This is not true.

  • 75,019,230 (48.34% of the electorate) voted Harris
  • 77,303,568 (49.81% of the electorate) voted Trump
  • 2,878,359 (1.85% of the electorate) voted for a third party candidate

A plurality of the electorate voted for this administration, not a majority.

In the 2024 presidential election, 73.6% (or 174 million people) of the citizen voting-age population was registered to vote and 65.3% (or 154 million people) voted according to new voting and registration tables released today by the U.S. Census Bureau.

https://www.census.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2025/2024-presidential-election-voting-registration-tables.html

So of the 238 million voting age citizens, 77 million (32% of the voting age citizens) voted for this administration
