Nothing you've stated here supports the last sentence. I'm not saying I disagree with it, but I am saying that there's a gaping hole in your reasoning.
Trump is Putting the "Pee" back in President

Whoops. Never mind. That guy got exposed as a fraud and then deleted his Twitter account. The interwebz never forget, though.
Thank you!
They love to measure the popular vote outcomes, by using electoral vote measures with assessments like that.
I saw something similar on Twitter, basically arguing that presidents should be elected based entirely on geography without any regard whatsoever for population density. It really is bizarre.
New York should just let NYC's mayor be the governor, I guess.
I'm saying that the election should not be decided by 5 to 10 ultra liberal (or conservative) counties... and that is the problem with the PV. It is always swayed by a handful of heavily populated counties in NYC and/or Chicago. So thankfully we have the EC as a true and more accurate method for measuring what the ENTIRE country wants to see happen.
Why not? If that's what the majority of voters choose, what difference does it make where they live or how they're concentrated?

For a guy who was all full of stats and stuff about how Obamacare was actually a good program, you are failing mightily at the interwebs tonight.
I know you're a smart guy and just playing devils advocate with that mess. The EC is here to stay, as it should be. Your bitch lost, move on.
Good point. Let's do away with the Senate too since that body is also not based on national demographics.
Wait wait ... someone besides that old bird Pelosi said "Obamacare is a good program" ??? That cant be true.
So, States should only let a certain percentage of city residents vote, but allow all rural voters to vote when an election for Governor occurs? Otherwise, only liberal governors get elected?
My bitch? Nah, didn't vote for her.
As I suspected, you can't defend your statement. You just like it because it's convenient for you.
You've got a point- I believed you when you told me Obamacare was a good program.
Are you telling me that you really believe Trump hired hookers to piss on a hotel bed? And in the same breath you are telling me to quit believing things I want to believe? Do I have that right?
Don't believe I've ever said that. I have a bad memory, though.
For ****'s sake, you're smarter than this. I never made any assertion about the veracity of the document's contents. Just about the veracity of the document's source.
And can you find a story with named sources? Because I dont give much credence to "unnamed sources" quoted by the big media.
But that's cool if you want to believe unnamed sources. They seem legit.
I did defend it, you just dont like my defense - which is fine. If the EC sucks so bad, by all means, leave the country and settle in somewhere more to your liking. It's called freedom!
So you are saying that the person who wrote the doc is to be believed but what he wrote is garbage?
You're welcome to believe anything you want. Personally, I'm a fan of Occam's razor.
Remind me again where I can find your defense.
Again, I've never said anything about the EC. And sadly, the bit about moving out is not only intellectually tired but kind of insulting if you knew anything about me.
As am I. And the simplest explanation is that the media got trolled and bit hook, line and sinker.
Then quit whining.
Here is my defense, as if you couldnt find it.
"I'm saying that the election should not be decided by 5 to 10 ultra liberal (or conservative) counties... and that is the problem with the PV. It is always swayed by a handful of heavily populated counties in NYC and/or Chicago.

I have no doubt that we all agree that intelligence analysts construct dossiers. You got me there.
Dems and the media are so butt hurt about the election results that they will manufacture and promulgate things they know to be lies just to undermine Trump's credibility.
The media has been lacking integrity for many years now, but they are stooping to an all time low with libelous assertions like this. I have very little respect for the vast majority of media persons today.
The OP is an example of someone who dislikes Trump so much that he is willing and eager to believe anything negative written about him, regardless of veracity. Just swallow it all, hook, line, and sinker, without any attempt to verify the source or the material.
