Actually, Hillary Clinton lost the popular vote even with California; so did Donald Trump.

52% voted against Clinton; 54% voted against Trump; 6% voted against both of them.

The Libertarian candidate (Gary Johnson) got 3.5%, the green (Jill Stein) got 1%, conservative McMullen got 1/2%, and the Constitution Party got 0.15%.

Clearly, the Stein voter leaned more for Clinton, but most of the others were more for Trump. Adding these together, we’d have anti-Trump at 49% and anti-Clinton at 51%.

Of course, that’s not how Presidential races are decided, but with Instant-Runoff it’s likely that Trump would have won.
With IRV, you but list as many candidates as you wish, putting your most-favored candidate first,
followed by the next candidate who should get your vote if the first one does not achieve a majority.
There is no scenario where Hillary could possible have won with IRV.

The President Has Authority to Dictate Immigration
Gregg Jarrett

Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution gives Congress the power to regulate immigration. In 1952, Congress passed a law empowering the president to deny entry into the U.S. to “any class of aliens” considered to be “detrimental to the interests of the United States.” In other words, a threat to America and in the interests of national security.

As I pointed out in a recent column, the Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled that Congress and the president have “plenary power” to regulate immigration. For more than a century, the high court has consistently upheld such authority and rejected constitutional challenges to presidential action banning entire groups of foreigners. Even the 9th Circuit has endorsed this legal principle. Past presidents, including Carter and Obama, have issued orders similar to Trump’s.

It is true that a subsequent 1965 immigration law prohibits discrimination based on race, sex, nationality, place of birth or place of residence. But that law says nothing about religion. And, more importantly, it applies only to the issuance of visas. The president’s authority to deny entry to a large class of aliens is a broader power which supersedes individual visa considerations.
