We already have a system where minority rules. Trump barely won the popular vote and only because they stopped millions of people from voting. The majority of the country hates his policies.

They no longer have to worry about answering to voters. It's actually rigged now. 2026 is the last chance, Dems lose that election and the last hope is gone and we will not vote ourselves out of this fascism.
