> [@Procrustus](#): > > I would have believed that we were a nation of 20 or 30% racist assholes. 48% shocks me. I guess I was naive. No, you were closer to right the first time. > [@](#): > > Approximately 240 million people were eligible to vote in the 2020 presidential election and roughly 66.1% of them submitted ballots, totaling 158,427,986 votes. Joseph Biden received 81,283,501 votes, Donald Trump 74,223,975 votes, and other candidates (including Jo Jorgensen and Howie Hawkins) a combined total of 2,920,510 vote. Roughly 81 million eligible voters did not cast a ballot. ^Wikipedia, from [https://www.fec.gov/documents/4227/federalelections2020.pdf](https://www.fec.gov/documents/4227/federalelections2020.pdf) 74 million Trump voters over 240 million eligible-to-vote gives us 30.8% racist assholes among all potential voters. (And/or ‘voting to protect my tax breaks but basically fine with racism’ voters.) Or, 74 million Trump voters among 158 million actual voters (still 2020) gives us 46.8 million racists/‘okay-with-racism’ votes, which admittedly is closer to that 48% figure. But if you look at it as ‘ **how many people bestirred themselves to vote for Trump, thus expressing their okay-ness with racism, among all Americans eligible to vote** ’ then you have what I believe to be a more relevant figure, the aforesaid 30.8%. So, yeah. ---

Seems to me that whenever the media mentions the orange whinypuss complaining about the lethal force bullshit they should immediately show the similar language in the Biden search order. ---

I’ll be waiting for the first time one of Trump’s cult members tries to take one of these on an airplane in their luggage or something. And then they get detained for trying to board with a concealed weapon. ---

Must be a 2nd Amendment thing. Live and learn. Did you know notice the “Emergency Glass Breaker”? “The bottom of the handle has a tactical glass breaker to help you break out & escape in an emergency.” I guess they’re talking about next January.

I opened an incognito window and filled out fake name and address to see the price: One for $67, two for $60 each, and three for $53.33 each. And look at the thing: [![](https://trumpcollectibleknives.com/images/rev-slide-img1.jpg) ](https://trumpcollectibleknives.com/images/rev-slide-img1.jpg) It’s a glorified box cutter, and can’t have cost them more than a buck apiece from their Chinese supplier. And you can’t even see the shipping fee unless you put in a credit card number, which I didn’t do. The first item in the FAQ is: > Why do I have to pay for shipping? > > We kindly ask our customers to cover the shipping fees because we are not a Government funded operation and we simply cannot afford to cover the cost of product and the shipping fees. So the shipping price is probably just as outrageous as the item price. I’m guessing at least $20. But there must be thousands of rubes falling over themselves to buy this crap. I can’t say I have much sympathy for them. But I weep for our country. ---

Allegedly they’ve only made 250 of them. The way the graphic keeps popping the blade out is disquieting. Also: “TRUMP OTF KNIFE USES ONE KNIFE TO RULE THEM ALL” What? I mean, I know what it’s referring to, but still-what? ---
