this thread is full of people placing blame on everyone except the people who actually voted for trump. face the facts: the democrats could have put caucasian jesus on the ticket and trump would still have won.

      the first mistake: they tried to run against a fascist bigot (america loves voting for these)

      the second mistake: something so minor and inconsequential that it would gained .001% more votes (lefties will debate what this was forever)

        It’s actually closer to 16% and I would definitely not call it inconsequential given that Trump won this election with several million votes less than he got in 2020 when he lost.
