The Electoral College exists specifically so stupid people can’t elect a stupid person like Harris by a simple majority vote.

Packing the Supreme Court is another stupid idea put forth by people who cannot win legal arguments on the merits.

If you ask me, Kamala Harris is nothing but bad ideas. I have nothing but seething contempt for her.

For the sake of argument, imagine that there were global elections. Would the myriad small countries and populations in the rest of the world want everything determined by India and China alone?

The Electoral College isn’t “democratic” they complain. That’s exactly the point. Democracy is idiotic, get right down to it. “Universal Suffrage” means anybody can vote, over matters they do not have any skin in the game. At that point it’s merely a kind of advance auction over stolen goods. The founders did a pretty good job at separation of powers, and checks and balances, the best they could to try and keep the baser instincts of human nature at bay. Oddly enough the worst sorts don’t care for it, even some in government. Weird
