In 2016, Trump won the veteran vote by 26 points. He won it by 10 this November.

Higher than it should have ever been but it was the smallest margin of any GOP nominee in a generation.

Guess those Suckers and Losers turned out.

...stupid voters, too.
Ethnic minorities, women, gays....
Just because trump fucks them and people like them is no reason NOT to vote for him.
Stupid crosses all kinds of group boundaries.
It's like the Covid. Only more serious.
I imagine that there is a black, gay doctor out there who voted for trump.
