Trump touts 'historic' Electoral College victory

President-elect Donald Trump touted his Electoral College victory Monday as a "historic electoral landslide" and a next step toward a brighter future.

"I thank the American people for their overwhelming vote to elect me as their next President of the United States," Trump said in a statement.

"The official votes cast by the Electoral College exceeded the 270 required to secure the presidency by a very large margin, far greater than ever anticipated by the media."

Donald Trump's Electoral College victory was not a 'massive landslide'

Donald Trump won enough electoral votes on Election Day to become president. But he and his staff have been trying to make clear that they didn’t just win — they say they steamrolled Hillary Clinton.

"We had a massive landslide victory, as you know, in the Electoral College," Trump told Chris Wallace on the Dec. 11 edition of Fox News Sunday.

That echoed earlier comments by the Trump transition team and a tweet by campaign manager Kellyanne Conway ("306. Landslide. Blowout. Historic"). We previously rated False the statement by Reince Priebus, Trump’s soon-to-be White House chief of staff, that Trump’s victory was "an electoral landslide."

So what about Trump’s own assertion that "we had a massive landslide victory ... in the Electoral College"? (Trump’s transition office did not respond to an inquiry.)

The claim remains well short on evidence

Here is a chart showing the percentage of electoral votes won by every presidential winner since George Washington (who was the only president to win every single electoral vote). It’s drawn from research by John J. Pitney Jr., a Claremont McKenna College political scientist.

Trump’s victory is marked in red. He won 56.88 percent of the available electoral votes.

This chart makes it clear that Trump’s percentage doesn’t rank near the top. In fact, it ranks near the bottom, belonging somewhere between the lowest one-fourth and the lowest one-fifth of all Electoral College victories in history.

"If your share of the electoral vote ranks behind Martin Van Buren's, then you did not win in a landslide," Pitney told PolitiFact.

If you think that comparing elections 200-plus years ago to today is problematic, the math also shows that Trump’s share of the Electoral College vote is low by recent standards.

Since the end of World War II, Trump’s percentage of the Electoral College vote is lower than 12 previous results (1948, 1952, 1956, 1964, 1972, 1980, 1984, 1988, 1992, 1996, 2008 and 2012). By contrast, Trump’s electoral vote haul was bigger than only five elections in the post-World War II era (1960, 1968, 1976, 2000 and 2004). So Trump ranks in the bottom one-third by this metric.

"If Trump’s election was a landslide, then the word ‘landslide’ has no meaning," said University of Denver political scientist Seth Masket.

The popular-vote discrepancy in favor of Hillary Clinton further dampens Trump’s claim.

As of Dec. 12, with a dwindling number of votes remaining to be counted, Clinton is winning the popular vote by 2.84 million votes, or 2.1 percentage points.

While there have been four previous occasions when a presidential candidate lost the Electoral College vote while winning the popular vote, Clinton’s margin of victory is notably large.

Measured by raw votes, Clinton’s margin is currently more than five times bigger than Al Gore’s 2000 popular vote victory.

Losing the popular vote "takes the shine off any Electoral College victory," political scientist Barry Burden, director of the Elections Research Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, told PolitiFact Wisconsin.

Pitney of Claremont McKenna said he’s mystified about why the Trump camp is trying to make such a weak argument in the place of ones that would hold more water.

"If they had just described the outcome as a ‘dramatic upset victory,’ nobody could reasonably disagree," Pitney said.

Our ruling

Trump said, "We had a massive landslide victory, as you know, in the Electoral College."

Trump won, but to call it a "massive landslide" in the Electoral College is not accurate by any reasonable definition. While Trump surpassed the required 270 electoral votes with room to spare, his margin ranks no better than the bottom quarter of Electoral College showings in American history, and no better than the bottom one-third of the showings since the end of World War II.

Trump’s claim is inaccurate, so we rate it False.

The polls had Hillary winning this election hands down, no doubt about it...Hillary was the winner, even the staterunleftist media had magazines ready for distribution, cover page was written HILLARY wins.

So yes, as we take the numbers out of the equation, Trump did win by a masive landslide, and the power of both chambers of Congress remained GOP.

You leftists need to suck up to the reality of this, and respect it.

Also, this was the first attempt by Trump as a POTUS candidate, without being in Congress initially.

I doubt that this information would have been released without reasonable assumption that they had a case to make, and if Trump were president when this information were released, it would never see the light of day... And he would replace the entire CIA and FBI command... Now if he takes office and replaces the command, there would be serious reason to question his motives.

Is the left using the alledged Russian hacks as an excuse?...Fuck yes.

You'll want to now whay I can say this, well, I'll tell ya...the left is using this excuse, because there still to this day, no proof at all.

It's always someone else's fault, it damn sure isn't the leftists fault that they lost an election that they thought they had in the bag.

But here is more.

Findings from Analysis of DNC Intrusion Malware

The Security Consulting team here at Fidelis specializes in investigations of critical security incidents by advanced threat actors. Last week, after Guccifer 2.0 claimed responsibility for the intrusion into the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) servers, we were provided with the malware samples from the CrowdStrike investigation. We performed an independent review of the malware and other data (filenames, file sizes, IP addresses) in order to validate and provide our perspective on the reporting done by CrowdStrike. This blog post provides a summary of our findings.

Many of you may be following the recent news related to the compromise of the Democratic National Committee’s servers that was first reported by our colleagues over at CrowdStrike in a blog post published on June 14, 2016. Their post attributed the incident to Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) actors associated with the Russian Government named COZY BEAR and FANCY BEAR. The following day, the story got all the more interesting when an individual using the moniker Guccifer 2.0 claimed that CrowdStrike got it wrong and that he had, in fact, been the one to penetrate the DNC’s servers.

We have helped hundreds of organizations deal with similar situations so we know the latest tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) exceptionally well. Our analysis relies on the intelligence repository we have built through this analysis as well as Open Source Intelligence to substantiate our findings.

Before we proceed to the details of our analysis here’s a quick cheat sheet on different names that security researchers have used to refer to these threat actors. However, it’s important to note that actor mappings between attribution sets aren't precise. Different research methodologies and necessarily separate encounters with these actors lead to unique attribution sets. The overlaps noted here are commonly accepted.

As part of our investigation, we analyzed the same malware files that were used in the DNC incident. Here are a few highlights of our findings from reverse engineering the provided malware:

1. The malware samples matched the description, form and function that was described in the CrowdStrike blog post. 2. The malware samples contained complex coding structures and utilized obfuscation techniques that we have seen advanced adversaries utilize in other investigations we have conducted. This wasn’t “Script Kiddie” stuff.

3. In addition, they were similar and at times identical to malware that other vendors have associated to these actor sets.

a. For instance, in one of their Unit 42 blog posts Palo Alto Networks provides some detailed reversing and analysis on other malware that they attributed to COZY BEAR named “SeaDuke.” The Fidelis Reverse Engineering team noted that in the samples of “SeaDaddy,” that were provided to us from the DNC incident, there were nearly identical code obfuscation techniques and methods. In fact, once decompiled, the two programs were very similar in form and function. They both used identical persistence methods (Powershell, a RUN registry key, and a .lnk file stored in the Startup directory).

b. The SeaDaddy sample had a self-delete function named “seppuku” which was identified in a previous SeaDuke sample described by Symantec and attributed to the COZY BEAR APT group. It’s worth noting that seppuku is a Japanese word for harakiri or self-disembowelment.

c. For the X-Tunnel sample, which is malware associated with FANCY BEAR, our analysis confirmed three distinct features that are of note:

i. A sample component in the code was named “Xtunnel_Http_Method.exe” as was reported by Microsoft and attributed by them to FANCY BEAR (or “Strontium” as they named the group) in their Security Intelligence Report Volume 19.

ii. There was a copy of OpenSSL embedded in the code and it was version 1.0.1e from February 2013 which was reported on by Netzpolitik and attributed to the same attack group in 2015.

iii. The Command and Control (C2) IPs were hardcoded into the provided sample which also matched the Netzpolotik reporting.

iv. The arguments in the sample were also identical to the Netzpolitik reporting.

4. The malware samples were conspicuously large (1.9 MB for X-Tunnel and 3.1 MB for SeaDaddy) and contained all or most of their embedded dependencies and functional code. This is a very specific modus operandi less sophisticated actors do not employ.

So what does this mean? Who is responsible for the DNC hack? Based on our comparative analysis we agree with CrowdStrike and believe that the COZY BEAR and FANCY BEAR APT groups were involved in successful intrusions at the DNC. The malware samples contain data and programing elements that are similar to malware that we have encountered in past incident response investigations and are linked to similar threat actors.

In addition to CrowdStrike, several other security firms have analyzed and published findings on malware samples that were similar and in some cases nearly identical to those used in the DNC incident. Many of these firms attributed the malware to Russian APT groups.

That brings us to the issue about Guccifer 2.0’s claim of responsibility for the attack. Several researchers have raised questions about the allegedly stolen documents posted by Guccifer 2.0. Ars Technica reported similar findings that align with some of our initial analysis on this topic.

While we believe this settles the question of “who was responsible for the DNC attack,” we will continue to watch, along with the rest of the security community, the new twists and turns this story takes as the U.S. presidential elections swings into full gear.

Nope that's just a Trump lie and your refusal to accept reality. Because Trump not only didn't win by a "landslide" he is entering the presidency with the lowest favorability rating in the history of the Wall Street Journal/NBC poll.

Joy Reid: Trump’s favorability ratings are lower than any incoming president in history of poll

On Monday night’s Hardball, MSNBC’s Joy Reid — filling in for Chris Matthews — revealed that a Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll is showing that President-elect Donald Trump’s favorability numbers are lower than any president’s ever in the history of the poll.

“Forty percent of Americans have a positive view of President-elect Donald Trump,” Reid said. “To put that into context, Trump’s favorability a month before inauguration is actually the worst in the history of the NBC poll.”

In 1992, she said, Pres. Bill Clinton had a 60 percent favorability rating coming into the White House. Pres. George W. Bush had a 48 percent favorability rating, even after the contentious recount battle. In 2008, Pres. Barack Obama was headed into office with a 67 percent approval rating.

This cuts into Trump’s counterfactual claims that he has won a “historic” victory and his even more easily disproven boast that he won the popular vote.

Poll: Majority of Americans Pessimistic or Uncertain About Trump Presidency

As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to be sworn in as the country's commander-in-chief next month, a majority of Americans say they are either uncertain or pessimistic about his presidency, even as the country is sounding a more optimistic tone about the future of the economy and Trump's ability to bring positive change to Washington D.C.

A new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds 54 percent of adults saying that they are either uncertain (25 percent) or pessimistic and worried (29 percent) about how Trump will perform during his presidency, compared with 45 percent with either an optimistic and confident view (22 percent) or a satisfied and hopeful view (23 percent).

Several people are also pointing out the reason Trump keeps holding rallies and avoids the press is because he can lie during his rallies and his supporters believe the lies and the press can't call him out on his lies.
