The Canadian government has insisted that information on domestic goods is readily available to all trading partners, even including nations that recently elected a felony-convicted game show host to be their head of state. Instead, the United States has decided to employ a rarely-chosen trade tactic that international economists refer to as the “fuck around and find out” model.

I mean, if there was some type of legitimate rigging of the election in PA or whatever Trump was referring to with Elon being smart with computers (or whatever that was), then you'd be correct. However, if we're to assume the outcome of the votes is 100% legitimate, then Americans did in fact vote for this based on the outcome. It's not meant to include every individual vote, just the outcome of the whole.
