New poll shows Trump supporters live in a DIFFERENT reality from the rest of us.. We KNEW that, didn't we?? Let's dig in, shall we?

Hello:

They BELIEVE that unemployment went UP during Obama - Nahh..  It went WAYYY down.

They BELIEVE that the stock market went DOWN during Obama - Nahhh..  It went WAYYY up.

They BELIEVE Clinton LOST the popular vote - Nahhh.. She beat him by 2.7 MILLION votes.

An even greater percentage – 60 percent – think “millions” of people illegally cast their ballots - Nahhhh.  If the libs were smart enough to organize MILLIONS of fraudulent voters, you'd think they'd have them CAST those fraudulent votes in states where they MATTERED.. But, those STOOPID libs had them vote in California where it didn't matter at all..

There's more..  MUCH more..  Check it out.

    No, a troubling amount of Trump supporters believe these things but the ones who don't are the reason he won. The lunatic fringe speaks the loudest and appears as the voice of his support. That and the also troubling fact he gives them a voice in his administration. He seems a man ready to reward supporters from wherever they come and crush his opponents wherever they are. Still the two party system's betrayal of Americans is ultimately the reason he is now in office. Judgment has come. This post was edited by O-uknow at December 9, 2016 8:57 AM MST

    2.7 million votes. That's nice. 

    So why is he the president-elect then?

    Because he won the electoral collage, right? yep

    Why is the electoral collage important?

    Because, if it didn't exist, and everything was decided by a popular vote, the whole country would have to live with whatever California and New York decides. Because that's where the majority of the popular vote would come from, because its more heavily populated. And that wouldn't be fair. The electoral collage gives the whole country a voice, instead of just the densely populated lib areas. 

    Look at all of that red.

    This would be more outrageous if it hasn't been going on for decades.

    As the noted GOP political operative Karl Rove stated, they are no longer members of The Reality-Based Community.

    Right-wingers letting paranoia and authoritarianism short-circuit their prefrontal cortices is nothing new.
