It was more like 12 million lol. Also imo you'd expect all of the people who were too racist/misogynist to vote for Harris to flip to Trump (how many are going to go to Jill Stein?), and he only gained ~3 million, so that's 9 million people who just stayed home.

Obviously this is cope about how a combination of support for genocide abroad and neoliberal policies at home likely cost them the election.

The initial returns were low, but Harris got 75 million on the final tally out of 152 million final votes vs 2020 when Biden got 81 million votes out of 155 million.

So there was a drop off but it's not as a big as it was initially reported.

Good to know, thanks for the correction.
