2024 US Presidential Election

[Mister Agenda]

As more votes are counted, Trump's margin of victory in the popular vote has shrunk to 1.68%. It's not going to cost him the presidency, but it's hardly a mandate.

He got about 2.5 million more votes than Harris, Hillary got nearly 2.9 million more votes than him when she lost.

"President-elect Trump’s incoming administration is expected to take aim at legal immigration in addition to cracking down on the illegal variety, slowing the pace of application approvals and redirecting resources to look for fraud in old applications, including naturalizations."

How far back is he going? Might he end up throwing himself out of the country, as a child of immigrants?

Trump is not a child of immigrants.

Boru

My apologies, it was sloppily worded by me, he has grandparents on both sides that were immigrants.

There is the whole foreign wife thing. But somehow I bet it wouldn't hurt Melania all that much to be sent far, far away - as long as she has bank account access.

At this point I hope he lives out his term. If he dies, we get Vance for who knows how long -- but long enough to cement the destruction of our democracy. I believe that this will be the last free and fair election I'll see in my lifetime.

I don't see that being the case at all. I don't see any evidence the Trump administration would do anything to impact the electoral process to the extent that one could argue such a thing?

I was so naive. smh.
