  1. I suggested to my husband we find some hobbies and take some classes and volunteer more in our community like the food pantry or something. Take our minds off it, give back to the community, and remind ourselves how good we do have it even if everything looks bleak right now
  2. Dems did see him as a one term president. He didn’t. Nothing you can about that
  3. Maybe, if we deem them so. That’s why we have an amendment process. There’s nothing in the constitution mandating a 9 member scotus or the filibuster
  4. We know that. That’s not the point. It’s still a relic that needs to go
  5. He will still hold the base under his spell. They’ll need him until his body is lying in state in the capitol rotunda
  6. Texaggy was crowing about polls showing trump in the lead and sweeping all the swing states. We laughed them off. I bet in the coming days, analysis will show they were actually pretty accurate, we were just in denial
  7. So what’s gonna happen when inflation doesn’t magically go away, or gets worse? I’m sure the electorate will hold trump accountable just like Biden
  8. And yet those same people aren’t outraged at all at the billionaires pulling the strings. In fact, they adore and worship them
  9. On one hand, it’s hard to fathom what happened. All these stories of women outpacing men, first time voters, blah blah blah. It meant absolutely fucking nothing in the end. How did this happen? I guess we made too many assumptions about where those votes were going. But it still does t make sense. On the other hand, it all makes sense. Inflation and the average American’s understanding of it was at the forefront throughout Biden’s presidency. What could he have done differently. Use the Clinton “I feel your pain”? Would that have made a difference? If there was a magic deflation button on the Resolute Desk, I’m sure he would have pressed it. So much to dig through. My husband is devastated, as am I. But I told him what can we do? Like I said last night. Live our lives and prepare for the what may be coming. I told him we’re going to need each other. I remember trying to be hopeful in 2016 because, again, what are our options. I couldn’t have imagined how bad it actually turned out. I’m afraid it’ll be worse this time
  10. Been reading The Fourth Turning off and on and I think it’s either that or a major world war by then. Maybe both!
  11. I think it’s pretty clear that I think it’s over
  12. I think I will have to check out on politics for a long time. Focus on my husband, family, and preparing for the future whatever may come. My hope for this country has been extinguished
  13. They didn’t bungle it. It’s by design
  14. But we knew we had a lot more mail in ballots to be counted. It’s not the same this year
  15. I remember thinking in 2016 that was the sign that trump was going to win. I feel the same way now though I’m in denial
  16. So she’s down now in PA?
  17. Well now that I know, yeah
  18. Ok awake from my nap. What did I miss, tell me everything
  19. I was gonna try a nap too since I’m working night shift tonight too, but I don’t think it’s gonna happen
  20. Let him get his ass worked, he’s earned it
  21. Oh you’ll need a good punishing alright
  22. Deep breaths, Kamala’s got this
