They don't understand that rooting for them, doesn't make them part of the team.

If Kamala wins, her Dept. of Education should really make a push to make sure that we are teaching fascism and WW2 in schools so people can recognize this shit and stop falling for it.

"The forest was shrinking, but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood he was one of them."

don't be silly, of course the leopards will only eat other people's faces.

They’ll just be told to blame everyone else for their suffering, just like they have been for decades now. It’s all going to be heaped on the same old tired bogeymen: illegals, libs, the nebulous educated elite, etc.

Says the war dodging, low IQ (the true low IQ individual), balding denier, sexual assaulting, multi-time felon.

Trump is like 1985’s alternate timeline Biff Tannen only worse because he’s real.

57 percent voted for reproductive choice. But the measure required 60% supermajority.

And to make things worse - abortion being its own separate item on the ballot may have been what cost us Florida, since pro-choice voters who leaned right could vote both ways.

• A lot of Americans think when he talks about doing bad things, it's all talks,
• when he talks about making the economy better, it's all in good faith,
• all the "necessary evil" can be undone in the next election cycle,
• and business controls the narrative, that would highly benefit under trump.

Yeah, and boring and ineffective liberals that trying to take the moral high ground every time the right takes yet another low.

Lots. I don't feel so good Mr stark.

he should never be allowed in this country again.

I'd appreciate not dumping your garbage on somebody else's doorstep, thank you very much.

He should have been convicted at the second impeachment trial, but McConnell made up another rule that never existed before.

You guys can keep him. Just put him in an orange jumpsuit and throw him into one of your egregiously inhumane jails.

They said yes because most are only looking at a rose colored picture of Trump. A lot of effort has gone into identifying the different ideological bubbles and catering an image of Trump specifically tailored for them, in the way only money can. We will likely never know to what extent given how fast transparency has been disappearing.

Don't forget those that sat on their hands and did nothing. Inactivity is an action.

Just over half of those who voted said yes, there's still a lot of us who voted against this and watched in horror as the remainder proceeded to fuck us over. From those of us who voted against this: we tried our best and hate this as much as the rest of the sane world. Good luck trying to salvage things out there, it's going to be increasingly difficult for us to act openly against this soon. If you can, put the thumbscrews to us in whatever way you can. We'll suffer, but then again we're already going to be.

Seriously, here in Australia, a win is a legitimate reason to take yanks in as political refugees (especially women)

NYT forecast is 90% Trump now. It's crazy that anyone would vote for him, really shows that policy plays no part in politics. It'll be interesting to see how he tears down the judicial system to remove the many charges against him.

And women, and poor people, and journalists

I think you misunderstand the method of imposing the hardship. The police will be better paid and there to impose the planned hardship on the ordinary people, including many of the people who always vote for him.

It's honestly rather strange and depressing watching the US from the outside. I have rarely seen the most downtrodden segment of the population being so gung ho about the worst parts of the system that's been oppressing them their whole lives. It's amazing to me to see so many super patriotic black people for example. How? For what? Why would you blindly defend the same structures that've been oppressing you for centuries? It'd be less depressing and more funny if it wasn't for the massive destructive power these people get access to when they win, power that they subsequently unleash on the rest of the world.
