The final votes remain to be counted but Hillary Clinton got
2 million votes than Donald Trump.
Sixty-one million people cast ballots for Trump.
And the Time and others say as more West Coast votes are
counted her margin is likely to increase.
Hundreds of thousands of voter fraud were reported on
Twitter but a Trump administration is unlikely to investigate. There also were
stories of voter suppression.
In fact, Clinton has accused the FBI of winning the election
for Trump with false accusations.
FBI Director “James Comey's announcement of a new inquiry
into her use of email while secretary of state shortly before election day had stopped
her campaign's momentum,” Clinton told
the BBC.
This same Comey blocked allegations of Russia intervening on
Trump’s side because it was too close to the election.
“The Russian government maintained contacts with members
of Donald J. Trump’s
“immediate entourage” during the American presidential campaign,” one of Russia’s
top diplomats said Thursday.
“There were contacts,” Sergei A. Ryabkov, the deputy foreign
minister, was quoted as saying by the Interfax news agency. “We continue to do
this and have been doing this work during the election campaign,” he said.
This is the fifth time the winner of the popular vote has
lost because states voted in the Electoral College. In all five cases Democrats
had the most votes.
While Trump has sought to be conciliatory, particularly on
Obamacare, it remains to be seen whether the Republicans in the Senate and
House will cooperate. And his base will soon be calling him a liar if he backs
off.
Trump’s “Trump University” fraud trial is still set to begin
Nov. 28. The judge handling the case has refused to delay it but has suggested
a settlement might be a good idea because the presidency is involved.
One again, Trump would be settling a lawsuit with money. And
when will be the public get to see his taxes. He may not be able to hide them
once he is in the White House.
