Isn’t the House and the Senate already skewed in rural areas favor? Do urban voters really need to be kneecapped all across government?

That’s the whole point of the House-Senate split- that the more populous urban areas get more representation in the House, but proportionately less in the Senate. That said- gerrymandering has fucked that up hardcore. The solution though is to stop gerrymandering, not to give urban areas universal control over the Presidency. If you make the Presidency a popular vote only, then candidates will campaign in every major city and won’t give a fuck what rural areas want.
