What did he mean by this

Can't he just stop now, and say at least SOMETHING consistent?

He's got a point. Without the Electoral College, campaigning would only happen in 10 cities.

It's why Scotland and the north of England are largely ignored with campaigning in our elections.

I bet he really would have won even more if it was popular vote

I know but what about this shit:

twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/266038556504494082

I bet he would have won bigly if illegals didn't vote

Those two both go hand in hand though. Are you retarded?

v v v v v v v

MUCH DIFFERENT

Opinions change?

You hold the exact same opinions on everything that you held 5 years ago...?

There is nothing even remotely inconsistent about what he is saying in those two posts

He realizes the plight of the rural americans after campaigning with them for 2 years, and how the EC helps them out?

Opinions change. He literally said in the tweet "campaigning is different." He got a new perspective actually running.

>changing opinion is a bad thing

Fuck off german fuck

I guess this is the reason Merkels party is still being polled as the biggest party in Germany by far

thats why he said >"actually" I guess...

Still I don't buy it. He says what people want to hear

are you retarded?

Also this. I imagine his opinion on a lot of things changed when he took the opportunity to run and had to look in to a number of systems bigly

That's on you, bro. He's a stream of consciousness - he just says what pops on to his mind, which is why he's so entertaining

This is probably the most retarded argument ever. Of course our opinions changed since 5 years ago, a majority of this website is fucking young. There's a big difference between some guy changing his opinion from when he was 18 to a 70 year old man changing his opinion when he was 65 you stupid fuck.

When you're older you stick more strongly to what you believe, it's why cognitive dissonance is a big thing and the reason why baby boomers are so fucking retarded.

So his logic is:

>say shit to get votes
>change your opinion so you don't "upset" anyone

It's too bad this whole popular vote meme could have been avoided with a couple ad buys in blue states.

PS the whole point of the electoral college is to stop shit candidates (like Hillary) from winning by racking up huge amounts of garbage votes in their safe spaces. Hillary spent all her time fucking around in CA while Trump campaigned intensely in 6 midwest states.

See
You shitposting cunt.

FUCK OFF FUCKING NAZI KRAUT SCATTERRERER REEEEEEEEEEE

His original quote that you pulled up is 3 years before he decided to run. Are you retarded?

Also the second quote is AFTER the election.

>he changed his mind because he won using the same methods he condemned

That's not called changing your mind you dumb cunt, that's called being a hypocrite.

God Sup Forums is fucking retarded.

So three years ago he didn't know what the electoral college is, and why your founding fathers decided to implement it into the constitution. Did he think they were dumb or sth? Really makes you think

I think theres a dingo eating your baby

He learned the ins and outs of it, something Hillary and her supporters clearly haven't given the protests. You retard.

There's nothing inconsistent between the two comments:

First comment: the electoral college is a good thing

Second comment: I could have changed my campaign strategy and still won without the electoral college

There is nothing preventing these two ideas from being held simultaneously. Learn your fucking dialectic, shitskin.

I can agree with you about that. ( not that im a retard tho)

At least the kid's mine. I think abdul's fucking your wife, mate.

he's not even contradicting anything, you can say something is shit in one way but genius in other, that's what he does

What's confusing you here, Ahmed?

He's saying the Electoral College makes all states relevant. The next one says that he would have campaigned differently if it were by popular vote.

He did not campaign in California or other states he had no chance of turning red.

Wow, Sup Forums is really sucking the Donalds Dick
give me a break

This tendency was why he was shit in the debates. His best performance was when he whined how unfair the moderators were half the time.

Could not even be changing opinions, you play to the rules of the game, not to rules you invented yourself.

He was in his 60's when he made that first comment. What new perspective did he gain about the 200+ year old institution since then?

Why don't you ask him or look at what he's said?

>There's a big difference between some guy changing his opinion from when he was 18 to a 70 year old man changing his opinion when he was 65 you stupid fuck.
what an idiotic platitude

What did you think, left and right are exactly the same. Both will bring nwo and wars into fruition. You shoild have seen the shitsporm pol did when I exposed trump for being the part of the establisment (I did cap that but Im not on my computer right now). Only Jesus now can save us.

He actually learned how politics worked and why the electoral college exists

Something most people whining about the popular vote don't understand

>four years ago

I didn't really know what the point of the electoral college was until recently and honestly I'd be willing to bet most Americans don't.

>have an opinion
>4 years later
>change your opinion according to your new experiences

LOOK HE IS ZE FLIPPER FLOPPER NAO

His refreshing honesty is an element of his inconsistency. people aren't really consistent creatures. we change our minds to adapt to new information. At least people who succeed do. part of trumps success is his ability to adapt to any new situations.

did he mean it when he said the electoral college was a travesty? yes. and did he mean it when he said that it was a great system? yes! and he points out that he's aware of the different perspective when he points out he could have won either way.

He actively participated in it.

he probably should let this go

people who understand the EC have already come to terms with it, people who haven't are making decisions based on their emotions and need an emotional response

something like "I promise not to abandon the districts that did not vote for me in California, New York, Florida, Texas, etc" but better

>won't stop trolling
>rubbing in their fucking face on twitter

This is going to be the best presidency ever

fuc
king
this

Those tweets are quite insightful.

>People are not allowed to evolve and change their opinons

How's that working out for you Miss Morecoal?

Four years ago he was just a political layman, and the knee jerk reaction every layman has to the electoral college is "that's stupid/unfair, it should just go by popular vote" until they actually look into the reasons behind why the electoral college exists.

The only odd thing about the EC is the "winner takes all" principle.
