This is normal in every election so you can use the same logic to dismiss any president. Do you only respect 100% sampling rates in other statistical situations

This is normal in every election so you can use the same logic to dismiss any president. Do you only respect 100% sampling rates in other statistical situations? At a certain point this line of thinking is just saying you don’t think elections work, or that there should be some non-democratic supervisor to undo bad ones. There is also an older idea that getting people out to vote is part of the game. An election is when citizens back leaders from their community. It’s not taking a survey of every 18+ human life form with a pulse.

  > How un-democratic, huh? Why are you using a quote about censorship and free speech to talk about the outcome of an election? Those aren’t related things. Nobody thinks majority vote makes truth, but majority of electoral voters does determine the president of the US. > Even if Trump had 99% of the votes It sounds like your previous comment expressing concern about the number of voters was in bad faith. > Trump voters have no clue how tariffs work I noticed this actually isn’t an argument against tariffs. I don’t think it’s going to look pretty if we starting quizzing low class democratic voters on economic questions either. This has no bearing on whether the policy is a good idea or not.
