Exactly, I wasn't so much shocked as I was surprised Harris lost. I mean how can so many people be that dense as to vote for Trump?
What gets me is that there were millions who couldn't be bothered to vote against Trump.
imho Biden/Harris shouldn't have had to do anything whatever. People should have just shown up and said 'no' to anotehr Trump term.
No democrat should have had to do anything. just a few minutes of any Trump campaign speech should have been enough for him to lose most votes. Have his groupies ever actually listened to him?
Awareness isn't a big thing for them. They've lived through Reaganomics since 1980 and still haven't noticed that none of the wealth is trickling down.
In 1980, 'middle class' was still one job supporting a family of four and $1 million was still a vast fortune. By the time Bush Sr's term was over, 'middle class' was two incomes to run a household and $1 million was what a rich guy paid for a party.
Absolutely, being normal should beat a flaming sociopath. But malignant narcissism and sociopathy have become virtues in USA, as the ultimate symbol of freedom. Because they only think of themselves.
Good thing most Americans can find an extra three grand in their couch cushions. /s
vance already checked
That's not for them. Vance left a tip for the couch when he finished.
Oh no no no. It's of course someone else's fault. Harris not good enough, blah blah blah. Definitely don't blame people too lazy or uninterested to vote. That's definitely not their fault and theyre definitely not complicit in everything going on.
No sir, it's the democrats for Gaza. Or for biden. Or for not being sparkly enough. Or now, for not standing up to trump (when they are in the minority). They are the ones to blame for the situation, not trump or the morons who voted for him for a second term, or stayed at home. No sir, let's be mad at the democrats.
Plenty of blame to go around
Take the upvote.
"People keep acting like a trump win will be the end of democracy, but thats just hyperbole. He wont end democracy."
-bad faith trolls
No he will not end democracy as such, it's in USA he will end it.
That’s what I said to myself when he won to calm myself down.
