The voting in the US is literally predetermined during redistricting and as real as the outcome of Wrestlemania so not sure what you're talking about

You can't redistrict the electoral college.

You sort of can by adding new states, which has been done before, splitting existing states into 2 to get more senators and electoral college votes. It is harder to keep this hidden though.

Districts still matter when it comes to voter suppression measures. Less polling stations, requiring voters vote only in their district, purging voters, etc.

Trump won the popular vote, all excuses are off this time.
