Sucks for anyone named Jamie or Alex. Trump is acting like he won in a landslide, even though he wasn’t even able to scrape together a majority of votes; more people voted against him than for him.
I thought he actually got the majority of voters this time?
He got a plurality of the voting population, not quite over 50% though.
Sadly it’s a mandate until people actually start pushing back.
What makes you think he cares, or that it makes any difference? He's steamrolling ahead regardless and most of people in his way seem much happier to bend their knee than to resist in any meaningful way.
There's good reason we say you can't vote fascism away.
Or Kim!
