Thats not the point

2019-01-05 19:56:44 UTC  

thats not how you justify removing something like the EC

2019-01-05 19:56:55 UTC  

The point is the EC prevents a democracy

2019-01-05 19:56:58 UTC  

which is true and good

2019-01-05 19:56:59 UTC  

The point of the EC is to prevent someone who is unqualified from becoming elected obviously that failed considering who won in 2016

2019-01-05 19:57:04 UTC  

Not really

2019-01-05 19:57:06 UTC  

Trump is damn qualified

2019-01-05 19:57:19 UTC  

As we've seen through his track record since Jan 2017

2019-01-05 19:57:24 UTC  

he did more than Obama could in 8 years

2019-01-05 19:57:33 UTC  

If we change the way the president is elected, we won't be a pure democracy

2019-01-05 19:57:42 UTC  

A pure democracy is when citizens vote on every law

2019-01-05 19:57:43 UTC  

We'd be a democracy

2019-01-05 19:57:50 UTC  

No'

2019-01-05 19:57:56 UTC  

And we wouldn't be a constitional republic

2019-01-05 19:57:57 UTC  

We would be a federal republic

2019-01-05 19:58:07 UTC  

The whole point is to be a constitutional republic

2019-01-05 19:58:11 UTC  

abolishing the EC stops that

2019-01-05 19:59:02 UTC  

The electors vote for what the population votes for

2019-01-05 19:59:11 UTC  

Lol

2019-01-05 19:59:12 UTC  

Nope

2019-01-05 19:59:14 UTC  

That makes 0 sense

2019-01-05 19:59:14 UTC  

they don't have to

2019-01-05 19:59:19 UTC  

They do

2019-01-05 19:59:20 UTC  

Whats so hard to understand

2019-01-05 19:59:22 UTC  

No they don't

2019-01-05 19:59:25 UTC  

Otherwise, their position is in risk

2019-01-05 19:59:26 UTC  

you don't understand the EC then

2019-01-05 19:59:32 UTC  

Obviously now he’s qualified since he’s the president

2019-01-05 19:59:33 UTC  

the EC can vote for the opposite

2019-01-05 19:59:35 UTC  

or not vote

2019-01-05 19:59:46 UTC  

Chad I would say Obama was unqualified

2019-01-05 19:59:48 UTC  

Why should a bunch of men vote and not the people

2019-01-05 19:59:50 UTC  

since he was an economic illiterate

2019-01-05 19:59:58 UTC  

complete failure of a foreign policy

2019-01-05 20:00:02 UTC  

Because

2019-01-05 20:00:04 UTC  

we are not a democracy

2019-01-05 20:00:07 UTC  

thats the whole point

2019-01-05 20:00:15 UTC  

What

2019-01-05 20:00:17 UTC  

Thats why the constitutional republic exists

2019-01-05 20:00:20 UTC  

And why should certain votes be worth more than others

2019-01-05 20:00:23 UTC  

Economic illiterate ok lol
