This is another politically themed post, please don't be an ass.
Regardless of how you feel about the results of the election, you should be able to recognize that the electoral college system is incredibly flawed. I do not prefer either of the major candidates, but I find it hard to understand how it is that even though Clinton won by two million votes, Trump has won. Where is the logic in that? And though everyone is told you don't have to vote for one of the two major parties, if you don't you will be blamed for one reason or another as you "threw away" your vote. There is little logic in the two party system, and even less in the electoral college. Either way, whoever gets the electoral college vote when they officially vote on January sixth, we are all fucked. (If you're confused by what I mean by the "electoral college vote," you're not alone. Here's a link that should help you out: https://www.archives.gov/federal-register/electoral-college/key-dates.html )
