I need to mention that the reason why 20 million fewer voters voted is. Because of the massive voter suppression that was done prior to the 2024 election. So many people were purged from voters rolls and many polling places were closed it wasn't funny.
While I'm sure that was part of it, a lot of people didn't vote for other reasons as well. Someone I know who you would probably consider "left" didn't vote at all because of Harris supporting Israel (I'm aware trump is worse for Palestinians), and I know a bunch of other people I've spoken to online also didn't vote at all for the same reason.
Plus I suspect a lot of other previous Biden voters didn't vote at all for similar reasons, like possibly all party's are owned by the rich.
Bottom line, a class war is needed to get the rich in check.
Unfortunately, if they didn't vote, they have no right to complain when shit blows up in their face. I don't feel represented by basically any candidate in my home country, Canada, or where I live, the UK. I still participate and vote for the person closest to what I'd like to see. If you don't participate, you don't get to bitch.
Not a mandate, but voter's apathetic acceptance.
Let's get a count of all of the votes that were tossed due to targeted voter registration purges.
pfff... he won twice. if americans would want a real democracy that wouldnt have happened.
Yeah. American here. It’s generally the case that the president gets votes from a minority of the population. Nothing new there. Unfortunately those of us who live here can see that the support for this monster is very real.
How gross it is, considering what was in the line that so many didn’t vote. Also I bet the duck he cheated.
Ah yes there was someone saying 1 in 2 people voted for Trump and yeah nope...
