    Australian here. With how Trump has being portrayed in the media. It seems the guy is teflon and can do no wrong in the eyes of the general American public. Fully expect him to be the next president.

      Trump never won the popular vote. Most Americans don’t like him. The only reason why he became president is because of the antiquated electoral voting system that has be heavily abused by voter suppression, gerrymandering, and flat out voter fraud.

          No. I don’t see the electoral college being brought down anytime soon. Actually, the Republicans might agree to change it if Texas turns blue.
