Just because Trump won doesn't mean he's running things yet. Technically, the Biden administration is still in charge until January. This is happening on their watch.

What part of "he won the popular vote" did you not understand? Across all states, more people voted for him than for Harris. Even if there was no electoral college, he would still be president.

Unless you're arguing that electoral college votes should be redistributed in a way that ensures the winner will always be a Democrat...

Communism is just state enforced minimalism.

Calling things you don't like "bullshit" is misobovinist you absolute bigot. It's also racist because Indians love that stuff. Do better.

While there technically might be more choices available in other places (for instance, in Germany there's usually at least 2-3 smaller parties that have a legitimate chance to make it into the Bundestag), de facto it still boils down to the two major parties (conservatives and social democrats) duking it out amongst themselves, and voting 3rd party is merely a matter of choosing who their junior partner will be. It might help sway the resulting coalition's direction on some minor issues but the overall direction is still very much decided by the 500 lbs gorilla.

Well deserved, if you ask me.

FYI, Trump DID also win the popular vote this year. Perhaps it's time to retire this argument.

You're welcome.
