The Democrats would have to change their entire platform to not pander to identity politics. When the game plan they use involves trying to find as many people as they can to convince they're a victim of (fill in the blank), it's all they have. I'm not real sure they could run an election without doing it. When it comes to poor whites, unless they are willing to accept the victimhood status Democrats are willing to place on them, Democrats have no use for them. The Democrat mindset for those folks is that they are poor because they choose to be poor. When it comes to minorities, and they seem to be more willing to accept the victimhood status placed on them, Democrats have a easy time getting their votes.
The voter ID opposition by Democrats is a prime example of minorities being more willing to accept the victimhood status Democrats are willing to place on them. The laws in my state related to voter ID apply to everyone the same. There are no additional or special requirements for minorities when it comes to what type of ID they have to have. Somehow, to Democrats, the laws that are written across the board equally only keep certain groups from getting that ID while, according to Democrats, don't negatively affect others. By doing so, Democrats are saying that those who can't do what others seem to have no problem doing are either too dumb or too lazy to adhere to what the ones they ignore have no problem getting done.
With the way Democrats pander to identify politics, their ideal candidate would be a transgendered, bisexual, restroom confused, cross dressing, hermaphrodite minority.
According to the Constitution, it isn't wrong. If you understood WHY the system we use was put in place, you wouldn't address popular vote totals. The only popular vote totals that matter are the ones within each state not nationwide. I can guarantee, ,with the exception of Maine, that the statewide popular vote winner in each state won all of that state's electoral votes. In Maine, they base it on congressional districts. Trump won one of those and Clinton won the other. For the 2 representing the Senators, Clinton won those because she won the overall popular vote for the state as a whole.
If you can prove Russian tampering, do so.
