In the 1980 election, Reagan won 44 states. Only 6 voted for Carter. In the 1984 election he won 49 states.
That’s the kind of landslide tRump has wet dreams about.
But it also reminds me of other countries like Russia, when they have an “Election”, and then the standing dictator wins 95% of the vote. It’s then an open secret that the vote was tampered with, but who’s going to stop it?
The 1980 and 1984 elections have that same vibe to them.
And the policies he enacted are the reason the usa are a shithole now. Reagan is like the original OG corrupt profits over people president.
Are we SUUUUURE those elections were legit?
Elections generally tilt one way or the other based on fractions of a percentage of the vote, in fact, a single vote can be the difference.
So, if two candidates are evenly matched, it’s possible that a whole state can go one way or the other based on just a few votes.
Note that this is not specific to the USA and I’m in Australia.
As far as “elections” go where there’s only one choice, that’s not an election but a dictatorship and from where I’m standing, the USA is heading in that direction at a breakneck speed.
