It is not half of Americans. It is at least 66% of them. A third of all Americans voted for Trump. Another third sat out and consciously chose not to vote. Then a third voted against him.

The majority of Americans approve of the governance and current state of the US.

I do not see how you equate not voting with Trump support when you're literally on the "Kamala wasn't left enough for me" website. And I'm speaking as someone who does think those people are fucking stupid and that they're about as or maybe even less likely to start a revolution than people who did vote.

I'm not who you replied to but I have a similar view.

For me, it's not "you didn't vote, so you support Trump", it's "you didn't vote, which says you were fine with any of the available candidates, how they presented themselves, and their plans for this nation. You were fine with any of them being President." Anybody who was fine with Trump being President gets criticism from me.

Hell, I give more credit to somebody who put a write-in vote for "my cat: Sir Fluffykins, esq. III" because at least that person would make their voice heard that no candidate was acceptable.

This is an open source forum similar to Reddit. It is not a dedicated site for American non-voters. It is very American to assume it is solely for them though. High off of your own farts, the lot of you.

If you thought I was being literal, I don't know what to tell you.
