It doesn't work that way.

They need only look at 55% of the US population to see that in his craziness he can completely f you up! I hope they have a plan and solid commitment from allies! Stay safe Greenland! 💗🙏🏼

6. It's not 55%. Only 23% of Americans voted for him. 76 million people voted for him. There are 330 million people

9. Until we start conducting proper recounts I'm not going to get into this.

I will say that the press works for whatever percentage you wish to call it so the voices seem a hell of a lot louder than your 23! Personally I believe TSF when he says M knows his way around the machines. Until we secure our voting system none of this matters. Worse possible case, Harris lost popular vote by 1.5%. I think we can agree on that. Of course, that is with M’s magic numbers. Also, including the imbeciles that don’t vote in the percentage only makes us feel better. We have 100 problems that need to be corrected before our next successful election. Hope we can get started on cleaning up the mess! Take care! My best to you!

Their numbers showed what, 51% of the vote? I know raging MAGA who do not vote but raise the T flag and more than likely are oiling the guns itching for a fight right now. I do not underestimate disgruntled disenfranchised people that go uncounted.

Something more than wreckless banter is about to happen! I fear for Greenland and her brave people. 🙏🏼💗

But we’re respected again on the world stage thanks to the god king Trump. Just ask any MAGA person. They’ll tell you
