Hey, Democrats, The System Doesn’t Need To Be ’Fixed’ Every Time You Lose An Election
Maybe it's your agenda that's broken.

If you’re under the impression that the system exists merely to facilitate your partisan agenda, it’s not surprising that you also believe it’s “broken†every time things don’t go your way. This is why so many Democrats argue that we should “fix†the Electoral College when they lose a presidential election and “fix†the filibuster when they run the Senate and now “fix†the Supreme Court when they don’t run the Senate.
During the Obama presidency, liberal pundits groused about the supposed crisis posed by a “dysfunctional†Congress. In political media parlance, “dysfunction†can be roughly translated into “Democrats aren’t able to do as they like.†Congress, as you know, was only “broken†when President Obama wasn’t getting his agenda passed, not when his party was imposing a wholly partisan, unprecedented health-care regime on all Americans.
