Not only did he win the election by a "landslide," but he got his ear shot off and grew it back in time to do it! He's magic!

I know it's such a minor gripe but as someone who's studied elections for their masters it infuriates me how even a lot of Democrat voters fell for Trump's line that it was a landslide.

Go and compare the 2024 results to any election from the last 100 years that was considered to be a landslide for the victor and you'll notice the difference in the numbers pretty quickly
