Trump plays football to put runs on the scoreboard, not get the most men on base.

I think you are mixing your metaphors before they hatch.

If the Dems don't like the electoral college, they can propose an amendment to the Constitution to go by popular vote. The problem will be that it will then be a race to the bottom of dropping voting age and stuffing ballot boxes in Dem controlled regions.

I would prefer that the electoral college be changed to two at large electors for each state and one for each congressional district like Maine and Nebraska. That way one city's cheating would be limited to a couple of electors instead of spoiling a whole state's worth (presuming that the cheating is in a district which is already a Dem stronghold).

Sorry, but I’m a little slow today. It’s already two senators per state and one elector for each representative district. How is what you’re proposing any different?
