I thought I would share a quick data visualization I used ChatGPT to create for me. It depicts the percentage of Trump voters as part of the population of the United States.

He did not even receive a majority of votes cast during the 2024 election.
I am sharing this for all of my friends outside of the United States. We are not all crazy psychopaths here in America.

Why in the world would we terminate funding for Polio, H.I.V., Malaria, and nutrition programs? We gain absolutely nothing by doing this, and we make our own citizens less safe by making the world less safe. It’s so insanely stupid. www.nytimes.com

Seriously, folks. He is equating a green card to an American Express Green Card and thinking it would be awesome to have a gold card because American Express has one. This is where we are at here in America, and it sounds crazy because it is. www.nytimes.com
