73.6% of the citizen voting-age population was registered to vote 174 million, 65.3% voted. 154 million. Census.gov
About 231 million people could have voted.
77.3/231= 33.4% or 1/3
To put it in perspective if you walked up to an American adult that could have voted in 2024. You are twice as likely to hear that they didn’t vote for trump or didn’t vote than they voted for trump.
And that’s just as a percentage of registered voters. Compared to a total percentage of the population it’s more like a fifth of people who voted for Trump. It really is a small minority and a broken electoral system that got us into this mess.
And that’s just as a percentage of registered voters
The 33.4% is out of every 18+ adult in America that has registered or could register to vote.
174 million are registered
57 million are unregistered
231 million total.
77.3/231=33.4%
340.1 million Americans in 2024
77.3/340.1=22.7%
So 22.7% of total Americans voted for trump. But that’s counting babies, children, and young adults.
Also trump won the popular vote in 2024 so the electoral system wasn’t the cause. Rigged or poor system yes but he would have won without the electoral college.
Correct, and even worse for Donald, the only good news he’s gotten in elections has been primaries for the past two years. Candidates he backed have lost nearly every election in 2025 and 2026, and this has occurred in both red and blue states, and mostly in areas he won by double digits in 2024.
Consider that Republicans literally stopped gerrymandering because Donald has pissed off so many voters they can’t accurately predict where they have any electoral strength anymore.
He is indisputably among the most hated presidents of all time.
Even that radically over estimate’s his popularity since a large portion of those voters would vote for any republican against a democrat.
It’s really important to remember that America isn’t a democracy. We don’t have ranked voting or a lottery option – The voters don’t have a functional ‘none of the above’ option. Add to that the lack of a recall mechanism or randomized districting, and it’s pretty easy for a coordinated elite to install someone widely disliked for long periods of time.
And there is no way to know what the people who didn’t vote in think of them. We cannot assume that they all disagree with him or would consider him the worst.
That’s a fair assessment, but do remember the amount of people who abstained from voting because of gaza and how Kamala was going to be somehow worse than the turnip.
A little less than 1/3rd voted for him.

If they didn’t vote they were happy enough for him to become president.
Yep. Basically a minority got us into this mess.

Disapproval ratings aren’t based on vote counts.
No, but I think it’s a reasonable inference that someone who voted for him might not disapprove, let alone call him the worst of all time.
