I think that neither you nor the people crying over Trump's win fail to understand how the electoral college works. The popular vote does not count in the electoral college system.

In practice it does mean that as the majority takes all of a state's electoral votes.
I totally get that the popular vote is just an aggregate of all votes from all states. That there isn't a national election for President as such, rather there's separate state elections.
I'm saying that the popular vote is more representative of how the country voted rather than how they voted
via the electoral college.
