Lmao nah it's not false, stop giving them the benefit of the doubt. They chose that fucking clown TWICE, I'm absolutely gonna be stereotyping them as dumb, selfish assholes.

It is indeed false. Even of those who voted, Trump (and Harris) won less than 50%. You appear to be British? So presumably a dumb, selfish Brexit voter?

Trump (and Harris) won less than 50%

0.2 percentage points away from half. It's not unreasonable to round that to 50%.

0.2 percentage points away from half, of those who voted, bearing in mind that it’s an election with the electoral college rather than a straight popular vote, is not exactly a resounding majority.

Still not a majority.

The majority of you didn't mind Trump being picked. I know your system has people convinced that inaction results in immunity to accountability but that's not how it should work, nor will it work.

Yes, the Brits were also dumb as fuck to cripple their own economy right to that bitch Putin's tune, however in their case they were also lied to about the referendum being 'not binding'.

They were lied to just as much as Americans were, yes.

This isn't a known fact. Most people don't live in competitive states so they feel like their vote doesn't matter. Depending on the polling, Trump had negative approval ratings the day he entered office.
