The reason Harris lost is because people who voted for Biden in 2020 stayed home and because fewer young people voted than in previous elections, not because they voted for Trump. Democratic turnout fell by 2 million votes.
By the numbers, yes. Trump’s turnout increased by 1 million from 2020 whereas Democrats decreased by 2 million, and the loss of Democrat turnout was what pushed Trump over the edge. He still only got 49.9% of the vote, after all.

But it isn’t the amount of votes, it’s the states that are won/lost. I’m not from US and I know that…
It would have made a difference in Michigan specifically. He won by 80 thousand votes.
