4.4 million Californians voted for Trump but they got zero electoral votes. It’s a stupid system. If we switched to a popular vote, Democrats and Republicans would both have to compete everywhere. The idea that a popular vote margin only comes from one place or one state makes zero sense — the popular vote is the whole country. Trump’s tweets aren’t fear mongering, he uses his Twitter account to attack specific people, companies and political opponents.
