He won the presidency with the assistance of gerrymandering, voter suppression, the assistance from Russia. The simple concept of swinging the results of just one state out of fifty can change the outcome of the electoral college numbers. Yes, Trump won by the existing rules but the rules are easily bent to change the outcome of the election. I think it is fair to say that massive amounts of money are spent to change the outcome by both democrats and republicans - the republicans have more money so they keep winning. Having the most money is not democracy.
