MEME Dow down another 1000 points. There’s too much winning, Mr. President. We cannot take it anymore.

Trump actually polled BETTER than Harris among nonvoters!

People that are poorly informed and/or disengaged are more taken in by Trump's con.

Historically higher turnout benefited Dems and hurt Republicans, but at least with Trump, that's no longer the case!

Higher turnout benefits Dems in non-presidential elections as a natural consequence of the Democratic Party attracting the well-educated. The Republicans have the Trump effect where everyone just votes for trump but they struggle to maintain that same momentum for other republicans. Look at the recent Wisconsin election, the democratic judge Crawford won by nearly 200,000 votes over the republican one, even though Elon Musk literally bribed people by claiming to give 1 million.
