If you want things to change, you can’t just gripe about the electoral college every 4 years at election time. Get your state to support the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. Go to https://www.nationalpopularvote.com/ click on your state and send a message to your law makers. Tell them to introduce the bill and support it in your state.
It doesn’t have to change the results of all of them. Just prevent a guy like the criminal in office from getting elected.
