Summary
Donald Trump and Republicans are falsely framing his 2024 election win as a historic “landslide” and sweeping mandate, despite the data showing otherwise.
Trump won the popular vote by just 1.6%, the smallest margin for a winning president since 1968, and his 307 electoral votes rank low in U.S. history.
Crucial Senate and House gains were limited, with Republicans relying on gerrymandering for their narrow House majority.
This exaggeration of victory serves to justify potential power expansions, but the facts debunk claims of an unprecedented or overwhelming mandate.
The “public’s opinion” is of very little concern without a threat of violence to back it up.
you go first.
I already am… My community, and myself, have already started putting into action plans to help us through this: Bolstering our mutual aid network, doing first aid classes, hitting the range weekly now, planning our block gardens, etc etc.
I meant that if you’re going to advocate for violence, you go first.
Wny do you think we are doing weekly range days now?
It might be a good idea not to advertise this online, if true.
Oh noes! A group of neighbors goes to the range weekly, grows food in gardens, and learns first aid… You’re right, they’ll drop firebombs on us like the did to MOVE.
I mean, it is what it is. My activities have been pretty openly discussed elsewhere, and apparently, it never tripped a background check. Not with the IRS, Dept of Education, Dept of the Treasury, TS-SCIF clearances, etc etc…
You are the one who just made that implication, not me.
