I don't understand how this many people see everything that he's done and said, and still voted for him. I just do not understand. I don't want to live on the same planet as these people, nevermind in the same country.
And they won the Senate and are on track to win the house. The supreme Court is already in Trump's pocket and even if he choked on a big Mac and keeled over tomorrow that still leaves Vance, who is just as insane as trump but knows how to make his shit palatable to anyone who hasn't been paying attention, which as tonight proves is more than half the country. We are 1000% well and truly fucked.
I'm REALLY Angry at the Economy which is why I voted for a Billionaire who Promised his Billionaire friends Cabinet Positions and Tax Cuts and other Treats at the Expense of ME!
Also he promised to Deport my Wife and Daughter and lock up my Gay friend which is a HUGE Plus!
This is somehow less of a gut-punch than 2016 when everyone just assumed Americans would do the right thing and not elect Trump. It still sucks, but itās less of a surprise. The writing was kind of on the wall for awhile though, just given the fact that the election was as close as it was. Even if Trump hadnāt won, that he was able to run the most garbage campaign in history and was still tying it up was pretty damning of America.
So now we watch as we just peacefully transfer power to the most vile, irresponsible person on Earth and watch the world burn.
Welp. Remember guys save money. Those tariffs are gonna hit hard. Make friends, they will help you get through harder times. Workout and become physically stronger, you may need it. Archive books and studies and pieces of knowledge that may get banned.
And for right now, drink some water and go to sleep. No need in worrying about this right now. We'll have plenty of time to do so anyways.
Itās just so sad that people can look at this shit like Project 2025 and think letās go for that. Ignore Trump and his calls for being a dictator but what the fuck. I am so disappointed in
my fellow Americans. I do not look forward to having this shit stain being shoved in my face with his inability to speak a clear thought.
I feel physically sick right now. I don't have the money to leave. I'm an openly gay man. We're headed for a christofascist dictatorship. I just wanted to stay alive long enough to bury my mother, that's all, and I probably won't get to, not in the new American Reich. I know Harris winning wouldn't fix every problem this country has but please fuck not like this
I guess people really do want fascism. We talk about it like it's an obviously-awful thing, but apparently most Americans disagree. Most people around the world seem to disagree, in fact. We laugh about the idiots voting for Trump, but far right lunatics are gaining positions of power all over the planet. It's not just Fox News-fed Americans.
It feels like we're building up to something catastrophic.
They don't see what he's done and what he's said. The people that put him over the edge this time were targeted for being ill-informed and tempted by magic wand campaign promises like "no tax on tips" or dumb things like gold sneakers. They aren't watching informed news or doing research about his past performance. They're simply voting on vibe alone and have been heavily targeted on social media to make them think everything sucks and he's the only one who can fix everything when in fact he's the complete opposite of them.
It's not over yet. They still have votes to count throughout the night.
If he does win after the official numbers come in, the good news is, you will never have to vote again. Voting is over from that point on.
And if he drops dead in office, christian nationalism will take over with JD Vance. Keep your couches locked up!
Free pass revoked. Showed us who the nation is that shows up late to wars after waffling on sides is now that you voted to abandon Ukraine and Gaza. And maybe even NATO and lives. And stuck your dick in the world economy again.
The majority of the stupid is invincible and guaranteed for all time. The terror of their tyranny, however, is alleviated by their lack of consistency.
Just with a bit of estimation of the remaining 12% of votes uncounted, Trump is going to beat his 2020 vote record by a couple million, 81 million on the high end and maybe closer to 77 million on the low end. Unlikely, but possible he beats the 2020 all time record set by Biden. Definitely beats his 2020 numbers.
Kamala recently pulled ahead of Hillaryās 65 million and Obamaās 66 million, sheās gonna end up around 71-74 million.
Kamala lost the Popular Vote. In fact she won some blue states by smaller margins then she lost some āswingā states. Nevada might not even be tight enough to qualify as a swing state this election(needs to be 5% or less, Trumpās currently winning by 5.2% meaning it wasnāt a swing state), meanwhile Minnesota was won by 3, New Jersey by 4, New Hampshire by 4 and a half, and Maine might be lost weāll see, but those 4 were all swing states as the margin was less than 5%. New Mexico and Virginia came very close(and New Mexico would have been under 5 without RFK Jr dragging Trump down a point).
This also suggests the Electoral College no longer favors Republicans, and is somewhere between neutral and actually favoring Democrats again. 2028 a tight election with a Democrat win could see them lose the PV and win the EC.
I had a ton of 2004 vibes from the start and it looks like that was correct. He is coming back to serve a second term, and YES, this time he won the national electiiion. Oh thanks to your Ohia and your brother Jebidiah
(Also you canāt blame third parties this time, they did horribly nationwide. At worst maybe they tightened up Virginia a bit just through how uniquely bad for Democrats it was there, but on the other hand RFK Jr is the only reason New Mexico didnāt crack a sub 5 margin and go into Swing State territory again(Harris won by 5.2 there and RFK got 1 point. No third party means that crosses the 5 point threshold)
The mail ins haven't been counted fully, lots of swing states stopped counting at 8 pm eastern standard time. Kamala has a solid chance to flip enough to get to 270, 2020 wasnt called till 4 days after the election. Stop being doomers until after the fucken votes are properly counted.
