. Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by 2.8 million votes or 2.1% – within the margin of error in the polls who got it wrong. In fact just counting the three states she needed to win, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, Trump won the electoral votes by only a total of 110,000 votes or 0.09% of the 125 million people who voted.
52% of Republicans believe Donald Trump won the popular vote apposed to 17% of Democrats. So why are Democrats three times better informed than Republicans?

It’s not fake news alone that drives the Republican media machine, in fact bad news and no news have an even larger effect on the Republican Base than fake news which pretty much comes to us by foreign entities playing ADSENSE for profit and far Right ideological websites like WND and WESTERN JOURNALISM that end up feeding social media.
Speaking of Fake News there is now a trend in their bubble that the fainting spell video Hillary Clinton experienced getting into a car was because of a chemical imbalance of enzymes caused by her eating children. That not only did she have a tunnel leading into Comet Pizza to kidnap and sodomize children, but she ate the ones too young to rape. This of course caused an Alex Jones / Donald Trump fan to go shoot up the place with an AR15. This began with The Donald’s good personal friend and source for his conspiracy theories INFOWARS and Alex Jones. Though The Donald’s most credible source of information is The National Enquirer who he believes should get the Nobel Prize

But what is an even greater threat to an informed voting public is that Fox News, the entire package of talk radio and the big popular Right-wing websites like Maxnews, Drudge, Breitbart who either refuse to report news or spin it so far to the Right it becomes what their audience actually believes is fair and balanced.
52% of Republicans do not know Donald Trump lost the popular vote by 2.8 million because such things are not reported inside their bubble. It destroys their LANDSLIDE and MANDATE themes.
The reality is that what Republicans refer to as the “lame stream media” is not about a liberal bias but about a lack of conservative bias. They hate CNN and the NYTIMES so much they have killing on their minds.
You can bet your bottom dollar that those 52% of Republicans who do not know Trump lost the election by almost 3 million votes also believe the Earth is 6000 years old, Global Warming is a hoax and another shot of tinkle down economics will work for them this time.
