Sure but clearly in a few places people only voted for the top of the ticket (President) or split their vote which does happen in elections.
In other words there are clearly people who went out, voted Republican for everything but Trump.

Or there was no rigging. Trump lost the popular vote last time, he lost it this by a similar number, but the increase Biden did get was enough to overturn slim margins in key states.
