False. Trump won 60% of electoral college. That's hefty
It wasn't close, but if his is a landslide, than larger landslides are the overwhelming norm.

Buckeye vol's passive aggressive stat nerd posting

Here's a fact for you, Donald J Trump will be sworn in as YOUR President of the United States on January 20th 2017. Facts are facts

Your post history suggests otherwise
I'm concerned if he increases government, as a matter of principle, and I enjoy debating things on here, even if irrelevant in reality.
BUT I'm not concerned about how his presidency is going to impact me in regards to things that matter in my own life.

How is finishing the 46th out of 56 electoral elections considered a landslide?

46th in EC, Low Turnout, Lost Popular vote by almost 3% = MASSIVE HISTORICAL LANDSLIDE MOVEMENT UNLIKE ANYTHING EVER SEEN!!!

for you folks that keep suggesting that Trump was campaigning only in swing states for an EC majority, that's correct. and so was HRC. She did not campaign in CA or NY at all. Her campaign focused on the same states that DT did, for the most part.
Trump won, but he has no mandate at all.

So you're here spinning facts and you admit it, it's what you people do best. At least you owned up to it

Wtf are you talking about? Sickly Hillary went weeks at a time without showing her face within 6 months of 11/8, President Trump was having several rallies daily during that time in battle states. Please attempt to dispute that so we can further laugh at you.

I'm calling it a landslide to mock the Bill Clinton and Barack Obama wins where they called their margins a landslide.
In reality, it was an impressive win considering he was completely counted out. So yeah Slick Willie and Obummer fans, it was a LANDSLIDE!

its was 2nd only to George Bush 2nd win as the closest vote in recent history
he lost the popular vote
and had faithless electors for what the first in 100 years besides the 2 abstainers in 2000
Yep thats a landslide on Planet Trumpbubble
