If it's a Democrat problem, why do you have such an issue with Democrats wanting to fix Democrat problems?  

>Republicans don't play fair? They seem to be the only ones protecting the Electoral College.

Something about where you live affecting how much your vote counts doesn't seem very fair. 

Democrats in 2000 and 2016 believed that the electoral college would grant them the victory (remember the "blue wall" anyone?).  In both cases, they would have happily taken the win if the election had turned out differently.

Difference really is that Republicans wouldn't have spent years complaining about it.

This is kind of nonsense...

In both 2000 and 2016, some Democrats believed that the Electoral College AND the popular vote would grant them victory. Especially in 2016, there has not been any reasonable expectation that the Democrats would win the Electoral College and lose the popular vote. Yes, democrats would have taken an electoral win in 2016, however, they would have done so with strong popular support, so what point are you trying to make?

And it is hilarious that you honestly think that Republicans wouldn't have spent years complaining about winning the popular vote and losing the electoral college. Trump won and he has still spent years complaining about the election...
