So if the people voted and someone who didn't get the most votes won again, how is of by and for the people really valid. Regardless of where we go from here we need to really think about this. What the electoral college has done is give more power to a single vote in certain areas and I dare anyone to say that is fair or makes us equal. In Britian, the measure to leave the EU was, even if misguided,a will of the people. Why do we allow this in the US.

I say this because the majority of people in this country voted against Trump and now they get to watch as the hate groups claims victory and celebrates. There is something so fundamentally fucked up about this.
