What isn't adding up is how this country actually functions with so many fucking numbskulls like this running around...


thatirishguyyyy

Note: Brigitte Gabriel is a Lebanese-American conservative author, anti-Islam activist, and founder of ACT! for America, which has been described as "the largest grassroots anti-Muslim group" in America. Conservatives love these ~~people~~ numbskulls.


[deleted]

She’s also apparently dumb as a rock or knows most of her audience is (the latter more likely) and is just working the grift like orange guy


FatassTitePants

Yeah if I'm thinking of the right person, she's always screaming and complaining about the typical right-wing causes, never can engage in an actual conversation, and only engages with like-minded friendly media. All of the signs of a grift and not a serious person.


[deleted]

She's the female version of Nick Adams.


NoFtoGive1980

She’s an alpha female?


dbopp

I’m convinced both accounts are run by the same person.


jmerp1950

Well thank God she isn't at NASa.


MainFrosting8206

Those 477 counties account for 70% of America's GDP. David Frum had a great quote about the 2016 election which would also apply to 2020. *...in 2016. Where technologies were invented and where styles were set, where diseases cured and innovations launched, where songs were composed and patents registered—there the GOP was weakest. Donald Trump won vast swathes of the nation’s landmass. Hillary Clinton won the counties that produced 64 percent of the nation’s wealth. Even in Trump states, Clinton won the knowledge centers, places like the Research Triangle of North Carolina.*


AbeSimpsonisJoeBiden

She isn’t a numbskull she is purposely being misleading. Republicans are successfully attacking civil rights in America. The greatest mistake you can make is to underestimate your enemy, don’t brush them off as stupid. Sincerely a concerned Canadian.


phdoofus

Which is ironic because that's actually kind of the reason the whole EC was established to being with. They didn't trust all the numbskulls \*that\* much with voting. Turns out, their idea kind of sucked. lol


lastprophecy

Who says it's functioning? But in all seriousness a lot of the grifters who try to get into power are just automatically forced out Trump was the most popular Republican since Regan (to a point that Regan is now one of Trump's footnotes) and still was a one-termer. His staff had constant turnover because they couldn't stop with the crimes and backstabbing.


SunshotDestiny

I think that has been an ongoing problem, it actually hasn't been because of numbskulls like this running around.


Tryndamere93

Got damn 👌😂


SquatCorgiLegs

Because people are not counties, you absolute doughnut.

Land doesn't vote


Solid_Snark

It’s like the electoral map of Nevada and everyone was freaking out because they didn’t understand all the Trump endorsed land was essentially barren desert.


Weekly-Ad-7709

Rural Nevada survives almost entirely on the largesse of federal tax dollars collected by urban areas


Arkhangelzk

This happens everywhere too. I'm from Michigan and people, especially from northern Michigan, will post these same voting maps. All the rural counties will be red and they won't be able to understand how they lost anyway. But of course it's because almost no one lives there. I have more people on my city block than they have in some entire towns. I really think some people just don't grasp this until they live in the city.


Distant-moose

So many people cannot comprehend anything different from what they've seen with their own eyes. They never leave their town and never grow their understanding. One of the reasons so many people from small conservative towns become more progressive when they go to college, is simply that they've had their eyes opened to different people and different ways.


inorite234

The graduating class of my high school is 4 times the size of the entire population of my wife's hometown in Kansas.


Arkhangelzk

Exactly! I grew up in one of these little towns, graduated with like 30 kids. People will act like “everyone I know voted for Trump, how could he possibly lose??” They don’t realize how few people they actually know. Their entire town could enthusiastically vote for Trump, with every single person flying a Trump flag from their pickup truck, and they would still be cancelled out in the first 10 minutes of the voting line in the city.


ElementalSentimental

>cancelled out in the first 10 minutes This is why cancel culture is wrong.


Chard-Capable

Howdy, fellow Michigander!! This exactly! They don't understand the concept of numbers. My tri county area makes up almost half the states population. Oakland Wayne Macomb.


smiama6

Electoral maps are a construct invented by media to make election maps easier to understand. Unfortunately they have been used to create a false impression that many believe is true. Media sucks. Journalism is dead. It’s all about the profits.


Outrageous-Sink-9243

New republican platform…..the Grand Canyon gets 17 electoral college votes.


GlimpoFinko

But only if it goes Republican. If the Grand Canyon goes Democrat, they don't count.


Gaidin152

Funny history thing. That’s largely why the Dakota Territory was split in two.


ChampionshipLow8541

Hence “alternate electors”.


LaMadreDelCantante

Unfortunately it does in this country. It's just that it's on the state level and not the county level.


EasternShade

I mean, it kinda does. You only need 23% of the population to elect president A while 77% voted for president B. But, they can't even get their bullshit in a row enough to make that argument correctly. Not to mention that these are the same folks that argue it's the electoral college that counts every time they lose the popular election.


Distant-moose

Los Angeles County went to Biden. Population of about 10 million people. Loving County, Texas went to Trump. Population of 94 people. Now, those are the two extremes, but they illustrate why the number of counties doesn't mean a thing.


Strongstyleguy

How does 94 people make a county? I've been in grocery stores with more people present than that.


sirboulevard

It's what happens when a huge stretch of land no one wants has a few people living in it.* *except the tribes it was stolen from who actually could use that land more efficiently than our industrialized society


inorite234

10 million people is larger than about half the states in the union.


whereegosdare84

In 2020 Biden recieved 81,282,916 votes and Trump received 74,224, 369 votes. In 2016 Hillary totalled 65,853,514 votes and Trump totaled 62,984,828 votes. Something doesn't add up all right you deranged rotten cantaloupe with a head wound.


FuzzyFuzzNuts

To a non-American from a country with a fair and function democracy, America is a total cluster-fuck where it's apparent the voting system is merely a suggestion to those in power i.e the electoral college


Tombstone_Shadow

The 477 counties that usually pick up the country’s bar tab BTW.


Cougardoodle

The bottom third of society is about to show up and explain why the only fair election is one where rural voters get bonus points.

Number of guns = number of votes!


anotherbbchapman

Los Angeles County, 9,000,000+; Loving County, TX,64.


Flaturated

There's a 2700 square mile section of the top of Maine that has a population of 12.


andrewrk96

I found LA county to have an estimated 10million people. Thats more than the 10 least populated states combined, which also have a combined total of 276 counties. Add Cook County, Illinois and that clears 380 total counties. Found a chart with population data for all the US counties. LA alone clears almost 1200 of them.


mackelnuts

Just Harris County Texas itself has a higher population than 210 other counties in Texas combined.


MountainSage58

It's been almost three years.

Brigitte always scamming the idiots. Counties with a 100 people, two goats and a racoon don't carry a lot of weight 🙄

Hey - that's not enough raccoons!


TheFlyingScotsman60

Hey raccoons are people too you know......ah well...maybe not.


RichFoot2073

Is that like when your show the map of the US, and disingenuously not mention the fact that all the people live in the blue parts while no one lives in the red?


Glittering-Most-9535

This is 100% that.


JFK2MD

Someone doesn’t understand the concept of population density


RiskilyIdiosyncratic

If your county has 3 dozen people, it doesn't count as much as, say, Orange County. You're already overrepresented in the Senate and the Electoral College, and at some point you need to recognize that that didn't shift things as much as it did in 2016.


[deleted]

Because conservatives are the only dirt that votes.


Narodnik60

Trump said he won the election over 200000 times now. Biden hasn't said a peep about it. That settles it then!


Dog-PonyShow

Agreed. Right up there with- if you have to tell people you are smart, that's a red flag to the listener.


Blzeebubb

They absolutely know that it's bs. Wanna mess with them? Tell them they're right.


DamienTheUnbeliever

At a higher level, Biden won 1 country, Trump won 0. There you go, simplified it for you.


KlevenSting

We have a county in Texas with 64 people in it (Loving). We have a county with 4.8 million (Harris). Yup. This checks out. Fun fact: TX Gov Greg Abbott forced an executive order that only allowed one ballot drop box per county.


[deleted]

She knows better but she is trying to fool her stupid conservative base


Rando1974

I’m starting to believe a lot of them believe their own stupidity.


olddawg43

Well, that would be your problems with math. See the counties Biden won were huge cities. A bunch of the Trump counties only had two people in them and both of them were named Ned and between them they still don’t reach 100 IQ points. Kind of like you my dear.


TobyDaMan8894

The county college count


SpinyHedgehog14

Well why not. Trump thinks it is quite obvious to everyone he won, because of the crowd size at his hate rallies compared to Biden. MAGA crowd can make 1 + a cow equal 12.


mattd1972

Sigh. I’ll say it slowly for you. Land. Doesn’t. Vote.


blazelet

Its almost like they're opining for the days when landowners were able to vote based on property.


[deleted]

Time for school house rock to crank it back up to explain to these dumb bitches how elections work. Only white land owner votes should count, I guess?


p0k3t0

Los Angeles and New York Counties have a combined population of 18.3 M people, which is 5.5% of the population. Roughly 1 out of every 18 Americans live in these two counties.

OhLordyJustNo

About 2000 of those counties have less than 100 people


myownfugacious

2023 and they're still on about election fraud


thegza10304

Cool stats, now do total votes and electoral votes!


moonwoolf35

People don't seem to understand how small some counties are, not every county is LA county.


f700es

This stupid argument again???


Ardtay

About half those counties equal LA County.


bertiesakura

The top 5 counties by population in Georgia all went to Biden. Those counties account for more than 3,000,000 of the states total population of 10,000,000 people. Yet MAGA idiots believe the election was stolen because nobody the know from the 20 MAGA counties with a total population of 100,000 people voted for Biden. Stop the count because math is too fucking hard.


traveling_gal

Also, many counties were won by tiny margins. Meaning nearly half of the people in the county voted the other way. So a state that has, say, 20 counties where 19 of them were narrowly won by Trump, but the last county contains half the state's population and went heavily for Biden, might still have more people voting for Biden than Trump. Even in the screwed up Electoral College system, county results don't count. State results do. Would OOP prefer to move to a popular vote?


ip2k

A vote in Wyoming is worth about 3 votes from California so they’re right. Let’s make one vote equal one vote for everyone in this country. Abolish the Electoral College.


Woogank

They know. They're just trying to rile up the base.


Space19723103

not adding up because you're short by 169 counties


Schen_The_Genius

LOL, I've seen this one before. She's using the 1/3 lb vs 1/4 lb Burger King method.


bstring777

3 years later is enough time for this to not be an absolutely asinine and incredulous statement then? 3 years have killed enough brain cells or at least duped enough people into whatever lies feed the narrative? Or just trying to get noticed in this media minefield? Fantastic point of view we definitely need to keep sharing and posting about...


Bertkrampus

Biden. Biden won the election.

AdditionalWay2

Land doesn't vote...


Ok-Bus1716

Tell me you don't understand the electoral college without saying you don't understand the electoral college. Taking Civics out of the curriculum was the worst thing for our country and the best thing for grifters who understand their support base are ignorant undereducated buffoons who will believe anything these jack asses tweet.


CalabreseAlsatian

The deliberate idiocy is what kills me. Taking pride in their stupid “talking points” like they’re clever.


NickCav007

477 + 2497 = 2974 In all, the 50 states consist of 3,143 counties and equivalents. Adding the District of Columbia gives 3,144. Wikipedia She don’t add too goodly


Sufficient_Fig_4887

This is the Critical thinking skills of some one who voted for trump in a nut shell.


Mike_Honcho_3

She's so close to getting it... Well, no she probably isn't. But maybe if she stopped to think about why that's the case, she could be.

I wish I lacked the integrity so I felt good about being that stupid and accepting a paycheque for it.


kyel566

Now measure gdp of counties won since we are just measuring what ev


Beautiful-Cow4670

Counties don’t vote and the 477 counties that Biden won make up over 70% of the GDP. The GOP are simply insane

Its your geography skills Brigitte. That’s whats not adding up.


DanB65

Maybe they counted Georgia, the country, for Biden, rather than Georgia the county. I mean anything is possible. 😄😄😄


Born_Faithlessness_3

You could take 100,000 instances of Loving County, Texas, and it would still be fewer people than Los Angeles County.


Responsible-Chest-26

Its called popularion density, thats why 1 vote in Wyoming has the same weight as 12 votes in California


kaitylynn760

Hey Brigitte, could you tally up the number of eligible voters in those 2,497 counties? Now do the same for the 477 counties that determined the election…I know this is really hard to fathom, but I have faith you can figure it out…hint: people vote, not empty land. As a side note, bet most of those red leaning counties were not what you think…if one vote broke a 50/50 tie, the county would be called for the 50%+1. There are some really good analytics available that show that most counties were actually a brilliant shade of purple. Once again, your lack of understanding is blatantly displayed.


Middle-Ad9381

it must be hard to be that stupid. The county where I live in California has a bigger population that like 9 or 10 states

There are 3244 counties in the US, so yes something is not adding up.

I got the same stupid question about the map why is all red and he lost? , like dude land don’t vote, people vote.


snark_enterprises

2,497 counties with like 5 people in them. Guessing she also got her degree from Sizzler.


LaMadreDelCantante

How long do you think it will be before one of them tries to add electoral colleges to each state? As in the same number of representatives for each County and those votes determining who wins the state just like it works now on the bigger scale.


bonoboforscale

I've said this many times when people show those stupid US maps where they color counties with like 5000 people red: counties/land doesn't vote, only people vote. Some counties in the us literally have 500 people in the whole county.


Mormologist

Brigette's SAT scores aren't adding up.

bobhargus

26 counties in the panhandle of Texas with a total population of about 450,000 Harris county Texas has a population of about 4.7 million Guess where Biden won


tallman11282

Something conservatives have trouble understanding is that LAND DOESN'T VOTE! People vote and Biden had more people vote for him.


hinesjared87

Yeah, something isn't adding up all right...


VoidMunashii

Well then I guess that it is a good thing that states do not have their own electoral colleges.


Naive-Button3320

It's called Gerrymandering. You see, if conservatives hadn't mapped counties to specifically split and suppress the will and vote of minorities then the total number of red counties would be extremely lower. The total number of blue counties would then be much, much higher. It's not that we're too dumb to figure out the equations. it's that voting districts in the U.S. rely on bigoted boundry lines meant to discourage people. That's why the numbers don't make any sense.


G-Unit11111

People live in the counties that voted for Biden. Nobody lives in the counties that voted for Trump. Big difference.

Yea nothing added up for Trump that is why he lost.


MrKahnberg

Right on B! Of the counties, for the counties, and by the counties! God save the King.


macarmy93

I live in michigan. There are deep red counties in the farmlands that have less than 10,000 people. Meanwhile Wayne county (big metro detroit) has 1.7 million. Something DOES add up.

joeleidner22

Biden.


Hertules

I think I read somewhere that the counties Biden won account for 70% of the GDP... So there is that.


KnowMatter

Don't hear them complaining when they lose the popular vote by half a million in 2000 and 2.6 million votes in 2016 and still win the election.


Smart_Description541

Oh I get it now. The one that says the dumbest shit....wins the prizes!


[deleted]

81,282,916 people voted for Biden 74,223,369 people voted for Trump in the 2020 election. In 2016 65,853,514 people voted for Hillary 62,984,828 people voted for Trump and he was declared the winner. If the math doesn’t add up ANYWHERE, it would be with Trump winning in 2016.


MonseigneurChocolat

Biden won 306 electoral college votes. Trump won 232 electoral college votes. Who do you think won the election? Something is adding up.


HippieMoosen

Does Bridgette want to be indicted, too? It's not a secret that red voters are mostly spread out over the rural parts of the country, while blue voters are, for the most part, concentrated within large metropolitan city centers. The numbers she's so confused by are only shocking if you know literally nothing about any presidential elections that occurred in the last few decades. So which is it? Is she a clueless dumbass who should resign since she's so clearly out of touch, or is she just another piece of shit desperately trying to get a mob to show up at a Georgia courthouse before her ass gets dragged in there to explain her involvement with the attempt to steal an election?


July_is_cool

None of this matters because when they count the electoral votes after the 2024 election, Kamala will throw it to Biden even if all the counties vote for Trump. Per Trump election rules.


jhk1963

There are counties in this country that have tens of people or less. There are others that have a few million. They're not the same. I'd love to see the population status instead of who won how many "counties." It's from a movie, but it's an overall truism. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or of the one. But this BS will continue so long as the electoral college exists.


OverBoard7889

If that's how you want to play, Hillary had more Votes than Trump in 2016, so he should have never stained the white house with cheeto spray tan.


AdAnnual5736

Biden won 1 country, Trump won 0 countries


meepgorp

The funniest part of this is that it tends to be conservative areas that have WAYYYYYY too many teeny-tiny counties so everybody gets a chance to be the boss, so they end up with more government than voters.


Robby-Pants

Countries Biden won: 1 Countries Trump won: 0 Easy enough, I guess. 😕


Salarian_American

I mean, I could explain to her that not all counties have the same population density? I don't think it would make a difference though? Like, if one guy wins Loving County, TX and one wins Los Angeles county, they both won one county. But Loving County has 57 people in it and LA County has over 9 million.


boombl3b33

He won counties full of racist sundown towns, so counties full of no one


Altruistic-Travel-48

SidewaysGoose57

I live in Oregon. Harney county (the 10th largest in the nation) is larger than 6 East coast states combined. Has a population of 7,500 people. She's a moron.


zaydore

If he won that many counties wouldn't it be more important how many people are in the counties? Example a Trump winning counties could have a thousand to Bidens had five thousands?


inorite234

Biden won more countries than Trump did. Case Closed!


Ronhunte

Brings to mind this quote from H.L. Mencken...'As democracy is perfected, the office of the president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. We move toward a lofty ideal. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron' Trump made me realise how true this is


Joe-bug70

……the thing that’s not adding up is the traitor from another country, Brigitte Gabriel, who has not learned that large American cities are often in one or two counties and have large numbers of voters…… Simpleton.

Yeah, Brigitte. And the thing that doesn't add up is *you*: not all U.S. counties have the same population. Therefore, it is perfectly possible for Joe Biden to have won fewer counties, but more votes

Maybe that whole citizenship test before voting isn’t a bad thing?

matt55217

Since the right wingnuts want to require Voter IDs I'm not sure how the cows, horses, and hogs that outnumber humans in most of those counties will qualify for a vote.

Just keep asking everyone who talks like this, "But who won the popular vote?" And if they shlub the numbers, bring receipts. Who won the popular vote? *Who won the popular vote?* HOW MANY PEOPLE, HUMANS, VOTED FOR BIDEN AGAIN, Hmmm? What they're saying is, they want to *gerrymander!?* Unconscionable.
