These tweets are from 2012 , when some sources showed Romney winning the popular vote he lost by 5 million in reality . I ' m tired of this hypocrisy from Trump and his supporters . All of a sudden , they support the Electoral College , and casually dismiss any criticism against it . But that ' s only based on the assumption that the Electoral College actually favored Trump . People would vote differently without it in place . We have no idea how the votes would fall if turnout wasn ' t so suppressed . We need to get rid of this antiquated system . The vast majority of Americans agree with me . Before it apparently benefited him , Trump agreed with me , too . <| sep |> I waited long enough for it to go out of stock . Success ! ?
