Continued vote counting on the West Coast has resulted in Trump falling below 50% of votes cast and is not yet finished.

So he lost the popular vote once again?
He still is ahead of Kamala by about 2% or 2.5 million votes. Before he was ahead of Kamala + Claudia + Chase + Cornell + Jill + Vermin Supreme + Elmo.
It’s still a closer gap than he lost to Biden by by a lot. But it is also super clear that Harris managed to do worse in this environment than Hillary did in 2016 back when Trump was an unknown crazy person instead of the well known crazy shill for hire.
The voter suppression wasn’t as rampant in 2016 as it was this year.
Well only when compared with the other candidates combined together. He still got more votes than Harris.
