If the Electoral College is a product of the democratic process (one that was widely accepted until recently), the democratic process is the one thing that can undo it. So Democrats should try to change it, but there's a strong likelihood they'll fail 4/

So what happens if we can't change the Electoral College? Does that mean every single election the Republicans win with the EC but not the popular vote for, say, the next 20 years will be considered illegitimate? How exactly would our democracy survive that? 5/

It's interesting how this new "movement" from prominent journalists to consider presidents who lose the popular vote as illegitimate started only after losing in 2016 and potentially losing again in 2020. Strange how their principles directly align with their electoral aims 6/
