Take a look at the map of campaign stops for the Trump and Harris campaigns. Not exactly covering the broad country. The electoral college sure doesn't seem to be making sure that broad swathes of the country are not ignored. People vote. In a world with a national popular vote it wouldn't be cities deciding elections, it would be people. Every single person would have precisely the same say in the outcome.

What really matters are the policies they enact while in office. Without the electoral college, they could ignore the needs of most of the country as long as they satisfy the coastal cities.

  It seems like with the electoral college, the needs of most of the country are being foresaken for the satisfaction of the coastal cities, if Trumpism is to be believed.

      The entirety of Trumpism is a tirade against the coastal elites.
