Is an "I told you so" going to work on people that thought things would get better with Trump, when they realise they messed up?

Oh well, thanks for having me. See y'all in four years.

Nah, they won't admit they messed up.

Senate majority for the Republicans.

Wishing the best for my American friends, but I fear the worst. Hopefully Australia doesn't happily play as your lapdog in these times when we inevitably vote in Potato Voldemort next year.

Did not want to wake up to this.

Thanks to those brainless ones, the world is ****ed.

Buckle up guys, gonna be a bleak 4 years.

Four is optimistically low.

I feel sorry for all the educated Americans in and outside this forum, unfortunately you've been outnumbered once again. Also a shame for the rest of us that will have to endure this clown from afar for another 4 years.

 

[FuriousDemon]

So I guess all those charges against him will drop off huh? How convenient

 

[inCloud]

Yeah. That sure worked out well for you guys.

Lack of faith in institutes is big part of our situation. They stop working when people don't believe in them. People didn't believe in elections, didn't come at stations, mobilization of public workers became enough to prolong current regime.

By acting like one man could break 230+ years of democracy you performing biggest act of pathetic defeatism. You just ate too much Dems propaganda. Trump is lying orange showman, not evil genius.

Brother, musk is going to be running the show. The funding for public programs is already not enough, now with that asshole cutting everything, that I’m sure will include education, people will be even dumber than they are. Dumb people also breed more dumbkins, since god told them so. Fox News is number 1 “news” source around these parts. Supreme Court is stacked. Now senate is going red too. What kind of outs do we have here? It may not happen day one, maybe not even year one or two, but the trajectory is pretty clear.

 

[FuriousDemon]

Another thing. These ****s and apparently the majority of the country don’t care much about climate change, even though Florida’s getting ripped a new one by Mother Nature. I just hope the world lasts another 50 or so years. After that, hope all these ****s and their offsprings enjoy being slaves for musk on mars or wherever the **** he wants to go.

What have I missed? AP is showing that they have not yet called the race.

Trump’s winning. Most states went hard right. Probably popular vote is also going his way too, which is just sick.

Following this thread for a couple weeks now, I have a feeling a lot of members in here will need some rear end pain relief cream.

Enjoy.

I elect to stay skeptical. Not all of the states have finished counting, and blue shift is a thing. We don't have the full picture yet.

Senate majority for the Republicans.

That was basically inevitable. Manchin's seat was never going back to Democrats so they had to try to flip someone else, and the closest they could try was Cruz.

I would like to believe that but as someone who lives in Wisconsin and seeing how scary the counties were in leaning Trump outside of Milwuakee and Madison and with Trump up 4% with 87% of the vote counted, its not looking good.

I'm going to bed and will probably be waking up to re-evaluating moving back to the UK.... I have dual citizenship, though isn't the UK a **** show these days as well?

The US is not on a trajectory to match the move Idiocracy quite quickly. The dumbing of this nation is unreal..

This is why democrats lost, again. Because all they do is demonise people with a different viewpoint, which actually turns them away from the left.

And you had such faith in the strength of your position you only chose to speak up now?

Many of those who voted for Trump may soon find out that the dildo of truth never arrives lubed, unfortunately, the rest of the world will get to feel that as well.

I'm not sure what crack you are on considering the Trump campaign demonize everyone that doesn't agree with Trump. You either agree with him or he just name calls, threatens, bullies and essentially calls people monsters. How is that for demonization.

Sure democrats call out bad traits in the opposition but it pales compared to Trump.

By that logic, do you believe that the GOP has openly embraced people with a different viewpoint?

I'm neither a Democrat nor even American.

I think Democrats actually probably lost because Harris was unable to separate herself from Biden (59% unapproval rating) with regards to issues that Democrats presided over.

The fact that she, specifically, seems to have underperformed substantially versus down-ballot elections and referenda that sometimes even mirrored her policy proposals makes me think this was a tall order for any Democrat to win over any Republican, nevermind one cast into the role 6 months after the norm because of Biden's ego.
