The competence of the voters to understand local people and local matters, and for the people they deem to be competent by popular vote to bring these concerns to higher levels of government, without requiring every single voter to understand every single part of the large machine that is our government.

It's not just losing--as in saving face--that he fears. It's prosecution and the likelihood of prison sentences as well as insurmountable debt (he does not have the money) for which payment is due as early as next year. Any other president can suffer the loss of re-election without fearing those two things, but not #45. Which makes him more than desperate and therefore far more dangerous. No president in U.S. history has ever had so much to lose, and with tRump's mental health challenges and the power of the Presidency, he is a great danger to all of us and to the world.

He is absolutely correct BUT, this is the one thing Bill Maher harps on that truly leads me to believe he is really out of touch with the "common" of us. The thing that he tends to not speak on is that internal health is a direct product of one's socioeconomic circumstance. Maybe, he's truly THAT unaware, here are things: Not everyone is versed accurately in eating healthy, much less able to afford to do so. Produce is expensive, organic even more so. The fact that there is so much crap in what is traditionally known to be "good for us food"... that there's a differentiation labelled "organic" for our food is also a factor to consider. Maybe, just maybe there's some link to the obesity, and ill health (both physically & mentally) to all the crap in those things not organic that many of us have little other choice but to consume. Oh and let's also not forget a large portion of the US populace has no access to healthcare. Genetics also play a part.

@daemn42

Disclaimer: This is an explanation, not an endorsement for or against. We have never been a true democracy in that all the eligible electorate can vote on an issue at the national level. We've always been a representative government (electing only the representatives to govern for us), but the founders recognized that we needed a mix of state based and population based representatives, which is why every state gets 2 Senators to represent the state's interests as a whole, and House gets a number of representatives in proportion to their states's population. The electoral college is meant to meld these two together which is why there are the same number of electors as there are total state representatives, and electors must be chosen from the public and cannot themselves be office holders to attempt to avoid corruption and established party-line voting. The most obvious problem with the modern version of the electoral college is that because most states have fallen reliably into firmly red or blue category, the presidential elections fight over about 10 so called swing states and ignore all the rest. The problem with abolishing the electoral college and letting only the national popular vote determine the presidential ticket is that more than half of our total population resides in about 10 states (CA, TX, FL, NY, PA, IL, OH, GA, NC, MI), so most presidential campaign promises would target those states, ignoring all the rest. If you live in Maine or Wyoming or Alaska you might as well not exist. Now to add some context to what the founders were thinking when they created this system. 1. They really didn't trust "the masses" as a whole to make informed decisions. 2. National scale elections that gathered votes from all eligible voters in a short period of time was simply not viable at that time, and some would argue perhaps not even now. Early on some of the states even missed the deadline for getting their electors votes in. The constitution *only* specifies that the states choose a set of electors from the public, and how many there are. It doesn't tell the states how to choose them. Many states initially had their own state legislatures choose the electors, and only over time did they move to allowing them to be chosen by popular vote of the people. 3. They originally envisioned that the electors would all be free agents chosen by the people and then could vote for president and vice president responsibly. The creation of the limited party system as we know it, caused this to break down, and eventually the states all bound the electors choice to the popular vote. I wouldn't be surprised if we see this binding rule challenged in the courts following the 2020 election. Imagine if the new majority minority population flips the state popular vote from red to blue in a traditionally red state (say TX or AZ), and then some electors choose to not vote for the blue candidate. It's 2020, so why not. 4. Slavery both in the north and south and the 3/5ths compromise.. It's complicated and despicable of course, but the short of it is that southern states gained about 1/3rd more representative power in congress relative to the northern states and the same proportion more electors by counting their slaves as 3/5ths of a person, without actually allowing them to vote. This compromise baked into the wording of the Constitution (Article 1, Section 2, Clause 3) by the founders, makes them *all* responsible.
