Mencken never had much faith in the American people. Of course it's the electors who will choose the moron. The people by 1.7 million votes chose a great president.
"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron." — H. L. Mencken
