The Ohio Trumpbilly just gets dumber and dumber. Not to mention more and more stupid with each tweet...

 

Sounds like a good argument for scrapping the electotal college.

you say that as if there were a bad argument for scrapping the electoral college......(:classic_biggrin:)

( yeah, I know I argued in the past that winner take all by state has the positive effect of clarifying victories, but the population imbalance and the thus the loss of a true democratic outcome has just gotten too bad for that to matter enough....)

I didn't think I would see a Trumper say it must be nice to live in a Socialist country. 

But he'd have to know something about another country to know he said that.

Another thing is we would have known the winner on election night if they had been allowed to count the mail-in ballots ahead of time, but the Republicans didn't want that.  They wanted to make it look like Trump had won and then the election got stolen.

Bingo.

France is going to have a runoff election. No winner has been declared, only two finalists.

I'm all for direct popular vote as well as taking the states out of Federal elections.
 

Hell, let's just abolish states altogether....

I’d love for the EC to go away. I used to be a proponent but now understand the problem with giving power to the few. I just don’t see it happening. You won’t get 2/3 of the states to approve an amendment. The National popular vote initiative has some legal issues to be resolved and I’m not sure the makeup of the court would support it.  I see too much wiggle room. At least based on Wikipedia research 😂

I have to say, I'm with JD Vance on this one. I would love to align ourselves more with France than Russia. 

We've had what, two national elections in the last 60 years where the winner wasn't known at least by early the following morning. He didn't say anything about the EC, that was inferred and I'm not sure he is in favor of killing it.

That said I'm not a fan. Since Mr Madison rarely hangs out a CW I have no idea what his take on it would be today. Next time I see Gen Washington or TJ walking DOG street I'll ask them
