the american people chose change. they were given the option between someone who acknowledges the country is fucked up and has radical plans to change it, and someone who has no platform other than keeping things the same. nobody wants things to stay the same rn.
Can’t even blame this on the electoral college, lmao.
For weeks after the election Bluesky libs were so annoyed, so huffy, and so tedious.
A normal rando who doesn’t follow politics 24/7 would say “Trump won the majority of the popular vote.”
Libs would swarm on them. They would correct them over-and-over again: “I’ll have you know that Trump did not get a majority of the popular vote. He got ~1.5% more than Kamala but less than 50%.”
The number bounced around a little I think the final number was Trump got 49.8%. Oh my god! Definitely not anywhere close to 50%!
I know libs obsess over their two party system, but surely they realise that 3rd parties would account for why the two major parties combined results don’t add up to 100%
It will always be funny to me how the liberals go on and on and on about voting yet they get so mad if a non-republican doesn’t vote for their candidates. It’s like it would destroy the entire democratic party if they moved one millimeter to the left.

President I Didn’t Vote actually won by like 7%, as they do every election.
I Didn’t Vote lost 2020, but that was their first loss since 1908
Even in 2020, I Didn’t Vote won by almost 3 million votes
“I’ll take whoever” isn’t exactly an emphatic rejection
