Can someone explain to me why exactly we have an electoral college instead of just going by popular vote?

Because if we went by popular vote Trump would've lost.

#TimeTravelTrump

The Electoral College model helps to protect against the kind of kikery that we were seeing that would have handed Clinton the election otherwise.

Because letting commiefornia and jew york dictate shit for everyone is fucked up

The system is flawed, could use some reforms, but allowing popular vote was never an intention of the founding fathers for fear of an ignorant voting base electing their freedom away.

Simple: city-dwellers are lesser people. They are doomed to liberalism because they are all pathetic shits who don't know the simple freedom land to move around on and collect your thoughts brings. As a result they constantly strive to prove themselves without any hope of ever doing so since they lack any concept of what worth is. In turn they are surrounded by people suffering the same affliction, the only way they have to exist without crippling depression is to assume every other pathetic waste of humanity is great just like they must be.
If cities dictated the policies of the world Humanity would be fucked, without direction and without hope. There is no redemption for them.

So that people that aren't in cities can influence the direction of the country.

Protecting against metropolitan bulks I believe.

Trump truly went Guns of the Patriots on these guys. First in the primaries by turning the mechanism established post-Ron Paul against them and then the electoral college.

Because some states think its okay for people to vote without IDs. Meaning that you can just drive busses full of niggers to each voting booth and have the dems win every single election. In short its to stop voter fraud.

Just look at this election. So much fraud, so many destroyed Trump mailing votes by dems. And Trump still won.
