It seems like we are watching the (slow) de-legitimization of American liberal democracy unfold. At least from my perspective. For example, the other day, my normally progressive-liberal parents were talking about how they would prefer to live in China at this point. It put me off guard ngl. People are losing faith, even if Biden's win has given many a brief dose of copeium. What do y'all think?
Just to let you know 70 million is only about 20-25% of the US population. It's a lot but nowhere near a majority.
The voting populace is the best sample size we can get for the country.
It's fair to say almost half the country wants Trump if almost half the people who voted, voted for him.
Doesn't that exclude nonvoters though?
