Well half the VOTERS voted for him but 100% of our nation (and the world) is suffering from it.

I believe there are some in our nation who are so oblivious (poorly educated and under-educated--Trump's people) to what is happening right under their very own noses that they are not suffering one bit--not yet, at least. Wait until they start messing with Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans' Benefits, SNAP, the affordable Care Act, College scholarships.

Actually he got less than 50% of the vote. Kamala was just less than that
