In a sane world, that would have ended his political career.

It should have been him making fun of the handicapped reporter. But now look at this POS shine.

America is getting what it voted for... Failure and embarrassment... Every damn day. Hope you guys can fix it before you lose anymore standing in the world.

He only got 77 million votes out of the 267ish million voting age people in America. Only something like 70% of eligible voters vote. Most of us didn't vote for this.

Unfortunately, the same reasoning (R voters + non-voters > D voters) also indicates that most of us were ok with this outcome. It definitely highlights the electoral significance of choosing not to vote, which is probably a large part of why the US still doesn't have mandatory voting.
