The Republican presidential candidate ridiculously claimed that Biden is "trying to hold" Bibi back, as the Israeli prime minister continued to ruthlessly bomb Lebanon and Gaza.

“He’s doing a good job,” Trump saidabout the Israeli leader. “Biden is trying to hold him back, just so you understand, Biden is more superior to the VP. He’s trying to hold him back, and he probably should be doing the opposite, actually. I’m glad that Netanyahu decided to do what he had to do, but it’s moving along pretty good.”

    258m adults in the US in 2020 about 255m in 2016

    74 223 975 votes in 2020, 62 984 828 in 2016

    That’s both more than 18% and there’s no reason to believe that all people under 18 would vote against Trump.

    And that’s only based on the people that bothered voting, there’s supporters that didn’t vote that should get added to that as well.

      Fun fact: the population consists of people younger than 18 as well. Half of everyone ≠ half of adults

      there’s no reason to believe that all people under 18 would vote against Trump.

      True, but there’s also no reason to believe that an overwhelming majority wouldn’t.

      And that’s only based on the people that bothered voting

      Way to victim blame the disenfranchised 🤦
