    States don’t vote. Individual American citizens do. But you’re ok with peoples votes mattering more or less depending on where they live geographically. We just disagree there
    That's because you have never accepted that the "United States of America" is a union of states with the compromise rules that go along with a union of states.

    I don’t think SR is a fan of n!gger delegates (a more accurate description since their intent is to give a disproportionate amount of votes to mindless Dem monkeys who vote for the establishments’ favorite candidate).

    I'm not proud of either Presidential candidate. It's a terrible reflection on our country that this is the best we can hope for.

    She won the popular vote and lost due to the Electoral College system being the way it is. That's it, and that's all.

    It's like when Dak Prescott and the Cowboys out-gain the other team by 200 yards and still lose because of special teams or turnovers or other crap. It happens.

    Suggesting the system needs to be overhauled so that ultra-blue states like CA and NY with huge populations should be able to bilaterally take over the country is like suggesting the NFL needs to change the rules such that if you gain more yards than your opponent then you should automatically be granted the victory. Both are equally stupid.
    Its stupid that a rural vote has more value than a city vote.

    Though I do think Biden is worse and more fraudulent than Trump. Obviously not a fan of either. Trump has gone back on his promises too much imo. Still better than getting a democrat in. Though it pretty much ensures there will be a democrat in 2024 winning if Trump wins this fall. Hope RBG dies in the meantime though. And Thomas, I love the guy but he's older and not the healthiest dude, he should retire assuming Trump wins.

    It gives the larger/more populous states way too much control and authority over the country and who is in power. If you are a minority voter (red voter in a blue state / blue voter in a red state) and upset about your vote being good-for-nothing, you have every right to relocate at your own will, ideally to a purple state where your opinion will be maximized.

    There's a good reason the Senate has always been considered the Upper Chamber / more respected chamber of Congress, not the House.
    They should have the more control because that is where most of the people live.

    It's also stupid that an immigrant vote (due to loose ID requirements in lapis lazuli blue states) counts the same as a born-and-raised US citizen...

    No, they shouldn't. All 50 states are equal regardless of population. The bigger states shouldn't be allowed to bully the states with a lower population (but often as much or more land).

    If you want to go by population, I'll raise you another option... do it by land acreage... and we'll see just how little power the dumbocrats could have.

    Land doesn't have anything to do with it. The govt is for the people not land. And yes the more popular states should not be losing to the least popular states.

    that's why the Cons ution, even before the Repugs/oligarchy/Chistian taliban weaponized it, is badly out of date, archaic, and deeply anti-democratic.

    But America can't fix anymore, because it doesn't control its own

    It's the lower chamber for a good reason. And the chamber that doesn't get a say on SCOTUS picks, and doesn't make the final calls on major bills/impeachment, etc.

    Please. Dak has two top 15 receivers, the best OL in the league, and the highest paid running back in the league. Dak is not fighting against all odds.

    Shillary had all that, but she also had tons of past history of her lying, war mongering, and engaging in covert ops. And shilling for Wall Street kept the Berners at home on Election night, especially in the states that mattered that she lost by 5 digits in.
    Playing for Jason Garrett is fighting against all odds.

    Thanks, I'll bring this one up when the Cowboys have another average season because Dak, despite impressive yardage numbers, couldn't get the team TDs instead of FG attempts, couldn't convert critical 3rd downs, and couldn't lead the team downfield to win in last-drive situations (eg: Saints, Vikings, Patriots, Eagles games from last year).

    You said Dak was outgaining the other team by 200 hundred yards and they were losing because of special teams. Now Dak is sub par?

    Dak piled up tons of yards last year but couldn't convert in the red zone, couldn't score crucial game winning drives, struggled on 3rd and 4th down, and not to mention a lot of the yards were

    a) when they were way behind, he'd pile up long scoring drives to make the score look respectable, but they'd still lose
    b) when they were absolutely demolishing inferior teams... their point differential was one of the best in the NFL but they were 8-8 because they couldn't win close games.

    Yeah special teams was among the worst in the league, defense was disappointing given the talent... but the offense, despite ranking #1 in the league, wasn't not guilty, either.

    This country is the United STATES of America - each with its own laws, rules, taxes, flavor, etc and with ITS OWN say in who becomes president. BTW, those states who voted to GIVE AWAY their votes to whoever wins the popular vote have given away their say (so stupid).

    People need to get over it. It's not like Hillary didn't know the rules going in. That's like Federer saying "I should have won Wimbledon 2019" because he won the most points (218 to 204) instead of losing 3 tiebreaker sets to 2 (6-7, 6-1, 6-7, 6-4, 12-13)

    Even the electoral college recognizes it. Just does a horrendous job on its own
