Actually, 20 million votes are suspiciously unaccounted for

Lemme play devil's advocate and ask if that would really be such a bad thing if we were considering being an unhinged lunatic gets your people elected.

Yeah probably it would be a bad thing. Republicans try to mobilize the idiot vote. To get that, you can be unhinged, but you alienate the more reasonable voters, the educated city people that the dems absolutely need.

Although it would be interesting to see two unhinged parties try to fight it out to get the idiot vote. I assume Italian political culture to be something like that, all the smarter Italians I've ever spoken to seem extremely frustrated by their system.

Biden won on memes of him eating ice cream, being old, being Dark Brandon, sniffing kids, claiming people aren't black, saying that poor kids are just as smart as white kids, etc.

During a term when Trump memes stopped because they were played out. Obviously the new rule is that the first person to become a meme goes into the White House, or as Trump calls it "The Whites Only House"

If they would have run an ad of Kamela Harris as Skibidi Toilet singing Numa Numa Ney, everyone would have voted for her. But instead they had memes of JD Vance fucking a couch.

People not turning out is not the same as votes "suspiciously missing"

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

People did turn out though, so many states reported record turnout, yet.. this..

Did people just go to the polls, see the choices and go "Eh.. nevermind" and go home? Like millions of people?

[–] Darorad@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

People turned out in most swing states, they didn't in safe states

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'd believe that if they all didn't turn red
