There are over 75 million people who voted for Biden.
If you prefer, you can rephrase as “there are 75 million people who voted against Trump.”Or, if you prefer, you can rephrase as Biden refers to 48.2% of the voters in this country as chumps.
Unity!

There is no such thing as a unifier in politics. So if anybody ever tells you that their favorite politician is more of a unifier than yours, you can go ahead and tell them that they are full of shit.
You know, that's a pretty profound comment. It's all about winning.
As Jolly frequently says, "Politics ain't beanbag."

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

So sad, if you have had any hope for a unifying politician at all, it seems Trump completely purged that out of you in the last four years.
Perk up. So what if your preferred candidate lost this time around. You know the winner is not that bad, don’t you?

The DNC will have to face this fact during the next four years and rebuild itself as a firmly moderate centrist party if it ever hopes to compete with its opposite number in years to come. I am optimistic that if nothing else this election has laid bare that fact to the DNC and that it will work to erase the damaging effects that the Jacobins in its midst have and are causing.
From your lips to God's ear. Taking the long view, it's my more simple-minded impression that the Democratic Party has distinguished itself of late mostly through dumbassery.
The Republican Party also has work to do. They enabled Trump. They had a chance early on to distance themselves from the crazy assclown and do a solid for America, and they chose to take the coward's way out. By the time they realized they were stuck fast to the Trump tarbaby, they had nowhere to go. Then the love affair began to discorporate around the trial, when it was really too late, followed by endless waffling. So a pox on them, too.
Rick Wilson in his book Everything Trump Touches Dies talks about this very well -- the nature of the damage the GOP has done to itself through Trump and how it can resurrect itself with the American people.
I fear neither party is in a good place to repair themselves, which is really too bad.

Listen , oh TDS sufferer. The Man got more votes than any other presidential candidate in history. Without fraud, that is.
He got record numbers of black men. He took the majority of the native American vote. He got a much higher percentage of Latino votes than any GOP candidate in recent memory.
And you want to walk away from that?
Are you head-banging stupid? Even with his impolite personality, you take COVID and its effect out of the equation and Trump would have slaughtered Biden. Trump ran into a perfect storm, that he failed to navigate well. He also ran into the most fraudulent/fucked up election in the last 100 years or more.
The next person that thinks millions of mail-in ballots is a good idea - even in the middle of an epidemic - should be pithed and left to die in a road ditch, while the crows pick his eyes out.

There are over 75 million people who voted for Biden.

I agree. They have to come to terms with the fact that under Trump, the Republican Party ceased to the voice of conservatism. Trump is not and has never been a conservative. Now is a perfect opportunity for Burkian conservative Republicans to reclaim their party from the Trumpian reactionaries.

yeah it's difficult to be less impressed by someone who not only doesn't live in the country but doesn't post here in any consistent manner. If you want people to take you seriously you should probably broaden your portfolio of motivations for writing something to them.
