The election was stolen with Russian and Muskys help.

Don't enable the abusers narrative.

And this is first across the finish line politics. Want change? Endorse pluralist elections.

Party loyalists hate this message and would rather you just say, "vote blue no matter who". But I'm with you. I'm tired of having to hold my nose in the polling booth every time. End first past the post elections.

End first past the post elections.

Well, Trump intends to end elections period, so in that sense it's a win! /s

Anyone got a source for these numbers?

Sounds like we need to run someone some of those 36% would be willing to vote for. Voting against the other isn't working anymore.

No. The answer was even more centrists and shitting on progressives even harder. Don't worry, it'll definitely work next election, trust me.

Apathy will be the death of America as we knew it

Already is. I've had my funeral for Uncle Sam. Done my mourning. There's nothing left but a homunculus in the vague shape of the flawed dream we once called the USA.

Hitler also got roughly the same third of votes...

Also would go further into pointing out... of those 31.74% that did vote for it... it's not a mandate for things that he didn't run on... or even ran against.

Say trump took a shit ton of credit for promising to never cut social security and medicaid. When his mind changes from what he promised, the "mandate" arguement is even worse.

In a hypothetical world where lets say someone did run, promised a lot of things, and won with 98% of the vote, so that we could say they have a mandate. The mandate still only would apply to the things they actually claimed they were going to do on the campaign trail. If they are doing the opposite of what they promised the mandate is completely bullshit even in that scenerio.

68.1% support Trump 30.84% support Harris 1.06% support 3rd party

FIFY. Please stop pretending that it wasn't a landslide. Please stop pretending that Americans don't support fascism. Please stop pretending that you're not responsible.

Those that didn’t vote or couldn’t because of circumstances really showed him and harris that they are upset
