I just thought it interesting why he thought it was archaic. Trump seems to approve of governments that have diminished or removed checks and balances.
I didn't realize what an impact the Electoral College had on the one person = one vote concept until this election. Apparently that isn't the case.
I don't think so. I honestly believe people were fed up with the status quo and saw a non-politician as the best option. In many cases, a vote for Trump was a message to the Republican Party in much the same way that a vote for Sanders was a message to the Democratic Party.
On the Republican side, that message was strong enough to win the election. Who'd a thunk it?

One person, one vote still applies, it's just that people have forgotten that the Federal Government is a client of the States and the Electoral College transmits the individual state's wishes to the Feds.
It's one of those checks and balances that brilliantly protects the individual states from the power centers such as New York and California. It's just that the average joe doesn't realize it.

I came across a recipe for a Moroccan tagine that sounds relatively easy to make and the spice combo involved sounds tasty and not too expensive to put together.....I think it will be perfect for an upcoming (I sure hope so, anyway) Impeachment proceeding(s). It is very important for me to get the details right when life events such as this hopefully upcoming Impeachment that showcase human rights and human dignity. I want everything to be right on this day, down to the last tiny inconsequential detail. Rob
