I don't know if Donald Trump is a tactical genius or surrounded in a cloud of luck. Remember when he said he wouldn't accept the election results if he lost and the outcry at his comments? Now all the pundits who question these results have tweets from a couple of weeks ago saying things like "You have to accept the result, that's how democracy works!" effectively invalidating their arguments today. If on purpose that is some Lannister level statecraft.
You can down vote all you want. Game recognises game. You don't have to support someone for that.
