AZ + NV + NC + WI = 43 electoral votes. That difference would have been the nightmare scenario of a 269-269 tie in the 2024 election.
It's only too bad that was the last safe, free and fair election we're ever going to get. Also, I think you overestimate the general populace's concern with biomedical research (though ever little bit could've helped overcome the 2.3% Trump won the whole thing with)
except for all the voter suppression by Republicans
And the ballot generation scripts authored by Musks people.
Guarantee you that Joe Average would quickly feel the knock-on effects of destroying hospitals and universities.
A MILLION fucking Americans died, bad, chocking on their own fluids, unable to see or touch their loved one's as they passed, due to a mismanaged, purposefully inept Federal Global Pandemic response the last time Donald Trump was President, the outsized percentage were MAGA voters, their loved ones just put Donald Trump back in the White House, Democrats couldn't be bothered to vote in large enough numbers to counter them even having lost an almost equal amount of Mothers, Fathers, Sister, Brothers, Uncles, Aunts, Cousins, Friends, Coworkers to Trump direct scientific and medical ineptitude. I don't have to guarantee you anything about the "average american joe", they proved it on their own on November 6th.
And blame it on whomever Fox news told him to blame. Democrats, trans people, Mexicans, take your pick.
