    FWIW,

    In 2024 Trump won:

    49.8% of the popular vote,

    312 Electoral College votes,

    and,

    31 states + ME-02

    In 1972 Nixon won:

    60.7% of the popular vote,

    520 Electoral College votes,

    and,

    49 states

    Two months and 2 days later, Nixon turned 60.

    Nixon played football, and at 32 years of age, became a lieutenant commander in the United States Navy;

    Cadet Bone Spurs, however, plays golf.

    Nixon talked with Armstrong and Aldrin during their moonwalk: “the most historic phone call ever made from the White House”.

    Trump, however, has a hissyfit while on his stupid website on Easter.
