A majority of Americans say they wouldn't support former President Trump, new polling shows, even as he remains the overwhelming favorite among Republicans.
74 million people voted for him in 2020…which is about 22% of the population of the US in 2020. Now 36% would support him. I realize the two numbers aren’t directly comparable because only 67% of the people who could vote in 2020 did (and that was the highest it has been since 1980), but it’s still not a great feeling.
Other way to read this headline:
36% of Americans are equal parts moronic and clinically insane

Yep we need mental health funding. It’s still a ridiculous % given how crappy our voting system is.
Fucking psychopaths
I feel like ~1 in 3 people being selfish assholes kind of checks out, though. It’s a trend I really noticed during Covid.
