    “Trump has only half of the popular vote”

    What’s divisive about that? Honest question, I’m genuinely oblivious.

      He didn’t even have half of the popular vote when he got elected. This is recorded historical fact. Clinton received 3m more votes.

        Yeah, okay, but how is the statement “Trump has only half of the popular vote” chase and/or banworthy? Who bans you for that, and for what reasoning? Don’t get me wrong, I’ve seen some pretty weird moderation on some instances, just not this particular instance.

          Ok, that’s a fair question, and I don’t have an answer for that one. I’ve so far successfully avoided this particular landmine.
