Would we have seen tears and protests if Hillary had won the Electoral vote and Trump won the popular vote???
Protests? No! Because the system worked “correctly” of course!!!
Tears? You bet! Tears of joy, of ecstasy, while they are enraptured in their Nirvana.
The teddy bear and play-dough toting snowflakes (many of whom didn’t even vote) protesting to change the Electoral College system do realize in another election the outcome could be the reverse … . .
right??
The popular vote analogous to “yards gained” in football / or “time of possession”
Virtually every weekend there are football games where the losing team has more yards gained or a higher time of possession than the winner
“We” [but of course we are the “good guys” so it’s ok] have done this multiple times in history
Of course Democrats are inconsistent on this. And of course, Republicans would be just as inconsistent and absurd if the roles were reversed. Don’t forget that many of the Republicans supporting Trump in spite of his sexual escapades were the ones saying a few decades ago that Clinton’s sexual problem disqualified him from the White House.

If this were a debate and that was my way of attacking the author’s argument, yes it would be a logical fallacy. But I am not debating. I am merely pointing out some hypocrisy and absurdity.
Get ready for the same thing to happen across the country. It’s just another day in Wisconsin.
