I agree except for that last point

77,744 people made Trump a President. The rest of us knew better.

Sorry but that's not how math works. 63 million people made trump president, and only 66 million of us knew better. That huge number of trump voters is the horrible reality of American politics weve had to come to terms with. Luckily some of the trump supporters learned from their mistake, but there's still millions of them out there, not <100k

Millions out there, countered by millions of Democratic voters, and over votes on both sides in states like Texas and California.

It was the 77K in those three states that threw it to Trump, and note, in 2020, Biden did not repeat Clinton's mistake.

Yeah I get that, but what I'm saying is it's not like the rest of the US knew better than that 77k figure. 77k is just the difference in votes, it doesn't represent the only 77k people that did wrong

This is true. 77k vastly undercounts the number of idiots that voted for that guy.

I don't think YOU understand statistics, lmao
