Actually, the people didn't vote for him. Hillary had 200,000 more votes, but the electoral college chose Trump. Very similar to Gore and Bush.

Waaaaa the electoral college has been used forever. Quit crying...bet if trump lost but won popular vote..you would be fine with it
-
No, I wouldn't. If Trump won the popular vote, then so be it. But he [b]didn't[/b]. The Electoral College needs to be changed. Both Democrats and Republicans agree on this, it's not one-sided.
-
I don't agree. The idea is to protect the against majority rules...hence our electoral system
-
So you're saying that you don't want the majority to decide the president? Okay then
-
Nope. History has always warned us about majority rule
-
Example? Direct democracy has never seen a problem to my knowledge. Dictatorship, yes, but not direct democracy.
-
So you can't see an issue of the majority forcing its will against a minority with no checks?
-
I can absolutely see the problem there, except that there are checks. Many of them. It's not it would become anarchy. The majority of people voted for Clinton, the minority for Trump. Yet he still won; that shouldn't happen.
-
Our country was designed to prevent the tyranny of the majority with balances like the electoral college. Sorry it didn't work out 4 hillary. But a way beyyrr process thsn allowing the mob rule. Have a great day

The electoral college has changed from its intended use
-
Which has made it even more useless.
-
That's one of the reasons why I didn't vote
-
Not voting is even worse.
-
Holy fuсk, you're alive?!
-
... yeah. Just got back on to this site recently though... I didn't realize I was missed.
-
I missed you bby ;3; itsa me, Po!
-
Oh, shit, Po! How've ya been?
-
Been doing meh. How's college been?
-
It's been.. well.. interesting.. it took a lot of adjusting to get used to it, but it's been pretty good so far.. is the dojo still up?
-
Yeah, lived on for a long time. Original post got abandoned (as we couldn't edit the rules) so there's a nee post/group tun by pants. I left about a month ago due to IRL and some other reasons, but I believe it's still alive
-
Good to hear.. Probably for the best that it's someone else's post lol.. I'm not nearly active enough to run anything on here anymore.
-
Yeah, lol. The place is sorta chaotic as of now, even with Pants in charge. Plots, subplots, edgy fuсkfaces(huehue, totally never had an edgy char... -cri-) and tension between people made it a constant warground.
