He won with 49.8%
it's 50.8% of the votes that went to either Kamala or Trump
Not how that works, but okay.
not really but you know, those are the votes that decide who becomes president
People like you keep the RNC DNC power sharing effective dictatorship scheme going.
"You can vote for all the pointless affirmation ribbons(D) and/or cruel scapegoating(R) you want, so long as you vote for soul crushing capitalist metastasis, for profit mass murder confidence schemes including our entire healthcare system, mass homelessness, and perverse levels of economic inequality(D&R) at all cost.
Freedom!"
how does voting other parties help?
Without people like you claiming our two corrupted, coconspiring parties shouting that they're the only choices, we could have a real choice.
Surely you see how it's in the best interests of the DNC and the RNC to declare themselves the only rational options, but still, sometimes they lose. AOC is a good example of this in a primary, they still despise her for "stealing" that neoliberals seat, and Sanders is another as an independent.
Republicans/Democrats are only as inevitable as we believe they are, and some people under their thumb sure to enjoy trapping others under said thumb. With either of those parties in charge, we are not free. This is theater, a game they cooperatively play against us while taking the same bribes from the same oligarchs and driving social wedges between us to keep us too hateful unite against the economy they both protect from us. The supposed democratic equivalent of "you can have any color you want as long as it's black."
Things will continue to decline until their political duopoly ends, or we collapse by their hands which is looking sooner rather than later. We sink a little slower under Democrats because pointless ribbons don't destroy the social fabric as scapegoating does, but we're still sinking under either.
the duopoly is not gonna end by voting. you gotta take down both parties for that to happen. good luck
You say that as if there is any hope under them.
There is not. Best, best, best, best, best case scenario, the Neoliberals take back the white house on four years, but will do nothing to reign in our oligarch capitalists, leaving the table set for fascist takeover again in 4 years.

If you have any hope that doesn't begin with painful collapse, you're deluding yourself. The most likely outcome of all this is a couple decades of fascist control until climate change, that thing still going unchecked were only beginning to feel, takes civilization behind the shed and does what needs to be done.
At this point im kind of grateful climate change is beating all models and projections, because the thought of generations being born into this greed prison hell, born to suffer for a few sociopath families, that would be worse.
what point are you trying to make
That's true, but the meme quite clearly says that Trump got 50.8%.
You're wrong Lemming
It is however very in character for trump to say otherwise lol
