Trump has already made a point of how corrupt the system is using himself as an example of how he "bought" politicians of all stripes. This issue could have legs.
I would not be surprised if in the next debate someone doesn't ask him "If, as you say, the electoral process is utterly corrupt, how would you fix it?" And then it's off to the races.

I guess the moron doesn’t know that Representative districts are drawn by the states, not by the President

It doesn’t say what his plan is, but since he seems to be a raving idiot, he probably thinks public funding is the answer.
NO WAY.

I went to HS with Larry. He clerked w/ Scalia - got into academia and took a hard left turn. He’s a very bright person, but like a lot of bright people he likes to think he’s the brightest.

I would "fix" it by encouraging states to go to a proportional electoral system and revisiting the 17th amendment.

The President has exactly zero say in state-level redistricting matters.
Just in case anyone thought being a professor at Harvard (or a graduate thereof) implied having two functioning brain cells to rub together.
