It still amazes that this percentage has been like this since over a decade and still he got elected, twice. Something is/was really broken, otherwise he could never have become president. Maybe the place for this comment but everytime i read something like this I am just really surprised this doesn't mean we dont have to deal with the turd.
The entire US political system is designed to prevent the will of the majority from being enacted. Just look at the number of votes in the senate for each party as one of the more egregious examples.
The first time it was legit. Well there was russian tampering, then assange released some shit just at the right time. So no really legit, but Clinton didn't do herself any favors. It was truely a we could run a donkey and win fail.
The second time, there was mush's actual vote tampering. There were areas that went red in contested states that historically didn't end up red. And since then, they've been hard at work trying to make sure that red has the advantage. I don't know if the current likely candidates are going to survive until the next run, but I predict there's going to be some gestapo bullshit and noone is ready to deal with.
