38. Electoral College

Wed Jul 1, 2026, 01:44 AM

Wednesday

Trump is wrong again.

Many times, he says things that have no basis in scientific or historical fact.

There is a lot of things this country does that other countries do not do.

But Trump does not call for their abolition as long it is in his favor.

One is Electoral College
There are many others.
