Donald Trump wallowed today in the “L” word to describe the 2024 presidential election.<\/p>\n

In Trump’s universe, the “L” word is shorthand for “landslide.” He kept saying during a rambling, nonsensical presser with reporters in Mar-a-Lago, Fla., that he defeated Vice President Kamala Harris in a “landslide.”<\/p>\n

Let me be crystal clear — again! No, he did not<\/em> ride a landslide of votes to victory in 2024!<\/p>\n

He made some remark about winning the popular vote by “millions of votes.” Let’s see, he pulled in fewer than 2.3 million more votes than Harris. Let’s also note that more than 155 million ballots were cast. Now, when you say “millions of votes” separated them, my own perspective tells me it’s more than what Trump rolled up against the VP. Yes, he won more votes than any Republican presidential candidate in history, so I’ll give him that.<\/p>\n

But the landslide he said he scored does not exist.<\/p>\n

I just want to be clear on that point.<\/p>\n

I won’t go into the rest of the idiocy that flowed from this fellow’s mouth. Doing so would mean I would miss something critical.<\/p>\n

Landslide? It did not occur in 2024.<\/p>\n\n
