I think its obvious. The idea that someone who gets majority vote on a presidencial election doesn't get to rule is something only (old) american's could think up. That is not democratic, especially coming from the "leader of the free world". Its a bit ironic.

With that said, i wish a 3rd candidate would be voted in because Trump is going to be a disaster to the US and the world.

That would mean civil war

Civil war from what is mostly interior and less technological advanced states? ^^

I see what you mean! Its could happen.

The point of the electoral college is to avoid mob rule or a 'tyranny of the majority'. It shouldn't be abolished, but it should be reformed in some way.

Tyranny of the majority? As in opposed to Tiranny of the minority? I don't understand the concept of "tyanny of the majority". It's called Democracy! The majority SHOULD win! Thats the whole concept of every vote beeing equal.
