Our election process sucks, but it's not because of faithless electors. The vast majority of times it was because the candidate died before the election.
Since 1900, there have been only 16 faithless electors who defected for individual reasons

Oh you got added to the top-level security clearance discord group as well?
She
Well that was an unexpected pronoun.
Rich people? I don't think I follow what's in common with all those people you mentioned.
Some interesting facts about excel I learned the hard way.
- It only supports about a million or so rows
- It completely screws up numbers if the column is a number and the number is over 15 digits long.
Not really related to what you said, but I'm still sore about the bad data import that caused me days of work to clean up.
The problem with your analogy is the third choice wasn't don't get shot. We had three choices.
- Choose to get shot in the arm with a .22
- Choose to get shot in the arm with a .50
- Do nothing and get shot in the arm with a .50
This wasn't the trolley car problem. Simple game theory can be applied.
I agree the Dems need to do better but Trump is objectively worse in every way. Forget his political views, he's just a garbage human being. He's everything that's bad about humanity, or at least of capitalism, and it saddens me that 60% of my fellow Americans are just cool with that.
And Trump wants to deport 20 million people, yea, exactly the same.
Get out and talk to people. It's 100% believable he won the popular vote, let alone the election.
I just don't buy it. I've worked at plenty of companies and I never saw it work that way. Sure, I've seen "we have to interview more candidates" or "we need to write our job applications to be more inclusive", but I never saw "we need to hire the lessor candidate because they're x".
In my experience when someone is whining that they lost a possible job to a "DEI hire", they're usually just butthurt that someone was better than them.
I'd love to hear a coherent reason backed by facts and evidence about why DEI is bad?
Whenever someone tells me they don't like DEI and I ask why, it's always some unhinged spiel about women and immigrants taking their jobs.
Funny enough the only people who are going to feel it are the low level retail managers who are going to get yelled at for not meeting their YoY, and then not a peep the next day when they do double the sales

...yea that sucks. Like I said, our election system sucks. All I pointed out is your assertion that electors are getting new cars in order to vote against the wishes of their state isn't really a thing.
