    The tiny majority of voters. Not the country. Close? Not really.

      All those eligible voters who didn’t bother to vote at all who make up the rest of the country spoke too. They said they didn’t give a shit.

      So again, seems like a “why bother?” situation.

      That’s a great argument until you realize the rest of the country (the part that didn’t speak) literally couldn’t decide which is worse or just didn’t care. So they did speak, and what they said was “hwbennfswbebnsjdjbdbshdukabw”.

        What still gets me is how there are Americans who’re still obliviously indecisive when they are presented, clearly, with one option being detrimentally worse than the other. And still can’t make up their minds.

        “Uhhhhhhhhh dis guy has bad plans and uhhhhhhhhh I don’t know if they’re good or not. Wait, maybe…ummmmmmmm I…don’t know, I mean I guess? I don’t think struggling to make ends meet is that bad but I’m not sure…I don’t think I’ll have health care in the future if I go with this guy…I…I can’t decide!”
