I agree that the EC is crap. But you can’t call the system a failure when it’s working as intended.

I can. If it is working as intended it still is a failure as it clearly shits all over the will of the people and thus is creating a dangerous precedent. Additionally creating a system for electing president which allows for ignoring the result of popular vote is failure in very concept, at least in my view.

ETA: Also if intent of the creators was to stop demagogues from gaining power then system they designed is a double failure given trump "victory".
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.
