anyone with a brian can see he has essentialy no chance of winning.

It's true I'm lacking a Brian. The last Brian I knew was in high school. That guy wasn't very smart about electoral politics, though. Or anything else, for that matter.

1 the electoral collage has historicaly favored the Republican Party, and does not care about the popuar vote.

The electors in the electoral college vote for the candidate they're pledged to. The Biden electors will vote for Biden. If there are more Biden electors than Trump electors, Biden wins.

The electors in the electoral college vote for the candidate they’re pledged to.

And the 2016 election proved that was a lie. There's nothing holding the electors to the will of the people. They'll do whatever the oligarchs want, and everyone not in the club becomes an onahole.
