It sucks as an American too, half of us didn't vote for him. We love you Canada and Mexico and do what you need to do to take care of yourselves.

A third of you voted against him, a third didn't care if he got elected, a third wanted to see him get elected.

More like 30%/30%/40%.

If not voting counted as a vote for nobody then nobody would have won an election in the US in decades.

I guess "nobody" would still be a better president…

So only a third of the population eligible to vote didn't want Trump in power, not half.

Half who voted, lol. It's just perspective.

I guess more than half did not vote him, but a large proportion did not vote at all, or voted third-party
