62,984,828 voted for him in 2016 thinking Hillary was inevitable. 74,216,154 voted from him during the deepest darkest part of the pandemic. However I would argue that a good number didn't like January 6th. In fact he had a 6 percent drop from right before the election (45.2%) to his last favorability poll (39.4%.) While this happened, disfavorable ratings went from 52.1% on the same November poll to 56.7%, a 4% boost. Mind you that is registered voters, all adults it is 59% dislike to 37% favorable with an increase in dislike of 5.3% from 53.7% on election day and a decrease in favorability of 4.8%, from 41.8%.
So let's say Trump has a 5% drop in supporters (we cannot tell how worse it got since his tracking ended with him leaving office so it could easily be more) his ceiling is 70m. Mind you, he has to work against Republicans who turned their backs to the working man with the stimulus vote when they voted it down because "We are doing better and didn't need one."
So yes, I do find it hard to believe that Trump has a 100% backing by his supporters. I can say I have seen less and less Trump flags on cars when I would see at least two a day. I guess they realized that it is a target for supporting an un-American who tried to upsurp an election.
Also cut the crap on "it was a peaceful protest," because walking around with zip ties is NOT peaceful. We're there peaceful members who didn't break the lines, yes. But, enough did. Just like race-baiting Sen. Johnson, you'd be all up on BLM even if they themselves didn't do it but protested at the capitol, so stop being a hypocrite. Violence is violence. I never agreed with the George Floyd riots, I just understood why they were happening because they were the same underbelly that caused the Rodney King riots. A time of economic strife for people and a racially charge assault by police. I don't like that they burnt down stores and looted others, but I can understand why they felt the need, especially in the Twin Cities. The election, I don't see it because there has been no proof of fraud that has come up in the five months after.
String up together a bunch of sentences and make up statistics from online polling doesn’t change the fact that 74 million Americans voted for Trump in 2020.
And the overwhelming majority voted for nobody. These posts on both sides get tiresome.
I agree, but I think people want their votes to matter so I think people argue about it because it seems like some are acting as though everyones votes dont count, both sides votes matter, ALL votes count and matter, at least they all should, no matter what "side" you are on. We should all be on the same side in my opinion

They do this to misrepresent the amount of votes their guy got and somehow justify to themselves and others how they have a mandate or even simple majority. Neither Trump or Biden had even half the population’s support and maybe 25% if that. The true majority didn’t vote for either of those clowns.

DO you think we should all have access to guns? that we should close the Border? that we should stop wasting money on other country's and take care of Americans first?
