In what world did he "destroy" her? Electoral college count was 279 to 228 (versus 332 to 206 in 2012, for example) and she won the popular vote by 200,000.
No, he didn't, by any measure.
George W 2004: 286 EC votes, 62,040,610 total votes
Trump 2016: 279 EC votes, 59,821,874

Not to be a dick (well maybe a little) but Trump actually got 306 Electoral votes, and it's been officially called as an "electoral landslide".

The really interesting thing though is that Hilary is set to have one of the largest popular votes leads in "losing" history as it just breached 2m votes.
And now we're going to get recounts in WI, PA, and MI......What the was it with this election cycle. |

Not just that, but this cycle was straight up bat crazy.
I actually wonder whether the system can recover or if this marked a turning point, where facts, polls and policy just don't matter anymore. |

can We stop this charade of "but she won the pop vote"? she didn't .
It has been widely reported that there were more than 3 million votes cast by illegal aliens and most, if not all these votes, were cast for Hillary Clinton. When accounting for these votes, Trump beat Clinton by more than 1 million in the popular vote.
Trump destroyed Clinton in the Electoral College votes 306 to 232 or 57% to 43%.
Trump also won more than 30 states with his win of 1 of four delegates in Maine. Trump ended up with 30.25 state wins to Hillary’s 19.75 wins. Hillary didn’t even win 20 states and Trump beat her 61% to 39% in state wins.
Also, Trump won 84% of the US’s 3,083 counties – this was truly a Trump landslide win in all areas. |

I'm inclined to agree with you, but Brazilian democracy suffers from the exact opposite problem, so I'm not sure we can say anything (there are so many parties gridlock is inevitable, and these unstable alliances forced us to adopt something like electoral colleges exclusively for the parliament). Also, we treat presidents like prime ministers and impeach them whenever we feel like passing a no confidence vote.
...
Politics is weird everywhere, isn't it? |

Oh, definitely. Our country is run by a bunch of baboons, and nobody seems to be aware of the fact that we voted them in that position, so who can we really blame? |

You really want to see where he gets this stuff from?
I read that a number of these alt-right "news" sites are run by teenagers in Macedonia, and simply make up to get clicks and ad revenue from right wing nutjobs. |

Who's to blame? People of course. People and politics are tribal. Much like sport fans winning is what matters. Our party against yours etc. Facts and reason be dammed. I can see why our forefathers were afraid unchecked democracy and the wisdom of the masses. It doesn't take much for an angry lynch mob to form and put in power a thug who makes them feel good.
Soulstar, et al are just nutters along for the ride. You can't really take them seriously. |
