Okay, get the Constitution changed, then.

We'd need a legislature that's 63 percent stone cold stupid...oh, wait...

40% of young people in a survey were not able to properly place which came first and second: the US Civil War and World War II.

One of the top three questions asked by tourists about the Grand Canyon: “When we get down the trail is the Grand Canyon air conditioned?”

We are not in good hands with popular vote democracy.

That’s why the founders gave us “A republic-—if you can keep it.”

Nick must be smoking something. The last thing American needs is loss of the Electoral College.

Not ironic that it takes 2/3rds the Congress or the states to propose an amendment and 3/4ths the states or conventions thereof to change the Constitution, while this poll shows that — barely — less than 2/3rds want the change.

With the destruction that has been judicial review, Madison’s protection of the minority is the final safeguard.

Yeah, let illegals and moonbats in New York $hitty, $hitcago, and The People’s Republic of Californicated decide the election.

Secession would be a better idea!

So they want five states or seven cities to elect the president?
Happened in 2020, the steal, counting till the deal was done whatever you call it, and done blatantly, the total to win the vote stolen by planned strategic locations to pirate the election. Unheard of stats and broken trends aside the ap declared joe elect and all else be damned. If we dont take back our country in november and punish these wrongs we may as well let the dumb rule by edict

The unwisest was...and they noted it....was that the USSC had no check.

______________________________________
The check turned into a treasonous debacle at the Joint Session with Pence the traitor presiding. There was supposed to be a Joint Session deliberative review and certification/non-certification process at the Joint Session instead of the stupid rubber stamp charade we witnessed. I don’t believe Pence even asked the members if there were any objections before they rubber stamped the electoral vote. It was a treasonous usurpation of the electoral process.

My thought exactly. Try getting 3/4 of the state legislatures to sign off not to mention 2/3rds of both Houses of Congress.

Universal suffrage is a disaster. The vote should be earned; those who do not pay the government’s bills should have no voice in how the government is to be run.
