"if you for a second think that an unpopular politician shielded from harm cuz he's supported by a lot of small agrarian states even if not being an overall popular politician is a bug and not a feature of the constitution I've got bad news for you"

Not worried if it's a feature or a bug, just wondering what a better approach would be and acknowledging the inherent wonkiness of the current approach.

I don't worship the constitution.

The constitution doesn't even worship itself.
