“We’re gonna end it on day one … the whole thing is crazy,” Trump said on a Philadelphia talk show.

    I’ll look but the article took how many registered voters and how many votes for trump and votes for Biden. Depending on what you are thinking, trump gets 25% if only 25% of registered voters vote for him.

    This has numbers at the end. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/12/30/fact-check-fals-president-than-were-registered-u-s/4010087001/

      But the article states in the last election trump had 48% of the popular vote with Biden at 52%. The polls last time were pretty even at around 50%. If the polls back then were accurate why would they no longer be accurate? Did a disproportionate amount of democrats get rid of land lines vs republican in the last 4 years?

        Different measurements. 52% of who voted, not 52% of registered voters.

          72% of registered voters voted 155000 out of 238000. Of those registered voters who voted was who the article referred to.
