If you want to be technical a true democracy is mathematically impossible. Also Donald won the popular vote this time. Don’t waste 4 years of your life chasing conspiracy theories like the right has and clinging to a fantasy that the loser actually won. I wish things were different but that’s how it went.
In a race with more than 2 people it shouldn’t be uncommon to have less than 50% of the overall vote and still win. I don’t understand the point you’re trying to make. In this race he got the most votes compared to the other candidates.
Many countries use variations of runoff voting, where if no candidate gets a majority then the top two candidates move on to a second round and the other candidates are eliminated. This is actually the most popular way to run elections worldwide.

He didn’t get a majority of the votes. Less than 50%. That should mean something.

I’m aware but even assuming all of the non trump votes would go to Kamala, she still wouldn’t have won in this case.
He got less than 50% of the vote. If you add all the non Trump votes together you get more than 50% of the vote.
