        nah, you just listened to whatever your favorite news source was and parroted it without any concern of actual bias or whether it was people going to thiird party voters. You’re just echoing what you want to hear.

          What? Do you think election data varies (significantly) based on what news source you obtain the data from? Your Blue MAGA cognitive dissonance is showing lmao, you’re just saying things that don’t even make sense.

            Are you having a stroke, you just said something that has NOTHING to do with what I said.

            Also Blue MAGA what? That doesn’t even scan. Please, if you’re going to troll, try to do a little better, this is just embarrassing for you.

            you’re just saying things that don’t even make sense.

            Either you’re doing a REALLY shitty job at gas-lighting or you need to go to the doc stat and get checked out.

              Sure thing: as a leftist, I value education. I can help you understand basic reading comprehension as well as basic math. We’re in this together!

              Let’s review the conversation to help you grasp the language used here more effectively:

              • I state that Holocaust Harris would’ve lost even if she secured every single third-party vote.
              • You reply and accuse me of not having done the math.
              • I respond that, no, I have, and further, it’s not even difficult math to do.
              • You claim again that I have not done the math, and that I am just “listen[ing] to whatever my favorite news source was” - perhaps this is the source of your confusion. By implying that my mathematically-supported initial statement was somehow a consequence of news source bias, you necessarily imply that election data provided by news sources varies significantly. However, you are mistaken in this assertion; federal election vote counts are very public, very consistent information.
              • Indeed, FEC.gov confirms Holocaust Harris won 48.32% of the vote, while our current Pedophile-in-Chief won 49.8% of the vote. This leaves 1.88% remaining - however, 0.49% of that was for RFK Jr, so really only 1.39% remaining. 48.32% + 1.39% = 49.71%… still lower than Trump’s 49.8%. And that’s not even going into the Electoral College, where she got only 42% of delegates - even in a fantasy world where she was able to secure 100% of RFK Jr’s votes, it wouldn’t have been enough to save her failed campaign.
              • Based on the verifiable knowledge above, I question your basis for your claim that election data varies significantly by news sources, and suggest that the reason you are making illogical claims may be because your brain is facing the cognitive dissonance of realizing that your Blue-MAGA-reinforced “leftists cost my beloved Madam Genocidaire the presidency” narrative is not supported by even basic math.
              • Your cognitive dissonance continues to cloud your cognition to such a point that you’re unable to follow a basic conversation without a handholding walkthrough to review what was already said.

              Hopefully this elucidates for you how this conversation was based neither in gas-lighting nor undiagnosed, unspecified pathologies, but indeed, your own stubborn refusal to accept basic math. Praxis be with you!
