PR doesn’t make sense for the US. First, you’d need a constitutional amendment to abolish the electoral college. Then, you’d have to pass another constitutional amendment to abolish the senate - and that requires consent of every state which is not going to happen.
Ok, I’ll bite. I was talking about nationally. Yes, states can decide how their electors must vote. The elector, however, can break state law and their decision is final, even if they face charges back home.
There is no way the senate will ever be proportional. And yes, while individual states may implement it, the House of Representatives will never be proportional unless a constitutional amendment awards seats by population directly

Ranked choice is more viable than PR in the US
In other words, the constitution doesn’t make sense for the US
This is such a dumb take. Proportional voting has already been happening in Nebraska and Maine for 30 and 50 years respectively: https://electoralvotemap.com/which-states-split-their-electoral-votes/
