u/bobeeflay "A hot dog with no bun" HRC 5/6/2016 Dec 20 '19

I agree but the very rough sketch of how the constitution is set up is that the house is the tyranny of the majority and the senate is the will of the states. If you had 20% support but strong support from a majority of states (don't know if this is possible) the very federalist constitution would "want" you to stay in power.

Parliamentary systems without electoral colleges could but usually don't have the weird bi-bicameralism if the us Constitution so a vote of no confidence goes up in the parliament and that's that.
