I bet that was entirely unrelated to the constant drumbeat of “leftists” saying that voting third party to show the Democrats their mistake of not being everything they wanted them to be. Absolutely no relation to the people who literally told me they wanted trump to win because it would hurt the Democrats.

And that’s just what I saw on Lemmy. Mainstream brainwashing social media platforms are magnitudes worse. Add in the billionaire media owners giving him millions of dollars in free advertising, and I’m not surprised at this outcome.
