Trump got a record for a sitting president, 75 million votes in 2020. Yeah, sure, Biden got 81 million. But if you discount out the Peoples Republics of California and New York, Trump won the popular vote by 1 million.

Trump doesn't have to win the popular vote. He has to win in the electoral college. If just 20,000 votes were changed in 2020 Trump would have won. That's how close the battle ground states like Arizona and Georgia were. There was a ton of ballot harvesting going on in the battleground states.

Now, for ignorant ass libtards that think the republican party is the minority. Here's what the statistics look like:

State Senates
Dems 857
Repubs 1,110

States Houses
Dems 2,426
Repubs 2,947

Repubs lead in governors 26-24

Get this. There are more repubs in the Senate, 49, than Dems, 48. The 3 Independents make the difference. But anyway the repubs are just 2 away from a majority.

Repubs hold the house by 222 to 212.

In 20 states repubs have a supermajority, Dems just 9.

So overall, if you think the republicans are the minority party, guess again. Ballot harvesting won for dems in 2020 and 2022. Republicans need to beat them at their own game.

I've just given you libtards plenty of reason to keep sniveling.

PS: No RINO can win the republican nomination. Don't give me any shit about "Well, then you can't win the general without a RINO." A RINO winning is the same as a DEM winning. Fuck that shit.
What on Earth are you arguing---that Trump can win? How could Trump ever win? The Liberals would just steal the Election like they did last time, right?

Really, the matchup doesn't matter, because any result that is not Trump winning will mean the Election is stolen. If Liberals COULD steal the Election, then they WOULD steal the Election, which means, in your view, it should not be possible for Trump to win. If Biden wins, then Trump loses; if Trump wins, then it gets stolen and Trump loses.

That makes everything after your first sentence immaterial, but I'll respond anyway.

Okay, and if I discount every state that is not named Wyoming, then Trump won the national popular vote by a margin of well over 40%. If my aunt had a dick, she'd be my uncle. If we throw away New York, California, Texas and Tennessee, then we're back to Biden winning the national popular vote. That's trading the #1 and #4 most populated states (Biden) for #2 and #15 (Trump).

See, I can cherry-pick shit just as well as you can. It's not difficult.

As has already been mentioned, you can have Arizona and Georgia. It's still endlessly hilarious that the Democrats won in Georgia. You know your social policies are out of touch with the American people when you're losing Georgia. How the fuck does that even happen? Yeah, yeah, ballot harvesting. Whatever. Trump can have those states. He can have Nevada, as well. He would still need Michigan, Wisconsin or Pennsylvania.

Your inconvenient truth is that Trump did not simply lose; he got thoroughly dominated...in the Electoral Vote. In a historical context, this election was NOT particularly close.

And then you guys go off the fucking rails with the Election fraud bullshit. Yeah. I'm sure that brought some people to your side in the swing states. Trump has very little chance in 2024. You had better get down on your knees and pray to your God that we have a serious fucking recession between now and then because that's the only way it's happening for you.

Paul Ryan is not a RINO; he just doesn't seem to give much of a shit about social policy...you know, the fucking policy stances that cause Republicans to LOSE national elections?

No first-term Republican has won the popular vote since 1988. More than thirty fucking years, Mickey. They can do as they like in their states; people can just move if they don't like it. Right-wing social policies are simply a losing issue in national elections for Republicans, in every single instance...the faster you guys just admit that, the faster you'll be able to meaningfully compete in every POTUS election.

Like it or not, while 2020 wasn't a blowout, it wasn't close.
