"Denying the votes of 63 million voters . . . . "

Let's do the math:

HRC received at least 65 million votes. That's a higher number for popular votes.

If you want to use the Electoral College standards, then Trump "won" (Roger Maris style) by only 20,000 votes over five states.

We're talking about having Trump and his minions trying to assert their authority over us because of 20,000 votes. That's all.
20,000 votes, if that. Nowhere close to 63 million, which is still a minority block of voters.

Ten million more people voted for someone OTHER than Trumpy.

Yeah, HRC beat him by 3 million, but another 7 million also thought he was the wrong choice.

against impeachment makes no sense to me. Any president who gets elected and then impeached would have received millions of votes.
