“One reason the electoral college crybabies crack me up is that it never occurred to them that Trump’s strategy was around an electoral college paradigm. If we had a “popular vote” scenario, he would have molded his strategy around that.”

This is simply another observation of their uni-dimensional thinking. It also shows up in economics, when they claim that increasing X tax will generate $Y of revenue...and then they’re shocked to the core when people change their behavior and it generates a net loss of revenue. They are just not deep thinkers, and I’m convinced that this is because they are very much like children - they are simply incapable of it. Maybe this is because they have never been in the private sector, where you have to be nimble in reacting to competition, because EVERYONE is looking for an advantage, even if it is only 1%.

You and I perceive this whole thing pretty much identically. Frankly, I think it’s why the “revolutionaries” are always the young people. They are easily manipulated and operate mostly on emotion - until age 25, where at least most of them grow up.

This is why the Democrats want to reduce the voting age to 16. 18 just wasn’t enough. This would be a very different country if the voting age was 25.
