As a European I am still astonished, that this is the guy, around half of American voters want to be president.
@randahl it's less than a third really, most Americans are quite normal and are being held hostage by a fascist minority. Like pretty much everywhere else soon by the looks of it......
@Lazarou @randahl
yeah there are a ton of disaffected people here. I will say the Dems are hated in many parts of the country. but also some of the people there can't stand Trump so they aren't sure where to go instead. about 50% of the population identifies as Independent, and that is largely driven by dramatic *decreases* in people identifying as Republican (bc of Trump).

even though 2020 had record turnout it was still just 67%
@smitten now compare that to Denmark: 84.1 % for the parliamentary elections of 2022.
