A simple thought experiment to explain the process behind the electoral college
You and two friends decide to go out to eat for lunch, only one of you brought a card so you all agree to venmo the one who brought it after you eat as none of you brought any cash either.
You want to get some pizza, and your two friends want to eat human shit sandwiches, you decide to put it to a democratic vote because that’s obviously the most fair right?
You obviously lose and you have to eat the shit sandwich, sucks doesn’t it?
How could this have been avoided?
Simple, you make your vote worth 2, this forces an even tie and forces the shit sandwich twins (you should probably stop hanging out with them btw) to compromise, you all end up agreeing on burgers and you eat in relative peace
Now apply this logic to the electoral college, and you understand why the Montana Wheat farmer or the Wyoming cattle rancher’s state gets to have as much of a say as California or New York

Get the Shit Sandwich Theory mug.The thing you make when some idiot is blowing up your phone and you happen to be in bed or on the couch and don't want to continue to be bothered but don't feel like messing with the phone to turn the ringer, off or decline the call, so you stuff it under the mattress or between cushions.
That was you calling last night? I thought it was that bitch Jill again about the ten dollars I owe her so I put you in a phone sandwich.

Get the phone sandwich mug.A sandwich you would eat growing up just after getting out of the pool which consisted of white bread, ham/turkey/ or bolognese with American cheddar and the last ingredient is what makes it a pool sandwich which is chips crushed on top
This has been a great day at the pool the only thing that could make this better is a pool sandwich.
