00:00 this election rigged? No. Popular YouTube community members, the Vlogbrothers, have
00:05 made tons of videos this election cycle explaining what the hell is going on.
00:08 John and Hank Green have explained both candidates tax proposals, as well as both
00:12 candidates health care plans. Or more like one candidate's health care plan
00:16 and the other candidates lack thereof.
00:20 But the Vlogbrothers have an extra big hit this week with this video explaining
00:27 that the system is in fact not rigged. John pretty much talks about how the
00:32 Electoral College works and explains that while George W. Bush lost the
00:36 popular vote, he did technically win the presidency. There was no conspiracy. And
00:41 of course this is all in response to Donald Trump believing that the election
00:44 is rigged against him. People in the comments all seem to agree with John's
00:47 assertion that this is all kind of BS, although lots of people do believe that
00:51 the Democratic primary was rigged. Skip6235 says, "Short answer, no. Long answer, no."
00:59 Alex Hutcherson says, "I'm about halfway convinced that the United States isn't
01:03 even really a democracy." And Jack Lee says, "If Donald wins, the election wasn't
01:08 rigged. When he loses, the election was rigged." Sounds about right. For more trends
