They would rather vote for a smashed avocado than a dem. Even if jesus christ himself turned up and ran as a dem they wouldnt vote for him, or her.

That's because he or she is black.

No doubt there will be researches/analyses, to try to explain the reason to behave as such, among a so important number of people.

Trump won more votes the last election than in 2016. 
 

why is that so?

Pretty simple answer. Because both sides drove out considerably more voters than in 2016.

So could the skin colour of the vice president elect be the reason why Trump got so many votes?

Guaranteed.  One big reason Trump got elected was Obama.  Most white Americans couldn't stand the site of a black man as president.  Hard core racists.  As you know, his support is among rural, white, uneducated males.

Biden will be president on Jan 20.  Time to move on.  That big meany Trump can't hurt you anymore.

Don't you mean the dangerously deranged spiteful trump?

He remains in office and can cause further chaos, irrespective of his words about a peaceful transition, too little too late, and from a proven liar.

I note he made no comment about the 5 deaths at insurrection he called for.

Will he personally pay for the damage caused by the supporters he emboldened with his hateful nature?

And to all of my wonderful supporters, I know you are disappointed, but I also want you to know that our incredible journey is only just beginning. Thank you, god bless you and god bless America.

 

What exactly did he mean by that, was it part of the speech (that was obviously not his own words) or did he go off script at the end?

Trump got the second highest vote ever even though he lost. He got more votes after being in power for four years. 
Why is he so popular with so many Americans? 

He got more votes, because more people overall voted, it was the "Hilary" effect, they hated trump more than than hated Biden, so he got higher votes than in 2016, but the Dems came out in greater numbers to ensure that anyone other than trump was voted in.

He may be deciding to build trumpville in the everglades, then buy in green cool aid for evening beverages with the syncophants.

And the gender too. Still, he would have gotten most of those votes anyway, I think.

I am no fan of Trump, mainly because he doesn’t pay his contractors for work completed and then offers them cents in the dollar but only if they sign a confidentiality clause. That was long before the people voted him as President. 
 

Many people have far more reasons to dislike Trump.

OMG, are you kidding me? In Australia, Biden and Harris would be regarded as a bit right of centre. FYI, the Communist Party in Australia was disbanded 30 years ago due to lack of numbers and interest.

Typical American paranoia, you don't realize your American military operates with a structure any socialist government would be proud to own.

All these Americans that go feral about socialism and communism, when they don't even know what either is. Talk about brainwashed.

Or the women he has molested, the military he dodged and then demeaned, the law enforcement agencies he gutted... the list goes on for quite a while.

He called Harris a "nasty woman". Could be after January 20 he's going to find out how nasty she can be.

Popular with his wealthy sycophants and with the great unwashed rubes. You only had to look at a sample of those who stormed the building and bragged about it afterwards, to know that they are not the sharpest knives in the drawer....and some!

Some longtime advisers are steering clear of talking to Trump after he fired up hundreds of supporters who swarmed the U.S. Capitol in what even fellow Republicans called a deep stain on Trump's legacy.

 

What legacy?  He is without question the worst possible president for the USA.  I never dreamed anyone could be more corrupt than Nixon but the Republicans have again exceeded expectations.  We now know beyond a shadow of doubt that anyone who supports these traitors is also living in a world of delusion.

I trust that this insurrection spurred on by him is the last of his nasty legacies. Remember he still has 10 days to go, and he is still Commander in Chief and has had nuclear facilities in Iran in his sights, hope the Services Commanders can keep him in check

And unfortunately he still has the power to pardon whoever he likes, his family and himself for whatever.

Yes he will pardon himself but legally if he is ever charged federally that will probably prove to be worthless.

Never trust this president even if he has only 5 minutes left in power. He always gets worse. If he calms down now it will only be out of self interest to try to act like he's reformed to avoid prison.
