Not that I give a shite because I believe in the EC and am glad that he won, but it's kind of hard to state he won a majority of the people when he in fact got less votes than HRC. He won a majority of the States, which is all that counts.

If he wins the electoral votes in a state then why shouldn't he be able to claim the state population because that's what the electors are based on? Put it to you this way, it makes way more sense to do a majority vote that way by states won than by raw population vote which has ZERO to do with anything.
Think about it if Trump wins Louisiana then he gets all the Electors so why not all the states popular vote. Trump doesn't give Clinton 2/6 electors because she had 30% of the vote?
