    No the EC is not reflective of the will of the people since the representatives may vote as they please..

    Mexico has yet to pay for the wall and the budget is not balanced and the debt is increasing not decreasing and Trump says "so what!"...

    We have never had a president that was not elected by the electoral college.

    How many times do we need to review this? We've done this daily since November 2016.

    It doesn't matter if Hillary won NY and CA by 90% to 10%. Those are only two states out of 50. That's just 4%.

    I've seen every Republican president in person in my lifetime (Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Bush, Bush). I shook Reagan's hand the day before he was elected president in 1980. But I think that streak will end with Trump. He rarely comes to Texas (solidly red). And when he does come here, it's impossible to get tickets.

    The elimination of NAFTA will generate more revenue for the US and so pay for the wall. Of course, it will also generate more revenue for Mexico. ERight now Mexico has created a wall of troops to protect the US Southern border.

    Do you have a url for a credible source quoting Trump promising to balance the budget or the debt?

    Overall, the shift from NAFTA to USCMA should not impact the three countries dramatically. Only certain industries will be affected, and only by a small amount. Companies from all three countries are going to be impacted, but with backup plans and new redesigns, hopefully, the transition process will not be long.

    I listened to the first example. He
    I listened to the first video, and half the second. No promises.
    He did say that if his plan was implemented the economy, would surge with higher wages and more jobs. That has happened.

    Do you have a transcript or the exact in context quotes of the specific "promises" to balance the budget and debt? The first word in the 4th video is "maybe".

    Other than "Jeff Van Drew, R-2nd Dist. said or referred to" there is no evidence whatsoever that that 100,000 requests for tickets were ever received.

    I hope they pack a lunch and have a place to stay as many restaurants and motel/hotels in the Wildwood area close for the Winter.

    The MSN article says that local restaurants are not only opening, but staying open late the night before and the night of the Trump rally. This is a big boon for that town. Nice little spurt of profits to be made in about 48 hours.

    Snopes.com addresses this popular (no pun intended) Trumper talking point.

    https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/hillary-clintons-popular-vote-win-came-entirely-from-california/

    It’s true that if California’s vote totals were entirely removed from the equation then Hillary Clinton would lose her popular vote lead, but the logic of that assessment is somewhat flawed. One could, for example, arbitrarily remove the states of New York and Massachusetts from the vote count, docking Clinton roughly 2.6 million votes (and wiping out her popular vote win). Or one could similarly claim that Trump’s electoral vote victory “came entirely from Texas,” since if Clinton had taken the Lone Star state (and its 38 electoral votes), she would also have won the overall election. One could combine any number of states’ vote counts and exclude them from the aggregate, but doing so wouldn’t undo the basic mathematical principle that a vote difference in one state can’t sway the election results to or from a candidate who doesn’t also have significant support from multiple other states. In this case, California wouldn’t have put Clinton over the top in the popular vote total without the additional 61.4 million votes she received in other states.
