...........60 goddamn percent of the country either voted for Trump, or didn't vote at all, meaning they voted for Trump. Explain to me how she barely lost.

    That's not even true. Less than 50% of the people who voted, voted for Trump.

    He didn't do much better than 2020 when he lost. The U.S. population increased by 2.5% from 2020 to 2024.

    Numerically with the population growing by the 2.5% we saw a 4.5% drop in voting in 2024.

    Reasons are all speculation.
