By design. From the Fox News propaganda stream, to ridiculously gerrymandered districts, to the incredibly undemocratic senate, to the electoral college, the entire US political system is broken. The republican presidential nominee has only won the national popular vote once in the last 20 years, yet they've been in power for over half that time. It's a tyranny of the minority in America, and republicans have been doing everything they can to make it stay that way
