Elizabeth Warren would be horrible for America. She proves it every time she opens her mouth to speak.
She is now saying that if she wins the presidency, she will destroy the Electoral College. She apparently thinks that she knows better than over 200 years of American history and tradition.
The Washington Free Beacon reports:
Warren Plans to End Electoral College by 2024
Presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) said she plans to be the last person elected president by the Electoral College.
“I want to get rid of it,” Warren said during an Iowa campaign event on Sunday. “So here’s my goal: my goal is to get elected and then to be the last American president elected by the Electoral College. I want the second term to be that I got elected by direct vote.”
“I just think this is how a democracy should work,” Warren said. “Call me old-fashioned, but I think the person who gets the most votes should win.”
A majority of the Democratic presidential candidates have expressed support for abolishing the Electoral College, including Mayor Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.). Most paths to abolition would require a constitutional amendment, although some states have tried to circumvent the Electoral College through “national popular vote” agreements pledging their votes to the candidate with the highest nationwide vote total.

Check out some of the replies to Warren’s tweet:
So you plan to devolve a representative republic into a more direct democracy, erasing centuries of ideological and civic progress?
Yeah sounds like something you'd attempt.

I spurn this with extreme contempt.
IMO this tweet should end you as a candidate; your intention is not to uphold our government but to subvert it
The Electoral College is brilliant. It spreads power to MORE Americans rather than further concentrating it among big city elites.

Good thing it isn’t up to you. God Bless our Founding Fathers for their wisdom and foresight to prevent America from becoming a mob-rule Democracy.

You’re living in a dream world if you think the electoral college is going anywhere.
Regardless of whether you approve of it or not, you will never in a million years get state legislatures or federal legislators to vote in the numbers necessary to change it.
Literally never.

Warren is currently sliding in the polls.
Is there any wonder why?
