How's corny gonna get over 270 ec votes? He's not. This is why 3rd parties are pointless until we get rid of fptp voting and the ec.

Until then vote Dem or we lose democracy.

Or let's pretend he did.

What the fuck is a guy who has never held public office, who is filling his leadership team with more people who have never held public office, going to do when they are stuck with their hands tied with no allies in the presidency?
