      The electoral system is designed to favor them. Trump only had a plurality at 49.9%, did you know that? And the first time he didn’t even have a plurality.

      Doesn’t matter. Red states where livestock outnumber voters get extra representation per capita because this country was founded as a settler-colony. A voter in Wyoming wields roughly 3.6 times more influence in presidential elections than a voter in California. The US is structurally undemocratic.
