Packing the Supreme Court then either declaring it changed or having someone sue to get it changed.


It SHOULD take a constitutional amendment but they will find a bunch of assholes who can find enumerations and penumbras to change that.

How is an electoral college fair? Why can't the majority decide? It's decided that way in every other race



What are the other national races of our United States?

No. Land doesn't vote, people do. The current system discourages voting because too many people feel their votes won't count in certain states.

Let CA, NY and IL decide what we do as a country? No thanks.

Lmao. Trust experts. Experts were telling us what to do when and after Covid started. They also changed their statements several times. I doubt trusting “experts” is a good idea regarding policy when so many of them clash on a daily basis as to what the best policy is.

Go to the congressional district electoral college system like Nebraska and Maine, then states like California, Illinois, New York and Virginia would all be in play...

Just teaching accurate American History again would be a start. Maybe throw in a little civics for extra credit.

It doesn't, it actually discourages voter participation.

Experts in what?



WE are not going to allow them the ability to have 3 cities dictate every presidential election. If they try they will be met with gunshots. That isn't even a threat. America will not go quietly into the night.
