You’re still a fascist cunt. Kamala didn’t convince you enough to vote against a rapist. You seem like a swell person lol.

Yup. Now what? You think I’m a moron? You can’t imagine how much that hurts me to read.
 

Send a decent candidate out there and you wouldn’t have this problem. The fact that it’s even close should tell you everything that you need to know. She’s shit, more so than Trump. Guess it’s 4 years in Canada for you. Best book your flight now.

[wild_turkey 3,279]

Agreed.
The heartbreaking part is that we have gotten worse, and dumber, in my lifetime.
Fox News has won.  It's over.

Idiocracy.

Ive been thinking about this lately and Orwell’s quote regarding Hitler and the nazis…. “Better to end in horror than a horror without end.”  

I feel terrible for all the people about to be hurt by this movement of psychos for no good reason other than scoring political points.  Dark times

Blame the voters all you want but the institutions from the courts to the media catastrophically failed the voters. You can’t just vote harder against fascism.  

Everyone has a pocket sized computer on them at all times with access to all of the information in the world. Anyone who persists in their ignorance in this age is due all of the blame for their condition. 

Not sure what the media could do differently that would change much, unless you mean Fox. Most people are getting all of their info from Facebook and tiktok echo chambers.

The first time I hear someone say, "I wouldn't have voted for him if I'd known it was going to be like this," I'm going to commit a murder with my bare hands.

Stein really isn't having that big of an impact in Michigan. Certainly not anywhere close to the "uncommitted" amount of voters from the primary. Still a lot in Wayne county to come out and hopefully make up the difference.

Send a decent candidate out there? That’s really your argument. 

[Firemans4Horn 18,498]

Hopium from a biased source. But it’s all we got:

 

The Harris-Walz Campaign Chair Jen O’Malley Dillon just released this statement: 

Team,

As polls close across the country, I wanted to give everyone an update on what we’re seeing. As we have known all along, this is a razor thin race. Thanks to this amazing team, we have seen incredible turnout across the Battleground States, and the closeness of the race is exactly what we prepared for. 

While we continue to see data trickle in from the Sun Belt states, we have known all along that our clearest path to 270 electoral votes lies through the Blue Wall states. And we feel good about what we’re seeing.

In Pennsylvania, we overperformed turnout expectations in Philadelphia, and overperformed in our early vote expectations in Bucks County. We don’t have Election Day results from Philadelphia, but we do know that we overperformed turnout expectations there, and have seen specially high turnout in places with large non-white and student populations. We expect to see higher turnout in Philadelphia than in 2020. Outside of Philadelphia, we have limited data on turnout and support right now, but what we do have is tracking with our expectations. We are awaiting more results (like everyone else!), and hope to get a closer read in the coming hours. 

In Michigan, we are awaiting a significant amount of votes to come in. The City of Detroit won’t be reported out until roughly midnight, but we have seen strong turnout throughout early vote and Election Day there. Other results in Michigan are harder to parse, since results are coming in more piece-meal than elsewhere. 

In Wisconsin, we know there is a significant amount of vote remaining in Dane and Milwaukee counties, and we are seeing signs of strong performance in the WOW counties, where we have partial data. We don’t expect complete results from Wisconsin until tomorrow morning between 3 am - 5 am. 

Polls just closed in Nevada and Arizona so, as expected, it will be a while before we have more information from both states. 

We’ve been saying for weeks that this race might not be called tonight. Those of you who were around in 2020 know this well: It takes time for all the votes to be counted – and all the votes will be counted. That’s how our system works. What we do know is this race is not going to come into focus until the early morning hours. 

We’ll continue to keep you all updated as we get more information. This is what we’ve been built for, so let’s finish up what we have in front of us tonight, get some sleep, and get ready to close out strong tomorrow. 

JOD

The candidate that you voted for has been convicted of sexual assault, is a convicted felon, and tried to overturn a fair election that he lost and threatened the very fabric of our democracy with 4 years of lies about that election.

And you think Kamala is not a decent candidate? Not rape-y enough for you?

This is incredibly depressing. People have 8 years of experience with Trump and think he makes a better President. Any of his dumbass voters talking about inflation under Biden are morons. The only 2 policies that Trump cares about are tariffs and mass deportations. Both of these ideas are highly inflationary.

There will be no guardrails for the next Trump administration. We are headed for some incredibly dark times.

To be clear Trump back in office will have no threat of wwiii with Russia at all. He will give them Ukraine, Moldova, and a few other former Soviet occupations. Trump is a crooked pussy. 

12 minutes ago, RabidM said:

WW III happens when he attacks a NATO country, which he will.  The problem is Trump will support Russia, but we will be obligated by treaty to support NATO and Trump cannot unilaterally pull us out of NATO anymore.  I don't know what happens in that scenario.  I believe the GOP can sit on their hands and do nothing legally.  I don't think there is any mechanism that can force Trump to support NATO if he chooses to stay on the sidelines or orders us to help Russia. 

While I do think Trump would happily give Putin Ukraine and Georgia if elected (he's said he would), the only good news is that Putin is pretty tapped out on manpower (going with North Koreans who didn't know the internet had porn) and Russia is not even the best army in Ukraine and in Kursk.  They don't have the infrastructure (both wheeled vehicles and naval/railway) to really move troops into any NATO country (not even the Baltics), and they'd basically be running a community college football team up against a top tier NFL team. Their second invasion of Ukraine in February of 2022 was spotted and properly assessed well before they rolled troops in, and given how lacking they are in manpower and vehicles (and naval vessels), any attempt to build up will be even more apparent these days.

Moldova is too difficult for Putin to get any large numbers of troops into without getting shot down or sunk by Ukraine (or else he would have dumped a ton of troops in there by now and used it as a second front against Ukraine). He also runs the risk of Ukraine helping Moldova clear out any Russian troops if Ukraine gets nervous.  Also, keep in mind that most of Russia's best-trained and best-equipped troops have long since ended up in garbage bags sent back to Russia. That's what they tried to take Kyiv with (the infamous airport). Untrained/inexperienced airborne troops don't do well in enemy territory.

[Nice Guy Eddie 13,706]

I could write a paragraph or two where I believe Harris made mistakes but ultimately this falls on Biden being a poor president for many in America. I did well under Biden’s America but that’s mainly due to a raging hot stock market.

America fared best among most countries regarding inflation but Biden should have acted more decisively to combat higher prices. And he failed to take  notice of the belief about too much illegal immigration.
