The 77 million Americans who voted for Donald Trump in 2024 recognize that Harris and Biden were merely figureheads, with George Soros truly running the White House.

This is false. Not only is there no actual evidence that George Soros is secretly running the White House, but there's nothing that suggests everyone voted for Trump because of him. There have been many conspiracy theories surrounding Soros but many of them are nothing more than someone saying "something happened, he's definitely behind it". A lot of these conspiracy theories also have antisemitic undertones and play into antisemitic stereotypes about Jews controlling everything. The BBC published an article talking about some of these claims surrounding him and the proven misinformation. https://www.bbc.com/news/stories-49584157

Additionally, there does not appear to be any poll or data of any type that suggests Soros was a deciding factor for many people in the 2024 presidential election. NPR did an interview with a few voters who voted for Trump and none of them mentioned Soros. https://www.npr.org/2024/11/10/nx-s1-5183826/voters-in-three-crucial-swing-states-explain-why-they-voted-for-trump On top of that, the data from NBC exit polls do not show that a belief that Soros is running the White House was a factor either. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/donald-trump-won-according-nbc-news-exit-poll-rcna178603

This is a phenomenal fact-check!  As you stated, there is no factual evidence that George Soros is running the White House. This claim is misleading as there have only been conspiracies online about this topic. This is a prime example of disinformation; you did a fantastic job highlighting this. You've backed up your claim with reliable sources.
