There are a lot of lessons we should learn from the era of Trumpism.
One of the biggest lessons is this: the voters can be trusted to make the right choice. They choose Hillary Clinton by millions of votes.
The archaic Electoral College is not only unnecessary and undemocratic, it has clearly been shown to put our democratic republic at risk.
Yes to everything you said here, Cypress.
Unfortunately I see no way out of the Electoral College mess.
Donald Trump, moron that he is, seems to think that the Electoral College favors the Democrats. Perhaps there is a way to get the moron to prompt congress and his moronic supporters...to initiate an amendment to change that feature of our Republic.
