Thanks for requiring a clip or source. It’s easy for anyone to slap text on a picture and claim it as truth or “just a joke”.

Thanks , I can't listen to him ramble. My hand uncontrollably goes on my forehead and I get embarrassed that almost half of Americans voted for this fucker.

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

~22% of the population voted for him. Yeah, that's still too much, but it isn't anywhere close to a majority

277 million Americans were 18 or older in 2024. 77 million voted for Trump. That's ~27%.

Maybe so, but almost 40% of the population thinks he's doing a good job.

I think it needs to be an archived link of the tweet... I suspect the problem is tweets getting deleted, not so much the veracity of the quote (which is well documented)

At least... I hope. Because otherwise that would be dumb.

I guess I'm dumb, lol. I originally started doing it because the propaganda and lies being spread through memes in this community were a lot. Most of the people, like 99.9% in this community, are awesome. They'll help if a poster doesn't understand.

Of what Tweet? This is at a live event.

[–] ImgurRefugee114@reddthat.com 1 points 44 minutes ago

Its a screenshot of a tweet .. So presumably that tweet.

However the mod responded already; seems they wanted an archive of the clip.
