Biden crosses 80 million vote territory.

[DenverBrian]

First you use the soap box to register your ideas

The you use the ballot box to make those ideas into law.

Then you use the cartridge box if either of the above are shut down or tampered with.

Guess what time is approaching us right now?

Unless it's a magazine box! Or a clip. Or something something.

How many of those 80 million votes were Trump votes flipped by voting software?

None

Also, there can be no mandate when most people who did vote for you don't like you, they just hate the other guy.

Kinda like Trump in '16, isn't it?

None

I said the day after the election in 2016 that Trump had no mandate.

Some might. No one who was informed and honest would.

There are at least 235,000,000 eligible voters in this country. That means Biden got at most, 34% of the eligible vote.

Hardly a mandate.

Biden won the highest share of eligible voters of any candidate since Nixon in 1972 (higher even than Reagan got in his two wins). If there is such a thing as a mandate, Biden has one.

No he doesn't. To have a mandate a large majority must vote for you because they like you and / or your policies. Joe did not get that vote.

This is the single dumbest argument I have ever heard anyone make in arguing that a president does not have a mandate: "Sure, he got the highest share of eligible voters in almost 50 years, but they voted for him for the wrong reasons." Just moronic.

He got a third of the eligible voters. You can play stupid word games all you want. The numbers remain what they are.

What this election has proven is that Democrats in general, are stupid. They vote based on emotion rather than reason. They don't care a rat's ass about the country and want only to vent their hate and pettiness, regardless of the cost to the nation. It also proves that millions of Americans are too lazy to get off their dead asses and vote. My feeling is that they should be tracked down and stripped of their citizenship, have all their constitutional protections taken from them, have no government services provided for them. If they don't care enough about this country to do their civic duty and vote, they deserve nothing.

I am correct. You aren't.

Word games? I'm just citing data. Biden's current vote total is around 33.4% of total eligible voters (and will go up slightly as final vote counts come in). In 1984, in an election that almost everyone would agree gave Reagan a mandate, Reagan's vote was 31.2% of eligible voters. If mandates are a thing, you really cannot claim that Biden did not win one.

People voted for Reagan because of his policies.

People did not vote for Joe because of his policies.
