The majority absolutely did not vote for this. Not only did a massive chunk of the population not even vote, but among those who did vote, Trump got less than 50% of those votes

This is also a choice. And in 2024 it was absolutely obvious that it's a choice for Trump.
Majority, supermajority even, either wanted Trump to be an absolute leader, or was OK with it.

You need to get out more. Or educate yourself on the issue. Believe it or not, it's not always a choice. That's just a fact of life here in the US that getting out or self-education will help you realize.

77M voted for Trump against 75M for Harris. So the majority voted for Trump, despite everyone telling them what a shitshow it would be. Which we can now witness on a daily basis.
