This bet is silly, it doesn't matter who wins the presidency, the real winners will be the same regardless. The faceless, unelected, deepstate, i.e. Israel, the CIA, and AIPAC.

There real reason for the electoral college; in the olden days the fed.gov was much smaller and had very little influence on Americans' daily lives. States had much more power, and the fear was the states with a larger population could dominate the federal governmental process. It's not a democracy, and it was never intended to be. It's a representative republic with democratically elected representatives.
