    He had less than 50% of votes. Saying “most voters wanted him” is demonstrably incorrect.

      Donald Trump

      76,856,362 votes (49.9%)

      Kamala Harris

      74,320,684 votes (48.3%)

      Most voters wanted him.

      This is not an endorsement of trump, rather, a condemnation of the US voting public.

      if you want to have an argument about the definition of pluralaity and majority or whatever, I suggest

        Most would be greater than 50% by definition

        But thanks for revealing what you are, blocked

          Why exactly are you trying to win a war of semantics?

          What definition are you working from for “most”, because you seem to be meaning it in a far more semantically strict way than I have seen before
