@MeanwhileinCanada roughly 1/5th, actually.

Only 140 million people voted of 340 million people (though, to be clear, not every one of the 340 million is eligible to vote), and of them roughly half (about 70 million) voted for trump (and, by extension, musk).

Of course, that means that there are 70 million people walking around who think that healthcare is for quitters and _any day now_ they're going to become rich.

@b4ux1t3
I honestly don't think the group of people that expect to get rich is that large. Most of that 70 million actually (at least for now) have access to suitable health care and don't have the ability to put themselves in other's shoes to empathize with them. It's a campaign of fear that keeps them where they are more so than dreams of rewards.

It honestly comes down to fear propaganda (mainly on social media) that keeps them in their right-wing echo chamber.
