No. What you just mentioned is why you have senators & house representatives, the electoral college is just a scam.Lol you clearly don't understand the power of the executive branch and the impact of federal laws and regulations over state governments. Senators and the House only do so much in terms of voting on behalf of their constituents, but there is a gazillion more issues that the president himself Must act on; that won't be effectively represented by ones senator or house of representative, and this forces candidates to campaign on a state by state basis. Why do you think trump won? Clinton campaigned in only big cities and already democratic strongholds, while trump went to middle America, small towns, etc... places which have different issues than others
Muh constitution is purfect hur durr.That doesn't change the fact that America is the greatest country in the world with the greatest democracy ever
I know it's in the constitution but that doesn't change the fact that he was elected by the minority.
Obviously he was democratically elected. That's been in our constitution for a while lolhttp://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/12/04/supreme-court-permits-full-enforcement-trump-travel-ban.html
Well... that took a while.
Was he really democratically elected though? He got way less votes than Hillary, Donald Trump is a president of the minority not the majority.
Also look up Felix Sater & Tevfik Arif.
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/12/04/supreme-court-permits-full-enforcement-trump-travel-ban.htmlwell that just made all of the other justices who blocked the order look like fools
Well... that took a while.
He obviously should be held liable for lying to the FBI about talking to Russia. But what's sad is they spent since May and could only charge him with lying about that... was expecting a bit more given the intensity of the investigation. Flynn is a good guy otherwise, he has a decorated career and has definitely given a lot to this country, so it's sad when his career ends like thisWe just passed a huge tax reform bill in the Senate, no longer will we have the highest corporate tax rates in the industrialized world, ayeThoughts on Flynn?
Trump’s PR team having another bad dayNo one cares besides the liberal media lol
I meant OCS as in the academies for each branch, https://www.forbes.com/pictures/mkl45egjff/7-united-states-military-academy-usma-at-west-point/Naval, army and Air Force officers out of OCS in the states make $70,000+ per year, not including everything else, they make way more than average graduates out of college
I hardly expect a second lieutenant to make 70k a year
