President-elect Donald Trump returned to Twitter, saying that he would have won the popular vote if he tried to.
“If the election were based on total popular vote I would have campaigned in N.Y., Florida, and California and won even bigger and more easily,” he wrote.
What Trump appears to suggest is that if the U.S. election system was based solely on the popular vote, which Hillary Clinton won by nearly 1 million votes, Trump would have used a different strategy to gain the popular vote by going to the three most populous states in the United States.
