      Republicans haven’t won a popular vote in over 30 years or so. We all know its bullshit, democrats just have a vested interest in keeping up the illusion.

          This is a fatal flaw of forgetting that your vote affects state politics which, arguably, is more impactful on your day to day matters than federal issues.

          Also if you push your state more to the left, the greater odds of the NPVIC being triggered which automatically enables a national popular vote.

            Which would get promptly shut down by our corrupt as fuck SCOTUS.

              Nope. Electoral delegation is completely in control of the states. That why some can partition them (think ME and NE).

                SCOTUS can do literally anything it wants, they’re not constrained by any actual rules or laws or anything.

                  Oh, that’s just hyperbolic defeatism. That type of thinking is really not good for you.

                    Stick your head in the sand, I’m sure they won’t sneak up on you while you’re hiding away from reality.

                    Prove me wrong. Show me literally any mechanism that can constrain the Courts that hasn’t already been ruled out by Democrats and doesn’t require Republicans to vote for it. They can accept bribes and overturn any law they want and openly support insurrectionists and there’s jack shit anyone can do about it.

              Uhmmm… That’s why you vote in primaries as well.

        George W. Bush won the popular vote in 2004.

          Republicans win the popular vote in the past 30 years except for that one time America was super bloodthirsty and wanted a hawk in the white house

      The rest of the world has it figured out that when the USA talks about democracy, it’s fucking lying. Americans still have yet to figure that out.
