image for Trump could lose popular vote by 5 million but still win 2020 election, Michael Moore warns

Michael Moore has warned Donald Trump could lose the popular vote by 5 million but still win the 2020 election, given the Electoral College system.

In 2016, Mr Trump won almost 3 million fewer votes than Hillary Clinton but comfortably won the election by winning key states.

He also predicted that the Democrats would win in 2008 but wrongly predicted Mitt Romney, the Republican candidate, would win in 2012.

This allowed Mr Trump to win the election without winning the popular vote. »

Parrot’s process measures “demand expressions,” which is “its globally standardized TV-demand measurement unit that reflects the desire, engagement, and viewership of a series weighted by importance.”

Netflix already greenlit The Witcher season 2 before the first season ever arrived, so it is certainly satisfied with it.
