I see an extremely polarizing president’s behavior galvanizing people who normally don’t vote to do so, and four years later the same people not turning out again, due to some mix of outrage fatigue, indifference, death, emigration, sexism, intimidation, overconfidence, voter suppression, etc.
So, hypothetically, if some ballots were manufactured, they were manufactured for both? What makes you so sure then that Trump’s were the token ones and not the bulk of them?
So more voting power to people with unpopular opinions. That seems fair to you?
Life for tens of millions of people in my state is decided by 1 million people on the other side of the country. Is that fair?
How is that minority overriding the will of the majority any better than a monarch in Britain overriding the will of North Carolina’s people as you mentioned above?
And if that minority opinion is good, shouldn’t it gain traction by spreading to other people who see its merit instead of needing extra voting power?
Are you against government assistance programs like most conservatives? Because the electoral college is basically government assistance for opinions not good enough to be popular.
He’ll slash regulation that hinders his profits and those of his family and cronies.
And if he’d cut taxes on the poor instead of the rich, it wouldn’t be the peasants paying. And it’s the “peasants”, not “elites”, that need help paying for the education they need to get a job that won’t be replaced by corporate automation. If big companies are gonna wipe out all the high school -level jobs, maybe they should be helping to pay for the higher education of all the unemployed people they create.
