    What you just said doesn’t follow from the point octopus_ink was making.

        I think you’ve fundamentally misunderstood the point.

        The margin that Trump won by, was higher than the number of “Leftist protest voters”, unless you’re dishonestly counting every non-voter in the country as a Leftist protester.

          I feel like a lot of leftists figured Harris was horrible so they might as well teach everyone a lesson and sit the vote out helping Trump ultimately win.

          I said helping, not being the cause of.

          It’s like you’re arguing that just because you voted Trump your vote wasn’t the deciding one so he’s not your fault.

          But between the protest votes and the non voters they definitely caused Trump to be elected.

            At which point the facts backing up your anti-leftist tirade become so weak as to be meaningless. You’re ascribing a level of responsibility to Leftists that you’re quite happy to let literally everyone else in the country off the hook for, including people who actually voted Trump.

              Between the protest voters and non voters we’re past eighty million.

              Are you claiming that twenty five percent of the potential voters are meaningless?
