Louisgod posted:you're high as poo poo if you don't foresee Trump deferring all the tough decisions to his racist, evil staff while he tries to vacation as much as humanely possible. I hope all the drab meetings, photoshoots, extremely tough decisions and science fairs drain him of all energy so he immediately realizes how incredibly unrewarding and lovely this job is. Yeah exactly. I can see him getting pissy and fighting them on some stuff, but he knows absolutely squat about the inner workings of the office and will likely have a tough time even figuring out how to loving do that All hail King Orange Baby Trump

The Nastier Nate posted:If Obama is gonna stick around, I hope he calls himself a "presidential consultant" and bills the Trump administration $3,000 an hour plus incidentals and travel expenses. Would be loving amazing if the compromise for Trump not knowing what the gently caress is a faint glimmer of understanding that the dude on the way out actually does, and better than any of his own cadre - so he gets kept on as an official attache and Trump just rules remotely from his Howard Hughes-esque bubble atop Trump Tower via mouthpiece Obama for the next four years.

Hot take: Broad City is cool and good, I just didn't realize HFA was so incompetent that their entire campaign strategy was running up the score in that one demo. If you actually watch the show you realize most of the jokes are predicated on the two main characters being self absorbed and smug young liberals. Although I'm willing to concede that it's likely someone along the way said "It wish politics could be like a Broad City episode" and whelp there went another monkey paw.

Ragequit posted:Is there audio of this yet? Absolutely amazing. It was on 60 Minutes last night. Here's the text of it: Lesley Stahl: Now, for months, you were running around saying that the system is rigged, the whole thing was rigged. You tweeted once that the Electoral College is a disaster for democracy. Donald Trump: I do. Lesley Stahl: So do you still think it’s rigged? Donald Trump: Well, I think the electoral ca-- look, I won with the Electoral College. Lesley Stahl: Exactly.But do you think-- Donald Trump: You know, it’s-- Lesley Stahl: --it’s rigged? Donald Trump: Yeah, some of the election locations are. Some of the system is. I hated-- Lesley Stahl: Even though you won you’re saying that-- Donald Trump: I hated-- well, you know, I’m not going to change my mind just because I won. But I would rather see it where you went with simple votes. You know, you get 100 million votes and somebody else gets 90 million votes and you win. There’s a reason for doing this because it brings all the states into play. Electoral College and there’s something very good about that. But this is a different system. But I respect it. I do respect the system.

gradenko_2000 posted:Isn't the National Popular Vote Interstate Interstate Compact just a codified arrangement by which Electors will deliberately go faithless when necessary? The npvic is dumb. States would much rather have their votes go to who their populations represent and lose than contribute to a national decision. Also, it's pretty blatantly a power grab by cities that any underpopulated state would be right to resist.

I also just kinda realized that the theory that trump will gently caress off and disappear for four years and leave everything to his cronies is flawed because the guy is incapable of not occupying a spotlight. He's going to be on every talk show and respond to every media inquiry for 4 years - the upside of which is that maybe someone will tell him something that his cadre won't?

The talk of trump being paralyzed by in fighting and too dumb to make a decision is dangerously uninformed. He is setting this up like he is the CEO of America, Inc. which is no surprise but should be terrifying to anyone that watched the apprentice or has generally worked for a poo poo company. World leaders are going to be streaming his awful show for insight into how he is going to make decisions and we are all going to pay for it. Those championing the notion that we need a CEO at the helm of our republic need to be deprogrammed.

Isn't the whole "The Electoral College was designed to protect rural areas from domination by urban areas" a post facto justification, given that the framers of the Constitution couldn't have known that an urban and rural divide would exist at the time? It's my understanding that the EC was supposed to combine with the Three-Fifths Compromise to prevent/protect against a Northerner President that might speed up the process of Abolition.

Yep, and it really didn't come about until states started nearly universally adopting the winner take all method, it used to be states didn't do winner take all, but had goofy rules per state.

I realize it is purely anecdotal, but as a rural white guy who voted Bernie, then Clinton, part of my argument for her weakness as a candidate was that republicans poisoned the well on her 20 years ago. In my area, her opposition wasn't based on policy and email/corruption was mostly an afterthought. They established they vehemently disliked Clinton before they had even become politically active. The Texan Ag official wasn't the only one dropping the C word, let me tell you. The lesson from the primary should have been that there was a viable candidate that didn't have the kind of baggage Clinton did, appealed to independents and energized young voters. Regardless of her capabilities as a politician, she and her staff snuffed out the very thing they needed most in the election. If nothing else, the next primaries need to be open to independents in every state and special weight needs to be given to the candidate who performs best in swing states.

Can you imagine what would actually happen if a major faithless elector incident actually reversed the election results? No one would accept the legitimacy of the results (though it'd be kind of funny watching Trump argue that he should be president in spite of having won neither the electoral college vote nor the popular vote). Like, the part of me that likes train wrecks would love to see this happen, but the part of me that likes a vaguely functioning democracy...well, all right, that part of me won't be satisfied no matter what. Not that it will happen anyway.
