I also found it staggering how suddenly now that Trump wins the Electoral College Vote, but not the popular vote, there is something suddenly wrong with the whole democratic process in the US. Seen lots and and lots of typical BS regarding this, being spouted on Facebook by those in America who voted for Hillary.

I doubt they would have said the same thing if Hillary won via ECV and Donald won the popular vote.
