I'm sure King George said the same thing. I'll let anyone who was part of the 11th-27th amendments know that they should have left the country.

Our current system isn't exactly what they put in place. They designed a system where states legislatures either picked smart people or let some citizens vote for smart people to then pick the president.

It would take winning every single vote in the 10 states with the highest total voters in 2016 in order to win the presidency (btw 7 of those 10 went Trump). The reality is votes from every single state would matter.
