Brilliant system we've got here. A racist game show host flukes his way into the presidency by losing the popular vote by three million and so he gets to install three Supreme Court justices and they get to un-do the last 50 years of legislation and jurisprudence. Wow, such popular mandate, very democracy.

@memory Don't forget The Other Guy who managed to luck* into the presidency despite losing both the popular vote and the electoral college, and then used 9/11 as an excuse to kill lots of people, roll back a bunch of rights, and also installed two more terrible justices.

* I guess a partisan SCOTUS isn't really "luck", but you know what I mean

@Andres4NY @memory yeah the supreme court gave the election to Bush...
