Anyway, it's going to be a fun four years! Think I'll try to tune out until 2028.

Time to start looking for positives if the orange man baby.wins.
The founding fathers will spin in their graves so much that America will become a major source of clean hydrothermal energy, accidentally meeting their climate change agreements.

The main positive for me will be that I don't fucking live there.

Fuck this timeline. Even if she pulls it off in the end, this never should have even been close. And in any country that actually believes in democracy and modern human values, it wouldn't have been.
Oh, and fuck the Selzer poll, too. Of course the one time she majorly gets it wrong is when it would be to the Democratic party's benefit for it to be right...

"A criminal and a rapist you say? A multiple bankrupt who doesn't pay his workers, has dementia and loves Putin? A wannabe fascist who wants to kill his opponents and put his critics in prison. Ooh sign me up!" - a possible majority of the American electorate.

The variable that remains is will he try to do any of the things he's said? Or will it just be like his first term, wacky noise headlines and not much actual policy?

I'm guessing that it will be a carnival of incompetence and failure. But this is what America voted for, so...
Maybe the Democrats can take the next 4 years to learn how to appeal to voters again. Once the circular firing squad is done, of course.

Feels like it's down to Pennsylvania, Wisconsin & Michigan to avert catastrophe.

This… doesn’t look good. Think I’ll avoid the news this morning, and probably for the next 4 years. Wtaf America.

Feels like it's down to Pennsylvania, Wisconsin & Michigan to avert catastrophe. With Wisconsin at 87% counted and Pennsylvania 90.6% I fear he's too far ahead to be caught. It's over, or rather, just beginning...again. |

There’s something absolutely rotten at the heart of western democracies if you decide to elect a rapey racist that can barely string a sentence together. Social media was a huge mistake.
And now we get to hear our media fawn over the special relationship and how we should appease people that have been trying to undermine our own government.

The demographic breakdown is insane.
Following the great success of last Christmas, we, the turkeys, have voted to once again celebrate this great holiday. Whatever happened to Barry and Linda?

Yeah. It's done.
Trump might even win popular vote.
Presidency, courts, house, senate. They got all.

Horrible news to wake up too. Not as devastating as the Brexit realisation but not far from it.
Shit flinging and dirty tactics wins votes, it is corruption in bright daylight.

I reckon if Walz had been the lead for the democrats then they’d have won. America isn’t ready for a woman president.
It’ll all be fine, Brexit ended up ok. The decade+ of tories was fine and Trump was alright last time.

What a shitty (but unsurprising) news update to wake up to. Might turn my computer/TV/phone off for a few days. Not looking good
