If Presidents are elected without the majority of Americans' votes, and elected by the state of California, as they would with the popular vote, something is seriously broken. Who is attacking democratic norms again? It certainly isn't Trump. It's the (still) sore losers.
Hillary won the popular vote nationwide by 2,864,903 votes.

To put this in perspective, she won California with 7,362,490 votes to Trump’s 3,916,209, a victory margin of 3,446,281.

Which means that in the other 49 states she ran a net-negative vote-total.
At least in the case of the 2016 presidential election, if the president was to be chosen by popular vote, then we’re essentially just letting California choose the president.
Monkeying with the system for Democrats' short-term gain could easily have long-term consequences.
