Without winning the popular vote. The winner of the popular vote, meaning the one with more support from the people in the country, the one who a higher percentage of the voters agreed would be better for the job, was the more liberal person that agreed with many of those positions.
Nice effort, though. I mean, your argument shows a lack of understanding in how the popular vote and the Electoral College numbers are different and that the popular vote correlates more directly to the policy mood of the country. But other than that, nice effort.
