When did a US presidential candidate ever get 65% of the vote.

Not in modern times, and such would be unlikely to ever happen. If it did, it would be a sweep or near-sweep of the Electoral College.

I need to see real numbers from the French electoral commission before I can really call it though. Those numbers look so fishy.

Also the regional braekdown will be one worth seeing. Did Macron win it on the backs of Paris? If France minus Paris went for Le Pen (or at least split) then the urban-rural split is enormous still.

The next Dem that takes the WH will win with 100% of the vote ...

Never. Largest % was Johnson vs. Goldwater with 61.05%.
