    When a Republican wins because of the Electoral College the Founders set up, suddenly you hate it?

    Libcucks: WTF I hate the Electoral College now. LOL

    Or is it that Team Trump played 4 D chess in the last weeks of the campaign and concentrated on the states that were close enough to go red?

    The post is ignorant many ways at once. Was it seminal and better than no voting and a monarchy and therefore revolutionary political thought implemented? Hell yes. But one man one vote it was not.
    But now (largely thanks to the GOP) we have a much expanded suffrage.

    So no, the original franchise wasn't what we have today - no thanks to the DemocRats who fought a treasonous rebellion to keep black Americans from equality.

    To each his own whether they choose college is for them. The reality is many (white collar) jobs today require a college degree.

    wrong.
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    of course.......that is what the Constitution intended......of course we've also just discovered that there aren't as many Californians as claimed and they have both too many electoral votes and too many congressmen.......will that deception be corrected before the next election?.......

    Where exactly did I say I hate it? I just said that's what happened. Get out of your own head for a minute.

    It was an aside. Or are you self-identifying as a libcuck?

No, she just took a different path than myself. My dad might think she was indoctrinated though lol.
    Sounds like your dumbass dad raised a dumbass son but had a daughter that was smart enough to think for herself.

    That same argument could be applied to atheists that get pissy because they see the 10 Commandments.

    The reason Trump got elected was he received 304 electoral votes from 51 separate elections while your bitch only received 227. Simple math and nothing more than excuses from a crying Liberal piece of shit.

    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    And many more (trades) do not.
    Kids need to work out what they want to be when they grow up. Not parents, not government.
    Sadly government made colleges need to compete and so kids get sent where it's not in them to succeed.
    Government is always the problem never the solution.
