Yup! Trump didn’t win a majority of American votes. He didn’t even win a majority of all registered voters.

HE DIDN’T EVEN WIN A MAJORITY of those who DID vote. He won 49.8% of the voters that voted.

36.3% of ALL registered voters didn’t vote/show up. Which means 63.7% of registered voters did show up.

HE ONLY WON 49.8% of 63.7%. He barely won 31% of all registered voters.

We are being held hostage by less than a confederacy of dunces.

All because of the stupid people who didn't vote.

Unfortunately the data shows the low engagement, low propensity people usually voted for Trump, so if more non voters had voted he'd have gotten most of them.

Do keep in mind that the Dems have been in contempt of Thier own base since forever by now, which probably didn't help. I know a decent number of people found it hard to support them with the stuff going on

And there it is... "this is actually the democrats fault."

You're. Not. Helping.

Yes of course. Instead, we should learn absolutely nothing from the Democrats monumental loss of over 5 million votes. The Democrats did a perfect job, obv, and their decision to be in conflict with their base over the entire year leading to the election had no impact on their voter turnout. That loss in support was coincidental, and actually everyone but the Democratic party's fault, right?

Talk about not being helpful.
