ig but the meme is about Americans voting against their best interests, and the point is that a majority of them did in enough of the country such that the election came down to a single state.
It’s just wild to see people always putting 100% of the blame on the SC and not realizing Americans are also just really incredibly awful at selecting their leaders. In a sane and just world, the 2000 election would not have even been close.
