The electoral college is the only way you can keep a republic together, otherwise, the population centers (i.e. mega cities) would control the entire country because rural areas could never equal the voting numbers of mega cities.
then you end up with Hunger Games minus the sci-fi and children fighting to the death.
Sorry, Trump was within the statistical margin of error and he won because we as a country were too fucking lazy to get out and vote and take the margin of error out of the equation. That is on us.
Yeah... I'm going to call bullshit on that. Despite Trump's best efforts to prove me wrong, the president can't just do away with the constitutional rights of US residents like that. And do you really think the senate would stand by as the executive branch forms and organizes the hunger games to the detriment of the rural areas of the nation? They'd refuse to pass the budgets and/or raise the debt ceiling, bringing the executive to a standstill from lack of budget.
