That’s why the Electoral College exists

If people are voting for Trump then they will put their votes towards a better alternative

Ironically Hillary Clinton had 3 million more votes than Trump. Without electoral college it would have been a Hillary Presidency.

We've had 6 presidential elections in the 21st century. The Republican candidate won the popular vote one out of those 6 times. Yet we've had 3 Republican Presidential terms resulting from those elections.

Yes, it doesn’t work as intended but political parties weren’t intended either

I think it works as intended by those who put it in place.

A lot of things brought in were done so because they didn’t know how to exploit it
