The turnout of this election was 63.9%, meaning around 8808400000 people did not vote for either of the two candidates. That is more votes than for Trump or Kamala, making “No One” the real winner of the popular vote. The USA bourgeoisie liberal democratic political system cannot garner large support of the population to “legitimize” it through the process of election.

Spoken like someone who believes that 99.99% turnout and approval is how societies actually function, like the DPRK claims.

Republican, AND all voters voters consistently ranked the economy as the number one issue to them this election. Voters flock to Trump due to his perceived opposition to the ruling class of the United States, and the injury to their economic conditions under Biden, mainly through inflation. Fascism coats itself in populist rhetoric to the confused but class conscious, proletariat.

Have you ever spoken to a fucking Republican in your life?

Have you ever spoken to an average voter in your life?

'Economy' is a buzzword to them.

Democrats control the Senate, and The Presidency. The house has one of the most razor thin majorities in US history. There is no simply world where this bill did not pass if the Democrats didn’t support it.

Thank you for reinforcing my point. Viewing politics as a series of isolated incidents performed for an audience of completely reasonable voters is utterly absurd, even in an ideal hypothetical situation, much less the current US.
