Remove the electoral college and a Republican will almost never become president again. I do no like 4 to 6 states deciding the presidential election remove it and everyone's vote will count the same.
If you remove the electoral college that's exactly what you would have, states with large cities and population centers would determine the election, small states would be inconsequential. The states that determine the election are those that are evenly matched between the 2 parties, many of the other states vote republican or democratic every year.

Exactly, I saw three protesters last night say "it's not fair, Hillary had the popular vote". They don't even know how the procedure works.

They already do. California has 55 electoral votes.
Estimates suggest 5 of those and the 5 House seats are the result of an illegal population, yes they do affect elections and it's even legal. Their population is included when calculating congressional districts. The next census will occur in 2020, if Trump is successful in sending a lot of these illegals home California and other states with high illegal populations will lose electoral votes and House seats. Estimates also suggest those seats would mostly be redistributed to red and purplish states.
As the saying goes elections have consequences and this may may a big one, it's also one of the hidden reasons Democrats are so much in support of illegals.
ha, ha...funny. Let me get this right. B/c CA and NY helped push the popular vote ahead slightly for HRC, libs think they should have the right to over ride a given states preference in the electoral college. Nope, nope, nope
I do not engage in social media like Facebook for many reasons, not the least of which is being exposed to this emotion based sophomoric nonsense.
Regardless, send them this video to help educate them on our constitutional republic. It is put in such a way that even uneducated people can learn from it;
