Well this was the reason for the empowerment of the states when the US was first formed. Presidential powers are limited.Seriously, let's just split this country up. It's way too big anyways.
Its moments like this where this grand experiment that is the United States of America 50 states(countries really) working together under one unified government will work. I believe it can but this moment is not encouraging.
I propose the presidency should reflect the votes. Win by more than 10% and it's all yours. Anything less and there is a split... Let's say it's as close as yesterday's vote. That means you each get a 2-year term.Which is why the electoral college is BS. Something must be done about it.The crazy thing is that Trump got less votes than Romney and McCain and still won.
Or more realistically each candidate gets to choose cabinet members or congressional representatives based on the percentage of the popular vote they received.
