North Korea threatens to withdraw from summit with Trump

It is not how we elect a President in the United States of America and therefore the point is moot. No one in the forum knows how the popular vote would have turned out if that was the standard before the election, not one that many have chosen to employ after the election.

President Trump won the election in large part because of the policies he supports. It's OK to be mad about it; just stop embarrassing yourselves, by continually saying..."but he lost in a system we don't use"

Lucie specifically brought up the notion of Trump's policies being in the majority, and that is something that isn't reflected in the raw data.  The topic of debate was whether or not Trump's policies represent what the majority of voters want.  The data suggests the majority of the voters voted for Clinton as well as against Trump. When someone asserts that 46 is bigger than 48 you should expect someone to call him out on it. So what?

Neither the electoral college, nor the results of the election enter into this specific argument.
