how?! HOW?!!. "
The answer is: Electoral College. He didn't really lose. But, lots of folk,
like yourself, who may not have taken Government 101, don't seem to
understand that.
Plenty of reference materials are available at your local library. You could
also do a search on Google.com, and find some answers, also. Not trying to
be a smart ass, I just assume you don't understand the democratic process in
this country, because you may not have been educated on it. Believe it or
not there are kids in high school taking calculus, that do not understand
the concept of Pi, or how to figure the square root of a number without a
calculator.
