Should Trump be added to Rushmore?

Paradox. You cannot argue both sides of a paradox, Sybil.

What paradox, Sybil?

Are you claiming that George W. Bush had a greater percentage of the popular vote in 2000 - and that all the whining by the democrats was based on lies?

To be representative electors would have to be allocated based on the percentage each candidate receives.

39 states use a "winner takes all" method - meaning that in a case of 49.999% to 50.001% - all of the electors go to the one who barely exceeded in popular vote.

Worse than that, we have two states, California and Oregon who assigns elector to the the democrat regardless of who has the highest vote count.

Only 9 states allocate based on popular vote.

What an ignorant claim. We have repeatedly seen candidates win the popular vote but lose the election.

You just said it does - that the EC is based on the popular vote.

You seem highly confuse, incapable of forming a cogent idea.

Correctly?

ROFL



Ignorantly false

Each elector has exactly one vote. No more, no less. Regardless of what state they come from.



Ignorantly false. They don't align because the EC is not based on the popular vote. The "winner take all" approach

The ratio of EC votes to population isn't even.

Ohio is the most under represented - 19 EC votes for 9 million voting-age people.

Wyoming is the most over represented with 3 EC votes for 434,000 voting age people.

To have 3 EC votes, and have the same ratio of EC votes to voters as Ohio, Wyoming should have a voting population of over 2 million.

That's why I'm saying that correctly aligned EC votes would prevent the situation where we have an EC winner that loses the popular vote.

Posting random Holy Links now?

I know you aren't big on "relevant information".

Your continual denial of the Constitution of the United States does not work, Void.

Again, I'm telling how things actually work. If you choose to deny how things actually work, that's on you.

I am not you. You need to resolve your paradox.

A random Holy Link is not relevant. Relevance fallacy.

Inversion fallacy. It is YOU denying the Constitution of the United States.

It's relevant if you want to be informed.

You can't make the Constitution just disappear, Void. You are just trying to deny and discard the Constitution.

Relevance fallacy. Redefinition fallacy.

The Constitution exists. State laws exist.

It's not either/or....which you already knew but, as always, choose to play dumb.

None of the words I used are redefined based on your pretend confusion.

Cultists worship Trump.

Can you make a list of who these "cultists" are who worship Trump? I'd be interested in seeing what you have to say on the matter.

Who was it who wanted Trump on Mount Rushmore?

The purpose of creating Mt. Rushmore was to elevate tourism within the State. Adding Trump to Mt. Rushmore will handily augment the extent to which that goal is reached.

"the feeling or expression of reverence and adoration"

Trump can do no wrong.

The top of the list would be you.

Um what? You certainly didn't say that. Unbelievable.
