All the elections in which the popular vote winner was not the Electoral College winner deserve some mind of asterisk.

Why? The national popular vote is completely irrelevant. We live in a republic, the most durable form of government.
This is the dumbest talking point ever. The USA is a democratic republic

Wrong. The United States are a constitutional republic. Also, the correct verb is "are" and not "is" as the states are plural.
You are not as smart as you think you are. The USA is a republic and a democracy. Being a republic does not preclude being a democracy
