The current Electoral College is anything but fair (“While not perfect, Electoral College is fair”).
Since 2000, once with the help of the Supreme Court, we have elected two presidents who did not win the popular vote: George W. Bush in 2000 and Donald Trump in 2016.
Disregarding the will of the majority of the voters isn’t fair. If Trump does manage to win the 2024 election, my bet is he’ll be a minority president again.
