There are 3,141 counties in the United States.
Trump won 3,084 of them.
Clinton won 57.
There are 62 counties in New York State.
Trump won 46 of them.
Clinton won 16
Clinton won the popular vote by approx. 1.5 million votes.
In the 5 counties that encompass NYC, (Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Richmond & Queens) Clinton received well over 2 million more votes than Trump. (Clinton only won 4 of these counties, Trump won Richmond)
Therefore these 5 counties alone, more than accounted for Clinton winning the popular vote of the entire country.
These 5 counties comprise 319 square miles.
The United States is comprised of 3,797,000 square miles.
When you have a country that encompasses almost 4 million square miles of territory, it would be ludicrous to even suggest that the vote of those who inhabit a mere 319 square miles should dictate the outcome of a national election.
Large densely populated Democrat cities (NYC, CHICAGO, LA, ETC.) DO NOT and SHOULD NOT speak for the rest of the country!
And…it’s been verified and documented that those aforementioned 319 square miles are where the majority of our nation’s problems foment.
Just remember this when Democrats try to say it’s not about gun confiscation and criminalizing law abiding citizens and just “common sense” gun laws.
