I wouldn't think in terms of either/or here.
If it were always about going with what the voters wanted, then Mitt Romney was wrong for voting to impeach.
I said in my prior post, I am torn on the EC. But in a theoretical battle between say JFK and Reagan, I could live with an EC win/loss either way.
Trump isn't even 2000. Even today the Bushes hate Trump, none of them are supporting him today.
I think the long term problem is gerrymandering, and the horrible SCOTUS "citizens united" decision. And 35 years of Fucks News hasn't helped.
The EC elected Hitler/Trump, so what was that again about it being a good thing?
Is there any instance where the EC elected a democrat against the popular vote? Think on that, bitch.
