70% of the popular vote is impossible.
Reagan won the electoral vote 535-3 in 1984.
He won the popular vote 54%-40% (rounded). That was the biggest landslide of the modern era.
Thank you. No way Trump did better than Reagan in 1984.
But I think your numbers are wrong. Reagan did not win 54%-40%. It was more like 59-41. The third parties did not get that many votes.
Reagan was more liked than Trump. Since there was no Twitter, he didn’t scare snowflakes and Karens and their soyboy husbands with his tweets.
It was a different country then. People then would never have put up with stories being read to little kids in libraries by transvestites.
Too many people have drunk too much Flavor-Aid.
