My point is that not ALL of the people voted for him. That means that the majority of American citizens wanted Hillary to win. She is more popular that Trump but our archaic electoral system gave him the win.

The technicality us what you're saying, let's get passed that because majority us the term.
Those who didn't vote there's nothing we can do about it. The truth is it works both ways, they could have voted for either of them. Either all of them for Trump or for that liar.
Now the results are official, he's the president you voted or not.

And secret, you mean to say that because so many opted not to exercise their constitutional rights and yet he won, now it can't be claimed that those people who voted for him like me, can't be said "people"?

The OP generalized the word "people" meaning everyone.
Yeah, I know that you are a people
The title of the thread should have been "Some" of the people has (sic) spoken

Still, the results show that of all the people who did vote, it was roughly a split down the middle between the two candidates. This clearly shows a division OF the people, and one that our corrupt government has been trying very hard to accomplish. This is why I hate having a political party system consisting of only two to choose from...it's too easily manipulated and takes the United out of our States.
We can continue pointing fingers at those who voted left or right or we can all start banding together as a people and work to get our country back on the right track. And that track is 'Of the people, by the people, for the people.' not 'Of the people, by the government for the government' as it has been.
We should be asking ourselves; "Which mindset will be best for me and my loved ones, and generations to come?"

You thank you.
Just remember these kind of people? Nothing will please them.

Well, if my vote that contributed to Trump's win happened to also put the bur under their saddle, all I can say is that it's a long, hard fall off of that high horse.
