    *Trump won the popular vote because Kamala was cosigning a genocide and so Democrats in blue states stayed home knowing it wouldn’t affect the election.

    Biden 20 get more votes than Trump 24, reversing an upwards trend in turnout for competitive presidential elections.

      Trump won the popular vote because y’all mfs fell for the propaganda and forgot the trainwreck that he was just 4 years prior. Half of Lemmy was telling people not to vote for Kamala because of this shit, in what was the most obviously stupid decision I’ve seen so-called left-wingers make.

      Brother I’m not even from the US and I was facepalming so fucking hard at this stupid ass reasoning. We’re all paying for the stupid ass decisions US citizens make, constantly.

      How did that work out you fucking morons (not you, unless you were one of them)? This is not a defense of Harris, but it was plain as day that this orange asshole would be an order of magnitude worse on the issue.

        Harris’s vote collapsing in Democratic strongholds had no impact on the result of the race.

        Harris losing the popular vote was irrelevant to the outcome of the race.

        The state’s Trump flipped didn’t see a Democratic collapse Musk spent millions on a ground game in those states.

          Completely agree, which is why I put so much blame on the voters. People continue to be incredibly easy to manipulate, which is what my reply was about. We should have seen a democratic wave, and collapse of republicans. Again, not because the dems were so awesome, but because of the clear, unambiguous horrors of the orange anus.

          Don’t get me wrong, the musks and other powers that be deserve all the blame as well, but those such forces are always what we’re up against. Yet people still absorb the message subconsciously and vote on the feels they were manipulated into having.

          Dems without a doubt deserve a lot of blame too, but we can deal with incompetence over maliciousness.
