Yes, but that was perfectly clear before the election and the american people still elected him. I don't think that is grounds for impeachment.

No the people rejected Trump but the electoral college denied them their voice. Stop repeating trumpist talking points meant to legitimize him.

The people voted for Trump. The extra Hillary votes just don't matter. Once she hit 50% in California, those extra votes stopped mattering.

It really eats away at you doesn't it?

    The prosecution's case for impeachment cannot be proven to a satisfactory extent at this time, so no.

     I didn't know the truth was a Trumpist talking point. Trump won according to the rules of scoring that were clearly defined ahead of time and that everyone operated under. You are free to promote a change to those rules, but to pretend that they are somehow illegitimate because they did not produce the outcome you wanted is ludicrous. Had the roles been reversed and Clinton lost the PV but won the EV, would you be complaining that the people were denied their voice? Somehow I doubt it.

Come on it's painful too see a smart guy like you resort to something so embarrassingly far from the truth, there is simply no way you did not notice my near constant complains against the Connecticut compromise, electoral college, and filibuster.

To clarify my position is that most unrepresentative electoral systems are morally indefensible regardless of how legal they are.
