Trump only won thanks to the electoral college, not because of democracy.

Everyone who's candidate loses says this every single election, regardless of party. And the electoral college was a deliberate concession to the sparsely populated states where all the food is grown, as is the Senate. Because America is a constitutional republic, not a direct democracy. I don't know if this is still taught in school but I distinctly remember learning it.

“Where all the food is grown” is a very interesting euphemism, I hadn’t heard that one before.
