OK, so. A majority of Americans did not do so. Grossly simplified, one-third did, one-third didn't, and one-third stayed home. If you're being fed the line that a majority of voters wanted Trump, it simply isn't true. Millions stayed on the sidelines because of Gaza and feeling like there was no point (which, in many states, there isn't; there are like seven where your vote matters).

You don't have to be nice to her. But how often have you seen "bitch" used as a pure pejorative on Beehaw? Consider your audience.
