I think a lot of people here are not taking into account the massive amounts of voter disenfranchisement that allowed Trump to win. In one Texas city 100k black voters were struck off the rolls, which would’ve carried Texas for Harris. In total there were almost 4,5 million legitimate voters who were struck from the rolls or whose votes were simply tossed out, mainly in swing states and almost exclusively for people of color. Harris lost by 3 million votes. 80% of those 4,5M votes would have gone to her and the dems.
Exit polls were pointing towards a Dem victory and they might have even carried both houses if not for the massive voter disenfranchisement. This is the election that was blatantly stolen and it really surprises me so few people in the US even know about it, let alone are outraged by it.

Still I’m not sure the people stricken from voter roles and who missed voting from bomb threats would be enough to make up the like 12mil difference.
I don’t think we are ready to elect a woman as a country yet tbh, too bigoted.
I didn’t know that about texas tho, sucks their citizens let them get away with cheating.
If you want to read up on it, this is a great article about just how bad the voter suppression was: https://sdvoice.info/trump-lost-vote-suppression-won-here-are-the-numbers/
I was about to ask for this. Thanks!
