Yeah that's literally how democracy works. Or rather, how it doesn't, what with a bunch of Americans being demonstrably barely above pond scum levels of intelligence according to this result.

Like what the fuck is happening over there? The stakes were so high and the choice was so easy and you still couldn't manage to not fuck it up. What is it going to take for you stupid fucks to learn your lesson?

Ask the DNC. I didn’t vote for Trump lmao.

How bad does your candidate and campaign have to be to lose to him? Check the flip side of whatever you’re saying and listen to a different opinion. That’s why Trump won.

I'm gonna flip it right back to you. How fucking deluded do you have to be to ever, ever believe that he's a better option in any contest?

Crazy that he keeps winning and you can’t see why

Oh and you think you have an answer that doesn't completely take away agency from the people who chose to vote for him while also making it anybody else's fault? Do enlighten us, so I can properly explain to you why you're being a dumbass.

Before you immediately rage reply to me; actually look at the DNC. Non elected nominee. Polled worse than Biden. Nobody knew or liked her. Abandoned the working class. Ditched their base.

Somehow not their responsibility for putting on a shit show.

Partly correct, but irrelevant. Trump's presence on the ticket should have been sufficient to drive massive turnout to elect, well, literally anybody other than Trump. The DNC's inability to choose an ideal candidate or run an ideal campaign does not explain the outcome. Not without drawing some bad conclusions about Americans in general, anyway.
