US Election 2012

Mind boggling.

Hmmmm? Ok then....

Cretin.

Cross post mini-rant from the Epic Fail thread:

What I love about the Donald Trump rants is his bit about having a revolution because Obama lost the popular vote but won the electoral vote.

Firstly, Obama is currently about 2.5m voters ahead of Romney (without Florida) which means he was wrong in the first place.

Secondly, the actual phenomenon of winning without winning has only happened four times in American history with the most recent being Bush's inaugural victory in 2000 when he won with 271 electoral votes but only 47.87% of the vote (Gore had 48.38%).

This means the only example, in living memory, of this "travesty" actually got a Republican into the White House.
