A problem is that with our system of government, if you have .001% majority in all three branches the other 49.9999% get absolutely no say in anything.
Part of it is that many many people did not vote, after that it’s really a winner take all system. If you can get a 1 person majority in both houses and the president the minority party with 49% representatives gets zero say in anything.
It’s what less that 30% of the population wanted.

The problem in the US is how the representation is assigned, is it not?

It is what it is. Nobody here would be complaining if dems had the same .001% majority.
Because that would never happen, left or center left leaning people are the majority
