Democrats are the darksydephil of politics

If the electoral college was such a fucking issue in 2000 why wasn't it changed by 2008 when the ill-will people had for president George w. Bush gave democrats a lot of congressional seats and a president? I bet my left sideburn that if president Donald trump loses his reelection bid and the democrats take control again they will not change this apparently grave threat to national sovereignty.
It takes 3/4 of states to ratify an ammendment, they are incapable of changing it. It'd require a large number of small states voting to make themselves irrelevant, so it is never going to happen.

2000 isn't even the only time this happened, 1876 in particular makes 2000 look like a fine upstanding consensus

I don't really lump 2000 into that myself because it was such an extraordinary circumstance, with the election coming down to a few thousand votes in one state. Plus people bitched more about hanging chads and vote counting.

The left do it before elections, after they lose, and after they win. Just non stop shit flinging.

Thats just politics though

And of course the only thing politicians can agree on is that politicians are very important and should be given lots of wealth, opportunities, and freedom from laws they don't like but still pass for the people

The reigning parties will never allow a different voting system to be put in place if they stand to lose. FPTP ensures the two major parties the highest chance of success. They often encourage third parties aligned with their opponent's views to try and pull votes away from the main party and leave them with a higher proportion of the pie.

First past the post is hot garbag and it's garbage we're going to live with unless enough people demand it be changed. Any chance to implement transferable voting in the UK got strangled in its crib by Labour and the Tories.

It doesn't require a constitutional amendment.
States have to collect votes from their population, and they have to decide how to assign their electoral votes, but they are entitled to do that assigning however they see fit.

This is why the NPVIC exists: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_ ... te_Compact

Basically it's an agreement between a number of states to assign their electoral votes to whoever wins the popular vote. It becomes active as soon as there are enough states signed on to it to guarantee an electoral college win for whoever wins the popular vote.

The dangerous part of this is that these conservative governments are going to inevitably fuck over the working class at some point or pass some horrendously authoritarian legislation (not saying the self-declared "left" won't either), and nobody is going to listen to the critics because they cried wolf.

It's hilarious that there are some people that actually believe Trump'll get impeached and are comparing him firing a guy that literally nobody liked to Watergate.

This is nothing like Watergate. 'Cept maybe for Hillary. Watergate was eminently obvious that the president had actually committed a crime, the best they have for Trump is that he might have money in Russia, which is neither surprising as he's a fucking millionaire nor a crime.

The Republicans would never in a million years vote Trump out for something like this.

If Clinton is guilty, he fucked up the investigation terribly
If Clinton is not guilty, he fucked it up and kept bringing it up at times that would be seen as inopportune

Either way, he fucked up. Fucked up enough to get fired? I don't know. But if a detective fucked up to that degree I'd imagine they'd at the least get shouted at by the boss.
I'm sure Trump is eager to assign his own goy to the FBI director post now though. And I'm sure that's part of why the Clinton supporters don't want to see him go.

I was in high school in 2000. I remember it... "Fondly".

As a side note, a friend of mine at work brought up the thought that Trump is playing for time. He's trying to speed run and beat Nixon's time.

Then what's the point of using a map of geographical areas to send the message that the whole country voted for Trump? Square miles don't vote, people do. Unless people living in cities are some sort of a hivemind all voting the same candidate for the same reasons.

Not even close lol. Labour right now is far more of a threat with its ~20% compared to the near 0% of lib dems.


Lib dems won't get above like 12%. Take it from me since I've been a lib dem voter all the way up until the last general election. Lib Dems shot themselves in the foot by their first coalition action being increasing student tuition. I, and a shit ton of lib dem voters, won't just forget the fact that they literally could not keep their most important and simple promise.

No amount of "LEGALISE THE MARIJUANA" will make me forget that fact.

As the third party, the Lib Dems were in the position of being able to promise the moon on a fucking stick for decades, safe in the knowledge that they'd never be called upon to actually deliver on any of their manifesto pledges.

It's extremely easy to get people in a city to vote for you by promising them stuff. It's the same in rural areas, but you have to promise a whole lot more because the people aren't all in one spot. Thus, rural people generally don't end up getting promised a lot because nobody wants to ever deliver on it.

That's my point, the meme tier party probably has more credibility than Labour. They got obliterated in local elections, so I doubt that the national elections are going to be much kinder to them.

Even the BNP used to get on telly by the time I could remember what was forced upon my peeper leviathans but even though they stopped at some point, the party based on oldfag memeing never got on in my lifetime of a couple of decades.
The MRLP were more of a thing when Screaming Lord Sutch was still around, he was pretty much the british version of Vermin Supreme. Never actually planned on winning, just constantly stood for by-elections just to be the meme candidate for people who'd otherwise spoil their ballots.
The SDP folded their party days after they scored less votes than him in a by-election because how the fuck do you recover from that

The BNP have pretty much just vanished in the last decade or so. They started getting some movement going in the tail-end of Blair/Brown but all their support pretty much jumped ship to UKIP.

Yeah the BNP basically won some MEP seats then collapsed in on itself from in fighting, and lost all its council seats the next general election.

The intel was practically useless concerning how ISIS are making bombs out of all sorts of stuff, with ISIS something both the US and Russia both hate. There was no cause for alarm here.

Also the Trump/Russia thing is a total unsubstantiated witch hunt and everyone knows it.

It's true, lizard. Russia didn't hack the election and Trump isn't secretly a Russian agent.

Whether it was a wise idea is debatable of course, but Trump did have the legal authority to do what he did.

Reading further into what exactly they discussed, all it was was counterterrorism stuff about ISIS. The only reason someone would have a problem with Trump talking to Russia about it would be if they thought Russia were evil and sharing anything with them could only end badly.

Countries share intel all the time, if the Russian/Trump scandal didn't exist - this wouldn't even be newsworthy. As long as everything is authorised and above board (or as above board as classified info gets), there's nothing unusual going on.

It's like people want America and Russia to start Cold War 2: Electric Boogaloo
