I don't even know why we are bothering talking about the popular vote versus electoral college. The GOP is currently under either spell or threat to refuse that the electoral college is even a representation of the will of the people, with no indication that is going to change any time soon. So as long as we have 2 political parties and one of them only believes the will of the people is served by their side winning it's all moot.
GOP in 2016 - You won the popular vote but the EC is what counts when it comes to selecting the president.
GOP in 2020 - It was rigged.
Gee, that whole "THE EC IS WHAT COUNTS!" thing lasted a grand 1 election before it got tossed out on it's arse...what changed? Hmmm....
Actually I take it back, word is that the EC still counts as long as republicans can just send a handful of people to decide that the entire state really meant to vote for the republican candidate.
