    It's true: if the Constitution specified a different way of electing presidents, the current Constitutional rule would not be constitutional.https://twitter.com/allinwithchris/status/1167590061719937027 …

        touchdowns are a bad analogy for the electoral college. the current system is more like if you won games by gaining yardage but the actual points didnt matter.

        This should be labeled "parody".

        Chris Hayes has said a lot of dumb things, but this might be the dumbest of them all. That's what 'constitutional' means, Chris.

        Honestly read that four times and I’m still amazed a “news” anchor said this on live television as if it were some big revelation.

        Replying to @baseballcrank

        Oh hey look, @baseballcrank is giving the least charitable interpretation of @chrislhayes! The point is obviously that the electoral college system *conflicts* with the democratic principles of the rest of the Constitution, rather than flowing naturally from those principles.

        Replying to @ZombieBillBarr @baseballcrank @chrislhayes

        That's begging the question 😂 Madison wasn't a small-d democratic majoritarian. I don't think anyone in the Constitutional Convention was. The Constitution was written with the idea of CHECKING the TYRANNY of the Majority in mind, not affirming it as a principle.

        Whining about the electoral college won't make a difference- the Constitution is clear. We are "supposed" to live by it. Libs on the Court have already took us away from it, but this rule is solid!!! Leave it alone!!!!
