Thanks , I can't listen to him ramble. My hand uncontrollably goes on my forehead and I get embarrassed that almost half of Americans voted for this fucker.

    ~22% of the population voted for him. Yeah, that's still too much, but it isn't anywhere close to a majority

    277 million Americans were 18 or older in 2024. 77 million voted for Trump. That's ~27%.

    Yes I know. And the ~30% who apparently stayed home voted for him, too, if those figures aren't a complete fabrication.

    They didn't vote for him, but they did unintentionally help him win.

    Nah. They may not have participated in the poll, but they did vote for it by abstaining.
