There have been three U.S. Presidential election in the past 100 years where the incumbent was not reelected: Hoover in 1932, Carter in 1980 and Trump in 2020. This is commonly ascribed to a loss of popularity among voters who had previously voted for them. For example, Hoover received over 21 million votes in 1928, but less than 16 million votes in 1932. Similarly, Carter received over 40 million votes in 1976, but less than 36 million votes in 1980.
But what about Trump? He received 63 million votes in 2016, but he received more than 74 million votes in 2020. How can an incumbent President gain more than 11 million votes and still lose reelection? To use a common phrase, the numbers don't add up. Incumbents are supposed to lose reelection because their popular support decreases, not increases by almost 20%. So what happened?
Well, we all know the answer: Tens of millions of unverified mail-in ballots were flooded into the election, with an astounding 90% voting for Joe Biden. The volume and statistical distribution of these ballots are so far beyond reasonable probabilities as to make them invalid on their face, just as reporting more votes than eligible voters would be (another Democrat tactic). But this is almost beside the point.
An immensely popular President can't be voted out of office. He has to be removed.
