The Canadian government has insisted that information on domestic goods is readily available to all trading partners, even including nations that recently elected a felony-convicted game show host to be their head of state. Instead, the United States has decided to employ a rarely-chosen trade tactic that international economists refer to as the “fuck around and find out” model.

Trump got 74 million votes when he ran against Biden. Why is him getting an additional 3 million more votes this time hard for you to believe? There's roughly 244.7 million eligible voters. Statistically, half of them are average or below average when it comes to brainpower.

There was a huge disinformation campaign to keep as many of the 84 million Biden voters at home as possible. Many trolls posted here constantly: "both sides are the same", "I ReFUsE to VoTE GENOCIDE", "I'm voting 3rd party/green this year!!" and so on.

In 2020, there were 80.9 million eligible voters who didn't vote.

In 2024, there were 89.2 million eligible non-voters.

They didn't need to cheat, they just spent crazy amounts of money filling democratic voters with pure distilled apathy.
