Remember that half of the population is below average.
I’m assuming that other 2% had other motivations.

They’ll use proxies, unfortunately. Hire out of work Democrats to do the actual fighting.
He got non-fascists voting for him too though. I’m totally amazed at how much total misinformation people were fully believing even AFTER the vote. Amazingly, some people think he’s just another Republican that the Democrats are smearing, who got the economy running better when he was in power last than Biden did in his first term, so they voted Trump instead of Biden this time.
I have no idea how there are so many rocks that all those voters had room to live under them.
The problem is, once the middlemen gain power, they’re never gonna give you up. Music producers are a great example of this, as are telecoms companies.
All the current SaaS stuff is similar; the offerings LOOK similar, but they’re explicitly designed not to be a 1:1 match, so you can’t just take your business elsewhere, just like the mattress companies of old.
We’re even seeing this play out in the streaming video market, where each player has its own differentiator, moreso than we ever saw with traditional cable TV.
Standards are great, but middlemen have no incentives to not subvert them.
He won because he got more people to get out and vote for him.
The reasons for this are varied.
You describe how things work in 2024. I’m pretty sure we’re going to see Trump stomping hard on state’s rights pretty early in 2025.
Exactly; “Democrats” are the party of the “not Republicans”. With how far right the Overton window has shifted, that covers a LOT of the political spectrum, much of which is in opposition.
I presume Julie is trying to string things out until February when he expects to be pardoned?
False accusations by a member of government no less. One who should know better because he has access to the evidence.
Remember back when climate scientists discovered the ozone layer was thinning and the world banded together and worked to repair the damage we’d done?
I’d like to live in that reality again.
A strange promise, given Trump’s repeated accusation that the Democrats weaponized the justice system against him.
Trump doesn’t have issues with weaponizing the justice system; he has issues with being the target of justice.
Don’t forget Obama!
