How dare the people get what they vote for!
Neither winning the Presidency nor any house of Congress requires an actual majority of voters, let alone a majority of citizens.
GWB received fewer votes than Gore. In the current HOR, Repubs have a majority of members despite receiving fewer votes. Two Senators from Wyoming have the same voting power as two Senators from California. Clinton won the Presidency with a mere plurality.
Any Party winning the right to govern also has the obligation to respect the truth of the matter, that they may not represent a true majority at all. Any party acting as a loyal minority needs to grant the ruling party the right to perform basic governance as they see fit within the current framework, to have their executive branch appointees within reason and to have their judicial appointees receive consideration based mostly on their competence rather than their politics.
We both know that Repubs haven't acted that way during the Obama Admin, nor did they during the Clinton years.
I seriously doubt that the majority voted for taking the full faith & credit of the govt hostage, for example. I seriously doubt that they voted for holding extended UI hostage to tax cuts for the Rich, either, but Repubs executed both moves even while in the minority.
