    people? Trump won the popular vote. Most voters wanted him

      America is a fascist country already. The fascist plurality turned out in droves to support a guy who was saying what they believed.

      Liberals watched this groundswell of fascist support begin to crest and turned to Dick fucking Cheney to bail them out. And then when they lost, 76M to 73M, in a contest of New Fascism versus Fascism Classic, their response was to… blame Muslims, Latinos, and Trans People.

      Conservatives, meanwhile, decided to use their big electoral win to checks notes normalize pedophilia.

      Fucking hell, this country sucks.

      He had less than 50% of votes. Saying “most voters wanted him” is demonstrably incorrect.

        Donald Trump

        76,856,362 votes (49.9%)

        Kamala Harris

        74,320,684 votes (48.3%)

        Most voters wanted him.

        This is not an endorsement of trump, rather, a condemnation of the US voting public.

        if you want to have an argument about the definition of pluralaity and majority or whatever, I suggest

          Most would be greater than 50% by definition

          But thanks for revealing what you are, blocked

            Why exactly are you trying to win a war of semantics?

            What definition are you working from for “most”, because you seem to be meaning it in a far more semantically strict way than I have seen before
