The point is that the media immediate glommed on to a "popular mandate" with Trump. Yet, it was very much not true.

He arguably won a popular vote. That's barely a pop;lar vote mandate.

I couldn’t get half of my liberal friends to even vote. And, it wasn’t because they didn’t like Kamala - I sensed that they were just tired of globalism.

With what, a compass? This is an absurd statement, I bet they weren't wearing clothes manufactured in America, or using a phone that was built domestically.

The easiest way to fatigue a nation of nationalists is to let the world move on. The Axis forces might have been tired of globalism, but the globalists sure as hell weren't.
