"Mildly interesting" or "greatly depressing"?
Kind of wild that Elon donated $250M alone didn't even change the trend.
- What do you mean, taking that this graph is showing data every to year it doubled gop percentage between elections and the 2022-2024 holds a hugely significant portion of that increase.
- It went from 30 to 50%?
  
  Its still been growing at a huge rate before that
- I'm not sure it counts. Would that be a donation to a political party fund?
