The Big Picture of Political Unrest & Political Maneuvering

Government is skewed in their favor

Rural America?

Yeah, between the Electoral College and having 2 Senators per State, they have more sway per capita than larger States.

oops, I see Bbee1949 already said the Electoral College part before I did.

did you know that in the usa you can become president without majority of pl voting for you by exploiting the electoral college? electoral college is meant to be a system where your state has more electoral votes if u have a higher population. for some reason though, votes that should have gone to high population states instead got given to some low population states. by exploiting this and focusing on smaller states, you can win majority of electoral votes despite most people not voting for you.

That's another reason why I don't believe Trump won in 2024...I don't believe he could win votes.and electoral college. Not him. No way.

The thing is in his case, a third of voters didn't bother voting, and he just got slightly over half of the votes, so basically just a third of the voters voted for him.

So while he won a slight majority of votes, he did not win a majority of all registered voters.

Thanks for the info! That makes me happier. But, I still think he and Musk did something with all those names and addresses provided by Trumpets at the rallies. I think, but couldn't confirm, that is someone lives 6 months in one state and six months in another, he can vote in both states. They could have pretended a lot of people lived in two states and put them down for votes in two swing states. Which is why Trump said "This is crazy" when he found out it worked.

Well, that's an interesting take on it. One third only...there's hope in that number!

Trump was booed during a national anthem at a FIFA game the other day.
