    Something something states rights.

    Honestly, the whole election systems is stupid and a big part of what’s wrong with this country.

      This country is what’s wrong with this country. If this country knew how this country was treating this country, this country would attack this country if it wasn’t already attacking this country.

        Well, to be honest, your country attacking your country isn’t that far off with the talk about taking Greenland by force. It would kind of mean that USA is at war with itself having attacked a fellow NATO member (Denmark). Attack against one is an attack against everyone, including the USA.

        –Edit–

        The USA would also be required to defend Denmark against itself, which would be an interesting situation.

      760,000 constituents per district in 2025. That’s compared to 213,000 when the number of US House seats was fixed at 435 back in 1920. Don’t even get me started on the US Senate. Two people representing 50M. Fucking bananas way to run a “representative” democracy.

        Yep, but the system is built to keep 2 parties in power, so neither of them will change anything.

          The system was built by the elits to keep 2 parties in power to use either way to keep their interests in check.

          We can guess which elites won the bid this election… “Drill baby drill!” Fuck those pesky EPA laws, right?
