Hard work won Donald J Trump the Presidency and the Democrats don't have anyone with that kind of stamina. Hard work and the Electoral College. |

Here does that help? So Trump is calling the democratic bluff. So what? You seem to forget it was the Democrats who first brought up doing away with the electoral college. You do remember that, shill? Cat's got your tongue? |

I like Trump, but this is ridiculous! I don't CARE WHO says this, I will not let anyone trample on the COTUS! Trump is just as guilty as the left on this one, open your eyes people! Another asshole.

The electoral college may have been a good idea in the past, but it's unnecessary now. It's very necessary to prevent civil war ... without the electoral college almost the entirety of middle Americas vote would not matter meaning the east and west coasts would control 40 ish states that do not want their control But the matter is to complex for low and average IQs to grasp imho Yeah Riiight! |

You know, a lot of people say ‘Oh, it was close.’ And by the way, they also like to always talk about Electoral College. Well, it’s an election based on the Electoral College. I would rather have a popular election, but it’s a totally different campaign,” Trump said. “It’s as though you're running — if you're a runner, you're practicing for the 100-yard dash as opposed to the 1-mile.” Brilliant |

So how is Trump changing the constitution, moron? That takes a constitutional amendment passed by congress and 2/3 of the states voting affirmative on that amendment. That is not trashing the constitution. That is the standard amendment process already done many times. Learn some civics and history. Trump can't write an EO and do away with the Electoral college. |

I think the mere suggestion this is ok by your golden goose is the problem . Whether or not it will happen isn't as scary as Trump saying the coasts full of communist sympathizers should decide who will be potus . Imagine Socal , the northeast metroplex , chicago miami/orlando deciding who the president is ? Trump says ... Good to go on that . Totally effed . |

Trump says its not a good idea, but is reacting to those Blue state who are writing laws to give the state's vote to the popular vote winner. Not a chance in hell, that the constitution itself will be changed. |
