Get off the water ! !<| sep |> That doesn ' t make Trump not a total hypocrite . The system is completely broken and was invented in the first place for at best outdated and at worst blatantly racist reasons . That is why people are against it , on both sides of the political spectrum . The reason people are talking about it right now is that this complete trainwreck of a democratic process just actually happened , it ' s not a hypothetical anymore it has happened twice in the last 3 presidencies . And it will continue to be abused by one side or the other until it is fixed . The thing is , it will be almost impossible for the system to be abused by the democrats because it is rigged in favor of the republican leaning states . So , are you for the system because it works or because it works for you ?
