          No, it wasn’t, even by the extremely biased and undemocratic standard of the electoral college.

          By percentage of electoral college votes, Trump’s victory ranks 44th out of 60 elections. This is a solidly below-average victory and far from a landslide.

          I mean, the electoral college is a weird weighing of the popular vote by state; ergo, the popular vote does mean things, but the popular vote doesn’t.
