Well... it's worth noting that (IIRC) a record number of people voted in the 2020 election, overall and for each major-party candidate. Are those who chose to vote for Trump not to be counted among "Trump supporters"? It was approximately (but decidedly not quite) half of voters.

Yes, but I was highlighting the disparity between "active voters" and "Americans in general", and between them and now. Saying half of the country supports Trump simply isn't factually true.

Now, whether people who don't vote should even be part of the conversation is another debate, of course.
