White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders blatantly lied at Monday’s press briefing about one of her boss’ biggest fixations: the 2016 election results.
Sanders said that President Donald Trump won the votes of an “overwhelming majority of 63 million Americans” in 2016. In reality, Hillary Clinton won 65.8 million votes to Trump’s 63 million, winning the popular vote by about 2.8 million ballots.

In a perfect world one of the press pool would have enough balls or fallopian tubes to yell out
LIAR!
Right to the lying sack of shit’s face
In fact, he won every single one of the voters who voted for him. It was incredible, I tell you, a fabulous 100 percent electoral victory!! But does the Fake News Media ever talk about it?! Noooooooo…
She actually understated her case.
He actually had the overwhelming support of 100% of 63 million Americans. (The only votes that mattered.)
The Audience of One will definitely get that corrected.
He likely did win the overwhelming majority - of the 63 million Americans who voted for him.
That 66 million voted against him is simply inconvenient.
Alexa, what is a ‘pivotal minority’ ?
Long live the electoral college
