I think that Donald Trump got the gob to be president because Hillary Clinton got more votes then Donald Trump but he got more points then her so he got the gob to be president. I don't think that it very fair because Hillary Clinton got more votes but I found out that just because Donald Trump got more points and Hillary Clinton got more votes thats why Donald Trump got the gob. I also think that they could of shared the points and the votes because Hillary got more votes and Donald got more points so it would of been fair if they shared.

    This is already covered elsewhere on the Hub - that Hillary Clinton won the "popular vote" but Donald Trump won the electoral college. However, you've raised an interesting idea - if this happens again in the future, is there a possibility of the two candidates working together? Some governments in the world are made up of "coalitions" - meaning two parties working together. I wonder if a similar thing could happen in America? If anyone wants to answer this, I would take a look at how the government is split into 3 branches before you do: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HuFR5XBYLfU

    The reason that Donald trump won the 2016 American election is the electoral college points where he got more than Hillary Clinton meaning that it overrules the popular vote. In my opinion Trump only won as there are states that always vote for the same presidential party.
