I think there would have been some sort of postseason series , even if McGraw got his way . Quite frankly the shares of the gate receipts the players got were too alluring for the idea to die away . One of the controversies of the 1903 series was that the Pittsburgh players got larger shares than the Boston players . <| sep |> See , this is the problem . You ' re taking my words as threatening when i am literally trying to have a discussion . First off , long time Hillary supporter here so just kniw that going in . Okay , the problem is that the rules on the field at the time of Trump ' s win were legitimate . They were rules both sides agreed on a while back , and rules both parties have relied on . Look , Hillary lost Florida and Ohio . that ' s really big , it more or less equates to a loss as we are used to knowing it . So counting the popular vote is meaningless in a system where the rules suggest its meaningless and the EC is the important part . I ' m not saying that is unfixable , but you cant retroactively cancel a win that is legitimate within the rules before you fix it . I use the term blowback because i feel a lot of people arent willing to accept the reality on the ground . The ' silent majority ' isnt a progressive liberal generation of young voters . The silent majority are the chewspittin , ' gun totin , ' NASCAR watchin , ' rural American ' s who normally choose not to vote . These people , en masse , do not give a flying hoot about ' laws and government , ' but they do understand oversimplified political talking points ie immigration , so when a candidate can tap into that . well . Trump is our answer . I dont like it , but he played the game well and won . now its time to start fixing things , but frankly we ALL made this system that enabled him to thrive . whether it was relaxing definitions of news and opinion , turning a blind eye to big things like citizens united and surveillance , not jailing bankers after the crunch . even the acquittal of the Malheur Standoff . Trump is a result of a cultural problem .
