But yeah, the Dems are "weak", and they don't have a propaganda machine to make people vote them.
Sorry, your sentence structure was sketchy, and I read it wrong. I thought you said that Trump won the popular vote twice.
In reality, he lost it three times. I don't believe for a second that he got the popular vote in 2024. They claim that the swing states had millions of ballots with a straight Dem ticket, except Trump at the top. That's a complete lie, which the Dems enthusiastically adopted.
I have never heard a single person claim that they voted that way, not one, and yet there are supposed to be millions. Also, studies have shown that that voting pattern existed only in the Swing States. Why didn't it happen in other states as well?
Obviously, Elon (and the Russians) hacked the machines to switch votes from Kamala to Trump, and do it in numbers big enough that he can claim bragging rights about being the popular vote winner. It obviously stuck in his craw that his previous win had been a fluke of the Electoral College, and he was just one more illegitimate Republican (MAGA) president without popular support.
Besides that disputed election, the Republicans (now MAGA) haven't won the popular vote since Reagan.
