Just wanna say how wild it is that in 2000 bush lost the popular vote by 0.5% and won the electoral college by 5, a small enough margin that I remember people at the time saying that it was extremely unlikely and would probably never happen again, and then in 2016 Trump lost the popular vote by 2% and won the electoral college by 77, an absolutely huge amount.
