    i thought trump would win but I did not think it would be such a blowout that they'd be able to call it before I wake up on Wednesday

    I really don't think it would've mattered who ran unless Biden announced in 2023 or very early 2024. I liked Kamala and she had a surge when she was initially picked but it fell apart

    Cooler than a polar bear's toenails Prestigious

    My son, Heath, was born about a month and a half before he won the 2016 election. Those four years absolutely sucked for my brain. I still haven't forgotten many of the things I read and saw unfold while he was in power, but my one saving grace at the time was knowing that my little man was gonna be too young to remember any of it.

    I didn't give one shit about Joe Biden when I voted for him 4 years ago, I was just relieved we got that fucker out of there and I wouldn't have to explain much about that weird time in history to Heath as he went through his early school years and began to understand the world around him. Kamala inspired me in zero ways, especially when taking into account what gets discussed in here every day. But he's 8 now, in second grade, and 3 days ago I found out that he knew who both Trump and Kamala are (my wife told him about the election and why she's been so on edge lately) and he got really emotionally invested in what's happening. Fuck, is it gonna hurt when he wakes up tomorrow morning and asks me who won.

    That's it, that's all I got right now. This fucking blows.

    Democrats are more afraid of left/progressive populism working than democracy dying. They dove right and painted themselves purple not because they thought that was their best shot at winning but because it was their best shot at winning while keeping progress penned up. Harris losing was not the worst case scenario for those fuckers.

    " one and six households in this country live with an undocumented immigrant. You want that? You want BORTAC knocking on 1/6th doors in America? You think that'll be sick? 20 million people being mass deported, there is no other way to do that than concentration camps. When the concetration camps become too brutal maybe you will just kill them all.." - Hasanabi

    I'm not sure if I understand this theory. Didn't Biden win by going after the moderates? And didn't trump, a maga republican, just win the popular vote based on his conservative and traditional values platform?

    I don't see how going more left would help

    Still blows my mind that Trump is literally facing three different sets of charges in court, and was convicted of a fourth set... somehow managed to delay everything into after the election and it both didn't matter and also it like, never came up in dem messaging that he was ducking the charges
     
  24. gonna win the popular vote too

    the dems were able to hijack progressive anti-racist uprisings then move it towards the center to electoralism, while also eliminating their left wing controlled opposition of Bernie Sanders

    okay now i sleep.
