These are the percentages of the popular vote they have gained so far this century:
.............R........D
2000....47.9....48.4 (Dubya elected)
2004....50.7....48.3 (a red letter year! Dubya wins a majority)
2008....45.65...52.9 (some other guy elected)
2012....47.2....51.1 (again)
2016....46.1....48.2 (Trump elected)
2020....46.9....51.3 (Trump ejected, cussing)
Presidential candidates don’t have to win a majority or even a plurality of the popular vote, of course, because (we are told) America is not a democracy. Just as well for the GOP, isn’t it?
