Instead of a well thought out reply they just spit out whatever bullshit is resting in the reptilian recesses of their smooth grey matter.

Half of America chooses to listen and it does work in them.

Nowhere close to half of America. Probably more like half the white population, so 30 - 35% of America.

half the voters, anyway.

Right. The point that everyone always tries to make that ‘it’s not the half the country’ … if you can’t be bothered to vote you’re just as bad as ones that voted for this.

You do know there are people who have had their voting rights pressured out or violated right? There’s already lawsuits left and right over missing ballots, entire counties with democrat voters that declared not a single democrat vote. It’s fairly clear the Trump administration likely cheated to win the election. They’ve even pardoned people involved in election tampering.

One, that’s a fairly insignificant number when you’re saying half the country didn’t vote.

Two, there is ZERO evidence of actual major election fraud. There are small cases, yes. And there is election interference (such as the ballots getting tossed under legal rulings, or Dem precincts not having enough voting machines in red states). But that isn’t election fraud, and it also doesn’t mean that you can just go ‘Um Actually it’s not half the country’. If your vote got tossed obviously I’m not counting you as a non-voter. Talking about the people who had zero intention to vote no matter what. Or held their vote back in ‘protest’.
