Before I was halfway thru, I determined this opinion was written by a liberal, bleeding heart, blaming President Trump for everything. Donald J. Trump gained his unanimous win for the Presidency with votes coming from both the democrat party and the republican party. It was a landslide. The American people have finally had enough of the democrat failures. President Trump culminated a lot of his promises on his first day in the White House. He went right to work and the democrats are still whining for their loss; disrupting and interfering with President Trump’s promises to the American people. All we hear from the democrats is: “the sky is falling! the sky is falling”. Perhaps, right now in history, we might want to consider sending these power-hungry democrats (along with all of the illegals), back to their countries, because their country is NOT the United States of America.
Crockett is a good example of their expertise by her saying: “I don’t know anything about the job, but I am black. You need to hire me.” A typical democrat and a typical democrat statement.

You claim that Trump’s 2024 election win was a landslide. Really. Trump beat Harris in the popular vote by 1.5%. That is a pretty slim margin. Trump only received 49.8% of the vote. In 2020, Joe Biden had approximately the same number of Electoral College votes (306) as Trump did this year but had a higher popular vote than Trump, with 51.3% to Trump’s 46.9%. This is a 4.4% difference.. Nobody called this a landslide win. Tom Larson needs to accept truth and not Trump’s lies. Trumps’ ego will not let him accept a slim win.
Trump’s 2024 election win was a close win not a landslide win. Trump’s popular vote win was 49.8% , which was only 1.5% higher than Harris’s vote total. This is a very slim win. In 2020, Joe Biden won the popular vote with 51.3% compared to Trump’s 46.9%. Biden’s popular vote was 4.4% higher than Trump’s, yet nobody claimed that election was a landslide. Defeating your opponent by 1.5% of the popular vote would be better described as a squeaker rather than a landslide. Let’s start accepting real facts as truth rather than Trump’s’ lies.
