Reelecting Trump is the US equivalent of Brexit - Lemmy.World

Most who voted for him are going to be quite surprised when it sucks for them too.

The difference being half of Americans actually chose this. It was not a half passed unnoficial referendum.
Wasn’t it something more like 23% of the population voted for him?

If you count the election as the biggest possible poll, that let’s you infer which way the non-voters would have gone.

And if you are a non-voter, that means you have declared the eventual outcome as your preferred outcome, since you did not vote otherwise.

any journal that printed a study that did polling with the methodology of this election would lose pretty much all of their credibility
