MODERATORS
Our democratic process is heavily flawed. The electoral college distorts the relative power votes so that less populated states have more power.
Also, less than half of eligible adults vote, and those that do are disproportionately conservative boomers.
Only about 20% of the population voted for trump. Everyone else either didn't care, didn't think he could win, or didn't want him to win.
The problem is that the non-Trumpers care to little to go to the voting booths.
