You're right. The first point was not logic. I wasn't even fact. A more accurate statement would have been. "Clinton won the overall vote by a huge margin. More people who voted in the United States wanted her as president than Trump." But I digress because Iwas referring to YOUR conflict of logic in which the two statement conflicted each other. |
What is your evidence, or at the very least your reason for suspecting, that more people who didn't vote wanted President Trump compared to President Clinton, when you do not dispute that of the people who did vote more wanted Clinton vs. Trump? (If the people who didn't vote don't care at all, or are equally split, then the claim "more wanted Clinton than Trump" would still be true. So logically you must believe that the non-voters favored Trump by a huge margin.)
And I would argue that there is no logical conflict whatsoever between "more people wanted Clinton than Trump" and "there is a group of people that just mindlessly votes against whatever party has been in power when the second term expires". He never said that this group was a majority of the country. Just enough to make a swing. Please explain how you think these two claims are in logical conflict with each other.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
