He has no mandate, except playing The HULK. “Me Break Things. Me Angry.”
He’s the leader of the “Revengers.
(76,666,332-74,086,596) / 258,000,000

Please, can we stop with this "half the country", "mandate", "majority" stuff?
A democracy is not defined by the majority of the peeps who bother to turn up.
It's defined by the majority of the eligible voters (250-260)
You would need 125mil at minimum for a majority
Anything less than 125m-130m is a "MINORITY!!!!"
it's a Minority, deciding for the majority

The fear regarding Trump is that he feels his mandate is to support just his side and ignore or attack those who didn't vote for him
Not a real Democracy. Australia has 95% of people vote.
Please.

What's troubling is that all those people voted for a criminal, sexual predator, fascist who will cut the services, social security, medicare, etc for 95% of the people to make the 5% wealthier.
WHY they voted for him is the real issue.
📣that’s how this works📣
Loudly.. while waving his accordion hands..
Harris lost
The cult is strong right now.
A better candidate, a real primary and all the campaign flaws (cheneys, Palestine, arrogance taking progressives for granted) might have changed the outcome.
Lesson: do not move right to gain - the only outcome is you yourself becoming right wing.
Trust me: we know in Europe.
A strong left wing - progressive+ - platform might have cost this election, but would’ve been an investment in the future.
A longer campaign? No - Harris increasingly destroyed her August advantage - one disaster after another.
If we as a nation come out of this in one piece, I hope the corporate media is left far behind, searching for clicks in the ashes of their hyperbole
Despite her blunder of palling around with the Cheneys she still did well.
People treat them as unworthy slobs but a lot of them have very good reasons not to vote
I learnt that in Japan: basically young people never vote - because they believe (and quite reasonably) that it makes absolutely no difference
Cynicism is cancer to a democracy, it stops progress in its tracks and lets wounds fester that could be healed.
Cynicism never solved a goddamn thing.
Who voted for the police state and hyper-aggressive Cold War foreign policy?
And lots of people work hard all day, maybe six days a week, come home crash in from of the tv, eat, sleep, maybe wash, repeat
Expecting the underclass (which is what they are) to summons the energy to engage is asking a lot

it's a horribly shitty system
Millions of votes mis- tabulated and some just vanished.
WHERE IS KAMALA AND BIDEN-SILENCE ON THIS URGENT MATTER. 🔥
MILLIONS OF AMERICANS WANT A RECOUNT.
It’s going to get tighter. GOP still suing over ballot counts in PA- to make the sad clown — less sad I suppose…
"50.07% of us DID NOT vote for Trump"
Trump hates the Constitution...YET...he will take an Oath to protect and defend it...!!
Insanity continues..!!!
Such bullshit 🙄 😒
Trump received 2,442,596 more votes than he received in 2020.
Harris received 7,196,905 fewer votes than Biden in 2020
The turnout for 2024 is 4,754,284 less than 2020.
Why did 4.75 million voters stay home?
Same in France ...
Same in Quebec ...
They cheat , they lie, they murder , they steal , they make threat and we has a weak society allow it.
Notice how the legacy press hasn't really been talking about the fact that even though Trump won, barely, Republicans did REALLY poorly just about everywhere else.
Trump won. The GOP did not because people still hate them.
But that's not the narrative they want.
Unless you're a Fascist.
