Harris got a million more popular votes in 2024 than idiot got in 2020

Ok ok, idiot got 2 million more than Harris in 2024, but she was an unknown.

I looked them up and here are the potus totals ranked highest to lowest: (rounded off)

1 Biden 2020 81m
2. idiot 2024 77m
3. Harris 2024 75m
4. Idiot 2020 74m
5. Clinton 2016 66m
6. Idiot 2016 63m

I know that only the electoral college votes actually matter, but when we watch idiot dwindle because of dementia, it's nice to remember that Biden is the all time winner in the last 12 years. And idiot the lowest.

But, Harris beat the fool TWICE. Just not the day we needed her to win. Unfortunately. We'd all be having very different, and wonderful lives had she won.
