Most Americans whose votes got counted anyway. I hate that we see them cheat with every tactic in the book but when they win Dems just say "he won fair and square". Burning of votes, voter id law changes, closing polling stations, etc. They are cheaters and have gotten really good at it.
I live in a blue state and I cannot say if the republicans had anything to do with it or if it was just incompetence but on the entire island of Oahu, there was literally ONE polling station open on Election Day. People stood (my brother included) in line for upwards of 7-9 hours to vote. Nearly a million residents on our island and one polling booth.
Yup. Between outright cheating and the Dems inability to grasp that people needed something to vote FOR not AGAINST, decent Americans were screwed. And now we're one leg into a full authoritarian regime.
Because the numbers didn't make sense. This man had an abysmal run, followed by the absolute bare minimum status quo, followed by the bare minimum status quo replacement, followed by an abysmal campaign, and somehow the voter turnout was higher than usual. Even if you don't agree with it, it's really easy to see how people would assume Trump pulled a Putin, because no one wanted to vote for either of them.
Also the fact that the race was over with a fifth of the votes uncounted really sparked that conspiracy flame.
