    Yeah, that’s not a fucked system at all

    It’s really not. It gets fucked all the time because people expect to coast and not participate with anything more than a tweet. Used to drive me crazy the folks who’d say “by not voting, I’m voting against the system” or some other shit. Jesus… not voting just removes barriers to those crazies like Trump. You gotta be in it to win it.

      I hear your point, though the Electoral College is the glaring flaw in that logic, in regards to presidential elections.
