Since the first day I took office, all you hear is the phony Democrat excuse for losing the election, Russia, Russia,Russia. Despite this I have the economy booming and have possibly done more than any 10 month President. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Hillary won in Colorado [9 electoral votes], Nevada [6 electoral votes], Virginia [13 electoral votes], Minnesota [10 electoral votes].
