Donald Trump keeps saying that he got more votes by far than any sitting president in the history of our country. I know that sounds good but it doesn’t mean much when you lose by 7,o52,770 votes. Let’s do some math. That is more than the entire population of Ireland, plus the entire population of Nebraska combined. Plus a completely sold out stadium in Ann Arbor, plus everyone who works at a Burger King in America, plus every person that an average American will meet in their entire life, plus every major league baseball player and NBA player, plus a Southwest flight at maximum capacity. And throw in every person to date who’s got Monkey Pox in Indiana and there’s still six people left over. That’s the entire Allman Brothers band. That’s how many people Donald Trump lost by. —Al Franken
Checking the math:
Population of Ireland 4,937,786
Population of Nebraska 1,961,504
Michigan Stadium at capacity 107,601
Burger King employees 34,248
People you’ll meet in lifetime 10,000
MLB players 906
NBA players 450
Southwest plane capacity 189
Indiana Monkeypox cases 80
Allman Brothers Band 6
Total: 7,052,770
