@clacksee He'll last his full term (or at least until he's incapacitated or dies in office) because the bug in the US system was a feature back in 1789: with no telegraph, electoral processes had to run on a calendar determined far in advance (because travel times across the original colonies were measured in weeks to months). They could have changed it after the 1850s, but saw no reason to do so. And now the electoral lockstep has doomed the United States: it's game over.
