    Technically he didn’t. He’s in office because there is no support for the opposition. It’s the same shit Putin used to do to stay in power: make his opponents seem as unlikable as possible.

        The USA has 340.1 Million People.

        77,302,580 voted for Trump.

        75,017,613 voted for Harris (if I recall about 6 million less than Biden in 2020).

        That means 187,779,807-ish people are some combination of not eligible or don’t give a fuck.
