Even that term "will of the people" is a kind of assault on rationality.
It was a vote at one time, once, 4 years ago, with a 2% victory.
The "will of the people" excludes all desires and agency from 15m+ people, who did not want this, in a civilised society subsuming those people to be "wrong" or to be ignored is a recipe for some deeply unpleasant and authoritarian thinking.
Also, 17 million people elected Hitler in 1933 in Germany, that did not make it "right". Dangerous times.
