IF Metalls strejk kommer att stoppa nya Teslabilar från att tas i trafik. Orsaken är sympatiåtgärden som blockerar Postnords hantering av post till Tesla.Enligt Transportstyrelsen får inte registreringsskyltarna delas ut på annat sätt. Tesla rasar mot myndighetens och statliga Postnords ”oproportionerliga agerande”.
The US is not a pure Democracy, never has been, but referring to it as an “undemocratic country” is just an ignorant slur. “Where a minority can elect a president” - that’s a common misconception among the ignorant. The individual states are sovereign in the US, the individual states select their choice for president based on a majority of votes within the state. It’s precisely that mechanism that protects the US from experiencing Tyranny of the majority the same way Europe does.
No. The US has not popular vote at the federal level, and the popular vote has no meaning within our Constitution. The majority is decided in the electoral college, not the popular vote.
Is it any different than almost every country with a parliamentary system where the PM isn’t elected by the people and their party gets nowhere near the majority of votes

This is simply a fact 😂

Yes, which means the president is often selected by the minority of the voters against the will of the majority.
You know, like in a some dictatorships. In Soviet Union for example the state leader was selected by politburo members.

Think again, slowly.
It’s a statement of fact - multiple presidents in the last 25 years have been elected despite having fewer votes than an opponent.
