This isn't about "math", it's about your lies. As usual, what you do is present a half truth and then attempt to disguise it with a mountain of gibberish.
The electorate doesn't "vote" they "cast ballots". NONE of the candidates on the ballots received a "majority" of the ballots that were cast. By saying that Trump didn't received a majority of votes, you equate "votes" to those cast ballots. Next your inferred idea that someone else actually did receive a majority of "votes" raises the specter of the debunked "popular vote" argument. Which you then toss overboard when caught at it. Thus, a LIE by inference and denial of your own intentions and words.
From there you attempt to be disingenuous by parsing what you previously said and mixing those words with things not stated and the inference above to promote a narrative which is not supported by our political system. Thus a LIE by misdirection and false propaganda.
Finally, you exclude pertinent facts. "The voters" who elected Trump were those who attended the Electoral College. Of those 538 VOTERS, 301 voted for Trump. That is a "majority". Which means you flat out LIED in your statement.
The above is an illustration on the way you debate the issues - you lie and then lie some more when caught at it. It is also why your arguments are weak and ineffective. You intentionally omit facts, fabricate fantasies and promote them as truths, and then use misdirection as a defense when caught at it. Which makes you nothing more than an idjit whose favorite pants smell like smoke and have charred edges.
FACT = 301 out of 538 VOTERS voted for Trump. That is a clear "majority" by math or any other rational metric.
Out of curiosity, what is your win-loss record in court?
You’re confused (that reading comprehension and critical thinking thing again?), so let’s keep it simple. I was clearly talking about the majority of voters, people like you and me who go to the polls and cast a vote. I was not talking about the electoral college, that was clear. You guys get defensive about votes. Though I like how you “caught” me at something that you misunderstood.
So, I said the majority of voters didn’t want Trump to be president. I suppose you ignored my link, though that might have helped clear things up for you. Let me help you with an example.
Candidate Popular votes
Trump. 63
Clinton. 66
Sanders. 4
Other A. 1
Other B. .5
Other C. .5
Total votes = 135
The above Math, based on the link I provided, says >50% of voters (not electors) voted against Trump. That means a majority of people (not electors) who voted didn’t want Trump to be president. Feel free to go to the link and do the math yourself.
Simple math. It’s not complicated and there was nothing disingenuous/misdirection/false propaganda except in your imagination. You know, if you had posted this last night I would have written it off as you being tired or overserved. But to post your delusion after a second cup of coffee?
