The House is being reinforced by rampant jerrymandering and it is now done on a scale far beyond anything we have seen in modern history.

The popular vote is generally indicator of how the EC should have went, considering they are supposed to represent their areas.

The Mueller investigation has 16 indictments and 5 guilty please.... so far. Something was going on there.

Stacked SCOTUS is icing on a cake when the same party also runs both other branches. One party rule of all three branches. No checks and balances.
