Please don’t hate Americans and the USA. Direct your disgust at the dolt-in-chief and those who elected/support him. Most Americans are kicking themselves for not doing more to keep him out of any position of leadership.

    Numbers may provide some perspective.

    There are 245M registered voters and 347M US citizens. Trump won 77M votes.

    That’s only 31% of registered voters, and 22% of the nation.

      And this time around, anyone who failed to vote made a conscious decision to allow this. Those 69% of registered voters are not victims here.

      So am I supposed to be mad at the 77 million voters or the 77 million voters plus the (at least) 91 million people who didn’t vote against him?

        77+91 for me. Couldn’t even be bothered to do the bare minimum to stop this. So I hate most of my fellow Americans. Makes meeting new people and being in public generally miserable.

        You can interpret that data any way you’d like.

        Personally, I felt some reassurance learning that 1 in 5 people voted for Trump after initially seeing it as every other person.
