We are not saying that Trump did not win the electoral college, he did. What we are saying and you keep conflating the two points here, is that he did not get a majority of the votes cast. More people voted for Clinton than Trump .. period.

If people go around saying that " .. his supporters are the majority of the electorate" then they are wrong. This is such a basic point, I am surprised it needs any debate.

If you go around saying that Trump has a popular mandate then this gives a very misleading impression of his support in the country.
