Plus the system is rigged to count rural (and thus usually more conservative) votes more, so sane people have to turn out in greater numbers to keep sociopaths out of the white house

Then the people whose votes don't matter electorally decide that the popular vote isn't relevant, so they don't bother.

Hey guys! If Kamala wins the popular vote by >70% but loses the election, there will be riots. There could be a revolution. And she has the numbers to do that if you guys could just vote.

It's adorable you think the Dems have the spine for that sort of thing.

We’re doing what we can for popular vote
