of this puppet talk from dems and nevertrumpers.

This shows how much of a retard you are. Scientific polling is a scam and a propaganda tool by the MSM. Anyone that talks about polling after this election outs themselves as a complete retard. Congrats on the accomplishment.

For their media outlet running anti-Hillary stories?

I don't recall reading that even the Podesta phishing email was linked to a Russian directive. A quote that makes this connection would be helpful.

Should foreign nations now be concerned that our elected officials will want to retaliate against them if their state sponsored media appears to be more against one of our politicians than that politician's opponent?

he also won 3M fewer voters to an unpopular, unappealing lazy candidate with a weak record and a string of well-timed leaks dogging her.


This really doesn't mean anything considering that 3 million came in California and New York.

Legally it means nothing because we don't elect the president by national popular vote tally.

Politically it means something because popular presidents are more capable of moving an agenda than unpopular presidents. I don't suppose you'd argue that a given candidate wouldn't rather win the popular vote big than win it small. Or than one wouldn't rather win it small than lose it.

And California and New York are states just like other states--just much wealthier, more populated, and important to the economy.

I think we both know by now that Trump gives zero fricks about being popular or not. He's going to do what he wants to do and nothing will stop him.

And still states that didn't get their preferred candidate for President elected.

And still millions of wasted votes that came in the wrong places.

The poll didn't have a state-by-state or EC component. It estimated national popular support, and it was off by 6 points. You know this shite. Why are you making me type more than I need to?

You didn't make one salient point in this entire post.

Trump understood that winning a majority of ELECTORAL VOTES was what was constitutionally required to win, therefore he concentrated on winning as many STATES as he could to get their electoral votes.
It worked out that way. He and his surrogates actually spent more time in non-competitive states than did Clinton and hers. She just sucked badly enough for Trump to win the upper Midwest because she didn't realize they were competitive. She wasn't campaigning in California and New York. I believe he had a stop or two in places like Texas, Mississippi, Washington State, etc.

Yep, that's a sure sign you need some introspection.

Similarly, if Mccain and Graham are on your side, chances are you have some problems.

They are a little quick on the trigger. I think they're both patriots. And they'll serve an important role here.
