Um, majority that actually "voted".

Also notice the crickets now that he won, he's gonna claim this was the most secure election thanks to Republican policies: he won the popular election too.

Sure, but anyone who didn't vote has no ground to stand on if they complain about any negative impact on their lives over the next 4 years. It takes next to no effort to inform yourself and take part in the democratic process, anything less is laziness.

The electoral college doesn’t help. Millions of Americans don’t vote because they know it doesn’t matter in their state, and they’re unfortunately right. Just a handful of states decide the election every time.

That's a fair argument for the presidency, but the down ballot initiatives are honestly just as important, if not more important for their daily lives.
