Prince Harry had sweets sent to bereaved military children on Remembrance Sunday
Prince Harry is the global ambassador of the charity Scotty's Little Soldiers. The charity's founder Nikki Scott - a widow who lost her husband Corporal Lee Scott in the war in Afghanistan in 2009 - launched the non-profit in 2010 to help children left devastated by the loss of their parents at war.
She said of Harry's involvement with Scotty's Little Soldiers: "He's very much in contact. He sent the children sweets today as well.
"They all have sweets in their pockets from Prince Harry."
Some of the missing 11 million votes will most likely "appear" when Western states, especially California, finally finish counting their votes.
Still, the turnout in the 2020 election was enormous. Undoubtedly some of the missing 11 million votes were due to people who made an effort to vote in 2020 deciding to sit out the 2024 election--for all the reasons mentioned below.
The Creation of an Alternate Reality
In the years since 2020, Fox News, and other right-wing media have worked hard to create an alternate reality that influenced many people to vote for Trump, and many others who voted in 2020 for Biden, not to bother voting this time.
LIES AND HALF-TRUTHS CHANGED THE PERCEPTIONS OF TWO PRESIDENCIES. Since 2020, Fox News and the right-wing media have spread lies and half-truths to convince many Americans that Trump was a much better president than he actually was. They also convinced many Americans that the Biden-Harris administration was much worse than it actually was.
To put into perspective just how distorted these impressions of the two presidencies have become, compare them to how prominent presidential historians ranked Biden as the 14th best president and Trump as the worst president in U.S. history.
So how did the right-wing media convince so many Americans that Trump was a better president that Biden?
RIGHT-WING MEDIA "REWROTE" TRUMP'S FIRST TERM: Fox News and right-wing media created an alternate reality where Trump's first term was an unqualified success. First, they ignored the fact that the success of the first two years of Trump's economy was actually the success of Obama's economy (it takes about two years for new administration policies to have an impact on the economy).
They then excused Trump's incompetent handling of the COVID pandemic, and instead blamed the 2020 tanking of the US economy on a worldwide pandemic rather than Trump's mismanagement of the U.S. response to the pandemic.
And because right-wing media pushed Trump's Big Lie that the 2020 election was "rigged," they justified Trump's behavior on January 6th, played down how violent the insurrection was, and played up conspiracies about it.
THE BIDEN ECONOMY: Given the two year gap between when administration policies are implemented and their effect on the economy, the poor economy of the first two years of the Biden administration was actually due to Trump's economic policies and the pandemic.* When Biden's policies finally had an impact, the US economy became "the envy of the world" in terms of it's post-pandemic performance. Yet, right-wing media and Trump claimed that the positive U.S. economic figures were not real, and kept saying the economy was awful.
INFLATION: Even as inflation came down, Fox News & the right-wing media didn't explain to consumers that just because the inflation rate gets lowered doesn't mean that prices go down to where they were before. It just means that they don't continue to increase as quickly.**
VIOLENT CRIME: Fox News and Trump have continued to lie by claiming violent crime in the cities has continued to go up. In fact, violent crime in the cities spiked during the pandemic (including on Trump's watch), but has come way down in the past year or so.
IMMIGRATION: And yes, there had been a surge in migrants under Biden, but contrary to the lies of Fox News and Trump, the borders were NEVER open under Biden, and the Biden administration has been doing a way better job with immigration than most Americans know. In fact, according to the Migration Policy Institute:
Combining deportations with expulsions and other actions to block migrants without permission to enter the United States, the Biden administration’s nearly 4.4 million repatriations*** are already more than any single presidential term since the George W. Bush administration (5 million in its second term). [color/emphasis added]
In other words, Biden's administration deported more migrants than Trump's administration--but Fox News, the right-wing media & and much of the MSM has never reported this.
[See more under the cut]
THE "LAWFARE" LIE: Fox News and right-wing media lied that the Biden administration was using "lawfare" to prosecute an "innocent" Trump. They used this lie to claim that it was actually the Democrats who were a threat to our democracy.
In reality, it was clear to most of the world that Trump was guilty of an attempted coup, as well as illegally & deliberately keeping top secret/classified documents. Not only DIDN'T the Biden administration engage in "lawfare" against Trump, the Biden DOJ under Merrick Garland dragged it's feet in pursuing charges against Trump.
TRUMP'S JUSTIFICATION FOR WEAPONIZING THE DOJ: Now Trump will use the lies he, Fox News & right-wing media spread about Democrats use of "lawfare" to justify weaponizing the DOJ to go after anyone who rightly tried to prosecute Trump's crimes or who tried to warn the nation that Trump is a danger to democracy.
LIES ABOUT TRUMP'S AGENDA: Finally Fox News, right-wing media, and even to some extent MSM echoed Trump's lies denying that the Project 2025 agenda is his agenda. However, after the election, numerous people on the right are admitting that Project 2025 IS Trump's agenda. Many people who sat out the election would have probably chosen to vote for Harris if they had realized that Trump would implement the deeply unpopular Project 2025.
THIS IS WHY THE 11 MILLION VOTES ARE "MISSING": In other words, since 2020, Fox News and the right-wing media spread Trump's lies and convinced many Americans that Trump was an unfairly persecuted man who was a much better president than he actually was. They also convinced many Americans that the Biden-Harris administration was much worse than it actually was. Their lies and disinformation about immigration, the economy, inflation, violent crime, and Trump's true agenda contributed to many people sitting out the election in 2024 who had voted in 2020.

Honestly thank you so much for supporting Meghan. To see all these brainrot Haters on here is disgusting and just makes me angry. She didn't do anything to deserve that level of hatred. There is a special place for people like that and I hope they know they got a VIP pass for it. 💀
I'm sending this ask to spread positivity to the entire Sussex Squad✨️💐
Thank you once again.
Ps: I love how you guys respond to these bitter excuses of human garbage 😂👍🏻
May those racists all step on lego. 🫡
Lol you're welcome😂 I just don't get like how Meghan gets so much vitriolic hate. Like people act like she backed up over their beloved pet. Or committed murder or something. It's really strange. But then you have Andrew walking around & Charles who was literally close with multiple pedophiles, are an afterthought to these people🤦 Meghan is not the dangerous villainous person to pass through the British Royal Family. The press also plays apart in this stuff
Literal journalists that should be acting professional, saying shit like Harry should push Meghan down a well or she should be thrown over a balcony. This isn't normal....
But anyway Meghan is truly iconic for having these fools in a chokehold.
This reminds me, there once was a saying: May the strongest Legos be ever under the foot of your enemies –Rotting Rota's Proverbs
Sussex hate campaign watch: first the British press spent a full week publishing articles about how Meghan was "emasculating" Harry for wearing a red dress (these are all so stupid, but I am including the links to document the ridiculous depths they'll go to in their relentless character assassination).
Then Meghan spoke to a bunch of teen girls about social media and cyberbullying, so now they have moved on to bullying her for talking about the bullying. They have no shame, and they never quit.
Opinion: Enough is enough. Let's talk about Meghan Markle and her loveless online haters.
"Meghan [the Duchess of Sussex] is indeed, as she puts it, one of the most bullied women online and both Meghan and Prince Harry have been very vocal about their mental health struggles. So much so that even our reporting or social posts on [Meghan] are riddled with vile, explicit, and vulgar memes and comments from people who have no chill at this point; from the comments, many think that if they trash her online, they can stop Meghan from having any branding capabilities. But they are wrong. There are more positive comments and support for Meghan online than ever before"

"I've been a waitress, an actress, a princess, a Duchess—I've always still just been Meghan, right? I've been clear on who I am, independent of all that stuff, and the most important title I'll ever have is mom." - Meghan, Duchess Of Sussex
