49.8%, but 50.8% of those voters who didn't lodge a protest vote. I have more respect for the protestors than for the people who didn't vote at all (they literally don't count for anything) but the protesters still had something to do on election day which they thought was more important than helping determine who would be the next President.
As for his policies polling negatively: I don't care, unless they're policies that he didn't campaign on. (And even in that case, the voters still chose the dangerously unpredictable candidate.) Frankly, I have more respect for those Republicans who are happy with what's going on than for the ones experiencing buyer's remorse. At least they're good at being bad, rather than grossly negligent.
With that said, I do think it's funny that if only about 0.8% of the voters had chosen otherwise then my assessment of the American national character would be dramatically different. I admit that I'm not entirely rational about this.
He repeatedly denied supporting Project 2025, and that's exactly what he's been implementing. Start caring
