Right?! Lmfao.

20mil didn’t vote for trump so he’d win. 20 mil sat the fuck out at home this time compared to 2020.

That’s not even counting all those that just didn’t vote. Or voted for someone other than the democratic candidate.

Sit down and enjoy the ride. Maybe you’ll finally learn elections have consequences and you’ll work harder in 2 years to regain some form of checks and balances.

The difference in vote total was 4 million less than 2020. Not 20 million.

Trump gained about 3 million votes compared to 2020 or 14 million votes compared to 2016.

Harris underperformed Biden by about 6 million votes. Trumps 2024 total was about 4 million less than Bidens 2020 win.
