Trump plays stupid games and he gets stupid prizes.
Not sure what he expects.....he never got over 50% of a popular vote

people don't like him

Study of the moving goalposts:

2016 "Trump lost the popular vote, so he's illegitimate"
2024: "Well, Trump didn't get over 50% of the vote, so he's illegitimate".

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

He's always illegitimate as are his followers.

Al plays stupid games and he gets stupid prizes.
Not sure what he expected.....a new cane?

312-226 and all the battle ground states....now go pound sand

Obama got 365 in 08, and 332 in 12. Those were mandates. Trump's win is about average. Clinton got 370 in his first election, and 379 in his next. Roosevelt Harding an Coolidge all bypassed trump's little 312 bya long way. Even little Dubya got 400 electoral votes. Trump can't even stand along side Dubya. Several others got many more votes than trump, but you can see them at the link. It seems someone has been pounding sand up your butt.

It is the lowest popular majority percentage since 1860. He did not win a popular vote in 2016 or 2020.

Go back and look.

You still think presidents are elected by the popular vote? How silly.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

It determines their popularity, lowest since 1860, and now it is plummeting.

I'm not talking about Obama or Clinton.
Trump getting the electoral college AND ALL THE BATTLE GROUND STATES says you're
wrong with your assessment.

Big deal. all that means is he won that election, and not by very much compared to the really popular presidents.

Looks to me that you don't like yourself much. I like me fine!
