2/3 voting age Americans did not vote for this. That's a fact.

2/3 of Americans were ok with it though :(

[–] roofuskit@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

No, more like half of those 2/3rds are going to bitch about all this and vot the same way (or continue to not vote) in the next election.

A large part of voting age Americans didn't care enough either way.

I hope they all suffer for it. I hope they cry.

Is this horseshoe theory? lol

This is "angry people can become malicious no matter what they believe in"-theory.

You suckers are fighting over what didn't happen. That was a cracked election counter. Listen to the inuguration at 53m. Candidly admits. This is theft amd nothing less. Everything is just a story of bullshit story by the CIA that in the same way it flings everywhere is it tries to flip their elections to purchased pigs.

They should have voted to prevent this, but only half of them did. They other half lived through the first Trump admin and decided that it was not worth a few minutes of their time to prevent it. They didn't have to cross an ocean or fight a war... they needed to visit a website to get registered and the mail a form (or stand in line for a while) to vote, and they didn't.

In other words, only 1/3 of Americans voted against this.

Musk cracked the counters. Trump candidly admited to exactly that about 53m into one of his "inauguration" speels.

Voter turnout was 64% which means 36% of Americans didn't give enough of a shit to vote. Combine that with those who did vote for Trump and yeah, more than 2/3rds of Americans may as well have voted for it

Edit: the distinction may not matter to you but it does to the countries your country is fucking over
