I'd like to remind the rest of the world
that the majority of US voters
have voted against Trump
for 3 elections in a row.

Reposted from ❤️‍🔥 A To The Z ❤️‍🔥

Trump has fallen below 50% of the popular vote.

With 152.7M votes counted so far, he leads Harris 49.99%-48.22%.

This was not a landslide or a blowout by any means.

159+M total ballots in 2020.

The closer the count becomes, the more sick I become with those who protested and didn't vote for Kamala.

marktheprophet.bsky.social•101 days ago

I understand the temptation. There were issues with Kamala. Even so, she was sane and a lot more progressive than Trump. Trump won't try to save any chance of a two-state solution, either. He's just gonna let Bibi do his thing. Why else pick Mike Huckabee? It's a sop to the religious right.

marktheprophet.bsky.social•101 days ago

The Muslim voters in Michigan who either stayed home, voted for Trump, or voted third-party are in for a real heartache. They might not have liked Biden's policies on this and other matters, but they're going to like his a lot less.

daknls2006.bsky.social•101 days ago

And when Trump sends the National Guard to arrest them for protesting, they will REALLY wish Kamala was in office.

marktheprophet.bsky.social•101 days ago

Regrettably all too true.

richardlaya.bsky.social•101 days ago

I understand that this is merely symbolical at this stage, but I find it comforting and encouraging. No landslide, no mandate and hopefully a deeper, stronger and more informed resistance this time around. Let’s get to work. 🔥

thatguy01.bsky.social•101 days ago

Semantics that won’t really matter when tens of millions of us lose our health insurance!

jen6172.bsky.social•101 days ago

It was not a landslide. Pushing back on this narrative is important. A swing of 236,898 votes in MI (80,618), PA (126,863) and WI (29,417) would have resulted in the US ushering in the first female president - 271 to 267.

goalie39.bsky.social•102 days ago

Something smells fishy, like in Florida red tide fishy.

gadams.bsky.social•101 days ago

Doesn't matter---they will still endlessly proclaim it was a "landslide" with a "mandate."

wattzson.bsky.social•93 days ago

Unfortunately, this hasn't held true. As of 11/26/24, more people have voted Trump than Harris.

America choose to elect a felon to the most powerful position on Earth. We no longer deserve to be the world leader.

deadheadlawyer.bsky.social•101 days ago

We're still a plantation, but only barely, and only bc of the constitution's structural affirmative action program for conservatives. Electoral college, structure of the Senate, allowance of gerrymandering - and now, courtesy of King Justice Roberts, Executive Immunity.

bluhere.bsky.social•101 days ago

The "blue "dot on nebraska is in the wrong place. It bothers me every time I see it.

klausbusse.de•101 days ago

Anyway, we also see that even the clear and present danger to introduce fashism to the US does not activate about a third of your population, who rather live in a Christo-Fashist state than getting their fat ass off the couch.

How has that ever been even close?

This is a massive failure, no doubt.

innocentbystndr.bsky.social•102 days ago

Feels like that number should be counted in dog years. So tired of that name on ballots.

aspengal.bsky.social•101 days ago

I don't he won. He never really did before. We HAVE to hand count the swing states. I smell a couple of huge rats.

exhaustedbluegirl.bsky.social•100 days ago

When I was 59, 63, and now 67 yrs old. I may not have gone to college, but I know how to research and use common sense.

fpad663.bsky.social•102 days ago

And to become president in two of those elections. Our system is flawed. Not very democratic.

tomegraves.bsky.social•102 days ago

Trump seems to know a lot about rigging elections. 😯 no surprise.

taz1.bsky.social•101 days ago

And yet he's president, why because Biden made a deal with MCConnell for Garland. Biden's administration failed the US. They took an oath to the US and let a coup continue til full take over. This is 100% on Garland, Wray, SS & Biden's administration and DNC. There is no "bipartisan" !!!

calmthoughts.bsky.social•95 days ago

Purges.Hacks of Tremendously connected Machines (STARLINK), & Tabulation Machines with Preloaded Hacks. I guarantee, if all purges, bomb threats, & all I mentioned are added up, Harris DEFINITELY WON in many Swing States,(hacked), & reversed Senate & House Votes would give Democrats Majorities!

blacksheep68.bsky.social•101 days ago

This is not just a coincidence. We lost because THEY committed election fraud.Why do you think he said, on multiple occasions, that he didn't need the votes. He had all the votes he needed? WAKE UP, PEOPLE! THIS IS NOT A DRILL!

seamstress4band.bsky.social•99 days ago

I still couldn't lift my head at anyone from the rest of the world to meet their eyes. I'm mortified.

Me!! So many of us and sadly here we are anyway.

Even when we got rid of him the world sees us as maga - it’s all that the western corporate media covers

david-stone.bsky.social•102 days ago

I'm not a conspiracy theory guy but PA, MI, and NC numbers are a little "weird". I have a feeling all three are being investigated behind the scenes (of course, they always are, but I mean REALLY investigated).

dappleathome.bsky.social•101 days ago

Very interesting letter from a tech expert:

dappleathome.bsky.social•101 days ago

I don’t think so.

imaprivate.bsky.social•102 days ago

We should not feel ashamed to question results.

There’s a VAST difference between investigating inconsistencies and/or potential foreign interference👇— and violently storming the Capitol or promoting fake electors.

tlee1942.bsky.social•101 days ago

There are definitely "funky" things going on in NC...I've also heard that there are inconsistencies in NV. I live in Wis...my absentee ballot was received prior to the election but now...WTF is my (and my daughter's) ballots??? Were our ballots even counted? Swing states need a forensic audit.

smrs333.bsky.social•98 days ago

why is no one talking about the "bullet ballot" anomalies in the 7 swing states. This is a big deal, if true https://substack.com/home/post/p-151721941t

2d6kobolds.bsky.social•101 days ago

Well in that case, congratulations to President Harris! That means that she's the president now, right guys? Guys?

...

Right guys?

mamajkmcc.bsky.social•102 days ago

You have that NE blue elector in the wrong spot

The same 70 +- people voted 3 times for Trump. He only wins when he can convince people to stay home. There are more Democrats than Republicans.

So, my wife is wrong. My vote counts. Good luck convincing her of that. That woman, as much as I love her, has never voted in her entire life.

jazzygurl.bsky.social•101 days ago

clearly that doesn't matter....

I hope you incorporate this space into your show. I’ve made it on with posts from the cesspool site but I’m deleting that account on Monday.

Trump won the popular vote. But you know that.

And people think their vote doesn't count...

lorlolauren.bsky.social•102 days ago

And, we’re supposed to believe Dems just didn’t show up to vote. They called it quicker than 2020 and Biden had a larger margin.

accessamy.bsky.social•102 days ago

schmandate

anneinsantafe.bsky.social•101 days ago

Imagine if even half of those "Democrats who stayed home" had actually voted. I'm sure we wouldn't be staring into the crazyland abyss of most of Trump's announced appointments.

hmdob.bsky.social•101 days ago

Texas wants to turn Blue again, but we are facing gerrymandering, voter suppression (throwing out a million voter registrations), voter apathy (believing your vote does not count), a money disadvantage ( the parties take out my money but don't invest in TX). Our cities are majority Democrat. Help.

walkitoff.bsky.social•102 days ago

Phew.

kristinamcc.bsky.social•101 days ago

It would be interesting to know how massive voter suppression affected Dem turnout in Georgia, Texas, Virginia...

ripleyhend.bsky.social•101 days ago

Ummmm....76 million is greater than just under 74 million. The majority of US voters voted FOR the 🍊💩.

calvinonthebeach.bsky.social•102 days ago

I know I have.

joycemontrose.bsky.social•101 days ago

Many Americans do not know the USA was demoted to flawed democracy status on the Economist Democracy Index in 2010. We never hear the USA described as "the land of the free" anymore for good reason. 😥

jackbulza23.bsky.social•101 days ago

This is extreme cope

jillbert.bsky.social•92 days ago

I really don’t believe it. Every swing state? Really?! No fucking way.

stephaniehickman.bsky.social•101 days ago

Yeah and it doesn’t seem to matter.

tomegraves.bsky.social•102 days ago

So ballots are still being counted ???
So Big Media News called the election because of a feeling ???... you know there is some serious bovine poopery going on. (Sigh)

tlee1942.bsky.social•101 days ago

This isn't over...we know Trump accepted a bribe from Russia to help him steal the election which is election fraud. There are many inconsistencies in swing states that need to (and will be) investigated. There are many of us working on getting a forensic audit and recount. Stay tuned...

jungkarl.bsky.social•101 days ago

But why is it even close ?

pooterheadpharms.bsky.social•101 days ago

Cold comfort.

brunswicke.bsky.social•102 days ago

Well stated. Allow me to add a little perspective.

In the last 25 years, the only presidential candidate to win the popular vote with a smaller margin of victory than Trump’s 2024 win was…Al Gore in 2000.

But, sure, call it a ‘mandate’.

He cheated to win.

bobinette04.bsky.social•102 days ago

Yes, but rather slim majorities. 🤷🏻‍♀️

happilyunhappy.bsky.social•101 days ago

Less than half of adult Americans voted. Trump was elected by what, 23% of us? Hard as it is to believe 72 million adult human brains chose Trump, it's harder to accept the uncaring lack of involvement of over half the electorate. . . Imagine not loving or caring about anyone or anything . . .

blskgarfield.bsky.social•102 days ago

So, there’s hope after all. Looks like people aren’t as naive as they seemed. That’s nice.

leftynews.bsky.social•101 days ago

Thank you for visiting NE OH & lifting our spirit with your inimitable intellect & humor.
To Bible quoting homophobes: the Bible you’re citing to justify anti-LGBTQ bigotry (Leviticus) also demands the death penalty for adulterers aka trump!
Can't be a 1 sentence literalist & ignore the rest.

emily404.bsky.social•100 days ago

I know this is too late, but why did Harris concede so quickly? It was never a blow out for tRump. We have got to begin playing as dirty as they are...principle be damned.

drjjross.bsky.social•101 days ago

Or viewed another way, a mere 20% of the total American population voted for him. Talk about minority rule (about the same percent ruling South Africa under apartheid?)

raedwald.bsky.social•101 days ago

A small majority against. The sad fact is, about half the US voting population has voted for Trump every time. This reflects on US society as a whole.

jacquekc.bsky.social•97 days ago

The rest of the world just sees the president. And everyone is suspect- except black women.

verlaloomisrandall.bsky.social•101 days ago

I got blocked by a pussy in this string because I said that my vote was counted in California. I guess when the Registrar sends you a text stating your vote was counted they lie? Maybe I should have been more specific that my county is done counting.

braggi.bsky.social•102 days ago

That’s less of a margin than what Clinton beat him by in 2016.

sabr24.bsky.social•101 days ago

Once again, Republicans don't win the popular vote.

helpmerhonda.bsky.social•101 days ago

The math: if you add up the votes for 3rd party russland lunatic spoiler fools, almost EXACTLY = the loss margin for Harris. Need to talk more about this.

downtoearthmel.bsky.social•101 days ago

California said …hey wait a minute

jmontell.bsky.social•101 days ago

In fact more Americans DIDN'T VOTE than voted for either candidate.
There are 262 million U.S. citizens over 18 years old.
Less than 160 million voted
