About 77 million people voted for Trump in 2024, that is 22% of the US population. He is actually far more unpopular than people think.

- ap99 1y agoThis is how you lie with statistics. What percent of the US population is eligible to vote, what percent actually voted, and which percent did Kamala receive?
- Amezarak 1y agoThat would be approximately the same percentage of the population that voted for Obama in 2008. (69 million votes, 304 million people, 22%.) I don't think this is a crazy argument to make, but only if you make clear by this standard almost no President has ever been "popular", and almost no PM in other countries.
