I can't sleep.  Not because of what I expect to happen to my wife and me, but what a country we're leaving for my children.  My daughter moved to Oregon to get out of the misogynistic hell that is Texas so that she has access to sane medical care.  Now where will she go?  The economy that trump proposals will bring will prevent both she and my son from ever being able to do more than get by.  I have gay and trans family members who will now be subject to government harassment without protection.  I served in the Marine Corps to try to ensure that our country would be fair and free, just to see the electorate throw that all away.  Damn it all to hell.

The worst part is how people vote against their self interest, latino men gave this away, I have no fucking idea what is up or down anymore.

@McCroskey says it’s not a big deal. A few people vote against their self interest and those that catch a couple strays are just collateral damage.

They're still here after 4 years of Trump. They'll still be here 4 years from now. Relax.

8 years ago was the end of times.

4 years ago was the redemption.

4 years from now will be whatever.

Goddamn why are people so stupid.

I actually felt pretty good 8 years ago. 4 years ago was a shit show. Yes we got him out of office but what a nightmare.

And now he is back. So that sucks. And after his mob assaulted my cousin. So I took that a little personally.

And yeah it would be cool if four years from now something better happens.

But right now we are in the suck part. So it is what it is.

I am sure there is some zen way a smart person will feel about all of this and I am sure I am getting there. You seem very determined that everybody feel a certain way about things so maybe that will make you happy.

Nothing matters, detach yourself and go meditate or whatever.

I'm interested in finding out what went wrong here. Dems seemingly put in serious work on the ground for this campaign, raised more money, had more enthusiasm, better GOTV, a high number of R defections voting for her, women caring about Dobbs(allegedly), etc Was there anything they could have done better? For any misstep you can pin on Kamala's campaign efforts I can probably point out 5 for Trump. Yet her were are. Were we always headed to this conclusion as a nation because it's just who we are now?

 

Also looking at the results for the Texas races for President/Senate has me wondering if some people who told me they were voting a certain way actually did.

Thank you for your service. That’s not cliché or meant facetiously tonight. I truly hope everything you served for will persevere into the future for many generations.

We’re just a blue speck of sand in the ocean of the universe so fuck it, right?

Relax?  Fuck you.  They and many others are going to suffer needlessly, and you say relax?  My wife and I are looking at losing our Social Security and Medicare, and you say relax?  My 93 year old dad is looking at losing his SS and Medicare.  Relax?  Fuck you.  You obviously don't give a shit about anyone else.

This country is deeply misogynistic. Look no further than the football board to see how many mouth breathers roam free in polite society.

That is how I see it dude. This result kind of shows me what sort of country this is.

But I should relax and not care about anything I guess according to the posters here.  And granted that is pretty much what I was planning to do anyway for awhile. I feared this and I guess I am glad the whole traumatic shitshow of this election is over.

Nobody is taking your Social Security and Medicare. This is more fear mongering.

They aren't dumb enough to touch the SS and Medicare of current recipients. 

Future recipients? We'll see.

I hate young voters I really really do, its not their fault of course they could turn out like 65+ but they are such a tiny minority demographically, we needed a white guy as a candidate.

More "He doesn't really mean it." bullshit.  He's said it, and now he'll do it.

He's campaigned on no cuts to Medicare or Social Security. He's not removing pre-existing conditions. You've been fed propaganda.

Is he going to impose the tariffs that he has promised on the scale that he has committed to?

is RFK Jr going to be running various health agencies like we have heard?  The guy who believes in chemtrail bullshit and is old school anti-vax?
