        Cool less than half the voting age population votes in the US.

        And it has always been like this

        So whining about the people who never vote and will never vote isn’t helpful

      Trump won with 1% of the vote.
      35% of registered, eligible voters stayed home. If 1% of those that stayed home would have voted we would be in a different world right now.
      Protest voters are absolutely to blame for this.

        If you actually want to look at the numbers of who stayed home in 2024 after voting in 2020 then those demographics were the older white men/women and hispanic men. Probably because both those groups have a harder time stomaching a woman with the exact same policies

        The people protesting the Zionists’ war were college students and under 30s, who voted the exact same they always do.
