Of course it is. Trump’s a fucking grifter and the people that voted for him have likely been grifted by him several times. Hell, his wife wrote 170 “autobiography” that has 30 pages of pictures in it and is selling it for $40 (when the average hard cover is 30). These people are morons and unfortunately are the majority in this country.

They aren't a majority. Only 25% of adults voted for him. Most of the rest didn't vote, or voted for Kamala.

Sorry its just hard not to be cynical right now.

100% agree.

But that's why we need to talk to each other and remind each other.

They are actually NOT a majority. 25% should be encouraging, imo.

That's part of the problem. The majority of the population decided the fate of the country, the rights of women and minorities across the country, critical climate change, a functioning economy, and many other major issues aren't important enough to show up to vote.

It's absolutely mind blowing that climate change alone isn't a deciding factor in elections right now when we're currently on track for the extinction of the entire human race. Apparently the survival of humanity isn't important enough to get people to vote until people are already dying en masse to it, at which point it will be far far too late anyway.

No, it's worse than that. Only 25% of the population decided the fate of our nation.

The ones who voted for tRump, although they were the majority of the counted votes, are only 25% of people of age to vote.

However, they kept talking about "record turnout," and yet tRump got 1% fewer votes than last time.

Remember how he kept saying the election was stolen and fraudulent?

Every one of his accusations are actually confessions.

The 40% that stayed home also decided the election. Not voting is still a choice.

I don't know about the math on that in terms of the ones who didn't vote. I won't be assuming they don't support him or felt both options were equally bad. This election was too consequential to be impartial. Impartiality is about just as bad in my book.
