I do hope some serious efforts can bet underway to start
getting rid of the Electoral College.

Like it or not, the Electoral College is functioning exactly as the
founding fathers intended: It keeps the large population centers from
dominating the executive branch. You may not like the middle of the
country but the people who live ther are entitled to have a say in
things.

Trump would agree with you

Trump's problem is that he alienated too many people in the middle of
the country with his boorish and infantile behavior. It took them a
while to figue him out however.



Seems like a sizeable number in here not only like that boorish and
infantile behaviour but embrace it.
Sad...bigly!


No, we actually liked what he accomplished as a President. Did not get us
in a new war like the last 4 did. Tried to get us from spending our money
to pay for Europe defense, drew down from Mid East wars, rolled back lots
of bureaucratic BS. Other presidents were assholes, but not as New York
boorish.
