Like many of DJT's supporters, you don't seem to understand things you should have learned in secondary school:
a MAJORITY means "more than one-half (50%)"
a PLURALITY means "less than one-half, but the largest number"
A) 2016
DJT LOST the popular vote in 2016; a MAJORITY of Americans voted AGAINST him:
_____________DJT______________HRC
Popular vote_62,984,828[2]____65,853,514[2]
Percentage__46.1%[2]_________48.2%[2]
(See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_United_States_presidential_election)
HRC WON a PLURALITY of the popular vote, with 2.1% more of the voters selecting her rather than DJT.
B) 2024
DJT WON by a PLURALITY of the popular vote in 2024; a majority of voters did NOT vote for him, and only 1.5% more of all voters chose him over KDH:
_____________DJT______________KDH
Popular vote_77,302,580[2]____75,017,613[2]
Percentage__49.8%[2]_________48.3%[2]

Buyer's remorse for some, and no, merely 1/4 of the Americans voted for him. 3/4 did not.

He won a tiny plurality from the population who voted, which was a low voter turn out.
He has constantly violated the Constitution.
His approval rating is terrible.
You may ask for a president who violates their oath and has a terrible approval rating to step down.

No, a majority of Americans did NOT vote for DJT.
And even those who did can be appalled at his actions in destroying the Constitution.

The same thing it says when voters in democracies everywhere make an effort to keep their democratically elected politicians honest

@Jokersswild the election may have been free and fair, but it’s likely to be the last free and fair election for a very long time.
Trump is doing all he can to dismantle America’s democratic institutions; hence, the protests.
