A full third of the country that could vote, did not vote.

Voter disenfranchisement is a significant portion of that, where the difficulty of voting or inability to vote because of voter purges, having the ability to vote denied because of felonies, and other barriers exist too.
Plus polling was fairly close so roughly half would have voted for Trump if they were forced to vote.
Not to mention the high chance that the election was actually rigged this time with all the election deniers put into positions of power, the fact that Republicans love to project what they are going to do on the opposition before they do it, and Trump bragging about Musk being able to rig voting machines (which is probably a baseless boast, but shows his willingness to cheat).
Blame the people who voted for Trump. They are the real problem.
