If you gonna spout shit off then not back it up, just take a step back and don't spout. I'm not the shutlib defending dogshit Democrats.

You come to a politics forum, disagree with some one on a political matter, then get pissed when people ask for the receipts?

Two points worth restating: Trump wasn't not a popular candidate in 2024.

That can be backed up with an enormous amount of evidence.

Second point: The only candidates less popular with voters were Biden, and then Harris.

That's the two points being made. You can disagree with them but then the onus is on you to show why it's not the case.
