In the United States, a federal statute known as the Posse Comitatus Act forbids the use of the United States Army, and through it, its offspring, the United States Air Force, as a posse comitatus or for law enforcement purposes without the approval of Congress.
According to the Associated Press, Clinton won 487 counties nationwide, compared with 2,626 for President-elect Donald Trump. There are rules to the contest, and Trump won fair and square. The rest is just noise and sore loser whining. If she wants, Hillary can go be the governor of California, or President of Saudi Arabia.
Trump won an impressive victory, carrying 31 out of 50 states. But in several of them â including key states such as Georgia, Arizona, and Texas â he won a smaller percentage of the vote than Mitt Romney did. Indeed, nationally, Trump won 46.2 percent of votes cast, whereas Romney won 47.2 percent. In the 37 states considered ânon-swingâ or uncompetitive this year, Hillary Clintonâs margin of victory was greater than Barack Obamaâs in 2012.
