Calvin Posted November 6 Posted November 6 Biden-Harris era was a massive failure, no doubt about it.Β but Trump was really the worst option.Β
RiseAndShine Posted November 6 Posted November 6 Just now, Onyxmage said: I hope you come back to this post after you see what Trump does. Β Trump will continue to do what Biden did, who continued to do what past presidents did, which was fund and provide arms to genocide the people of Palestine and steal their land. Β The USA has always and will always supports the genocidal apartheid state of Israel and the orange turd will carry on with that commitment.Β
harwee Posted November 6 Posted November 6 That fact that Trump surrounds himself with people like Elon and the gp embraces it is truly scary. I think economy and immigration are still where voter sentiments lie is, and coming out of covid, the economy did not improve fast enough and fixing the economy is one of Trump's biggest lie and facade. I think Elon's $1M giveaway actually worked cause that is part of that whole brand, money, business, making everyone feel miserable about themselves and worshiping those who have it. Many will vote against their rights or social issues in favor of it, if they even know what those issues are. "Gaza, yes i've been to that park in Anaheim" (quote from an actual conversation). Β Β Β
ClorΓΆx Posted November 6 Posted November 6 Just now, ClashAndBurn said: Trump doesn't get a popular vote victory just by being popular with Republicans, though. It's impossible to change MAGAs, they are cultists. The biggest concern is why Democrats losing the votes. But according to delulu Democrats it's everyone fault not theirs Β 6 1

Nido Posted November 6 Posted November 6 Since this is a music forum..this makes me wonder how this outcome will shift the American music/entertainment landscape. It felt like everyone was just going through a fun/poppy/dance music phase with all these post-COVID era albums and now reality hits once again and it felt like the dark ages are ahead. What will our pop girls do? How will their musical output react to this?
ShouldersSideways Posted November 6 Posted November 6 I tried to drug myself by taking three melatonin to go to sleep, because I had a really bad feeling but wanted to suppress it.Β Someone called me and woke me up and told me anyway.Β I'm sick to my stomach over this and have completely lost what little faith I had left in the American electorate.Β The rest of my life is going to be under a Trump SCOTUS. 1 1

Hunter_13 Posted November 6 Posted November 6 All those celebrity endorsements and "Kamala is brat" truly backfired. The way twitter and social media bubbles actually believed that was enough to win her the election is telling. Glad they didn't actually get out and vote and now I'll lose a lot of my rights. Congrats, America!Β 1
ClashAndBurn Posted November 6 Posted November 6 3 minutes ago, anti-***** said: But will the House be in Democrat control at least? Can they block some of the things Trump tries to do? Β @CommunionΒ @ClashAndBurnΒ Tagging you guys because I think you know the most about how it works. If Dems (barely) control the House, then the most they can do is prevent some of the worst social policies from being passed into law. Unfortunately, there are some conservative Democrats who will side with Republicans on a lot of issues, especially on fiscal matters, and a lot of social safety net programs will be cut regardless. Also, the IRS will be obliterated as well. Β That said, Henry Cuellar could very well be a deciding vote on a national abortion ban, and he's notorious for being strongly anti-choice. So social issues aren't really safe either. Respect For Marriage Act could also be repealed and replaced with a reinstatement of DOMA, as well as Don't Ask, Don't Tell for the military coming back.
EnterTheAttic Posted November 6 Posted November 6 I cannot stress enough how painfully stupid America is and how deeply uneducated its people are.Β If you exclude New York and California, it's just a bunch of hillbillies that are stuck in the early 1900s.Β The world is in shock.Β In 2016 it was concerning, but we were also laughing at the absurdity of the possibility of Trump, a known con man and reality star being the President of the 'gREatEst cOuntRy iN tHe WorLD'. But 8 years later, after multiple impeachments, 34 felonies, 26 sexual assault allegations, trial lawsuits and convictions, an insurrection, Roe V Wade being overturned, and a campaign of hate towards anyone going against them, we are shocked.Β How was this possible?Β To allow for a convicted felon to be your President, and not a more than qualified woman? This is just another proof how racism, sexism, misogyny, xenophobia, homophobia ARE part of America's culture. All of these things are in its DNA.Β A country that was built on the back of black slaves and, the slaughtering of actual native Americans and the suffering of so many others, should have learnt by its past mistakes.Β Whatever comes to them, they deserve it. There are dark times coming for America, and sadly for the rest of us too. 3

Sergi91 Posted November 6 Posted November 6 What time is the concession speech? If I'm not mistaken Hillary's was announced already by this timeβ¦Β
Hο»Ώoliestο»Ώ Dreams Posted November 6 Posted November 6 I have a question for people in here who are more well versed in politics and what will probably happen under Trump than I am. I mean, I read about politics often but feel like I'm far from an expert on what is fear mongering and what's possible. I would really appreciate some responses to alleviate my fears or, even worse, confirm them. Re: gay rights Β Is the talk about them introducing camps for gays actually a possibility? Β I've seen so many people dooming by saying that it will 'definitely' get to that point after repealing marriage and protections, maybe a few years down the line. It sounds absurd to me that they could get away with doing something like that in ******* 2024, but I'm starting to have an actual panic attack. Especially because it would be extremely hard for me to flee to somewhere else, honestly.Β Β This might be a dumb question to ask and perhaps not the right time to ask it, but I just really would love to get a feel for where others are at regarding this issue. I'm really ******* scared, and this is without even taking into account other minorities who are probably even higher on the chopping block. It's just so chilling, and I need some reassurance that such radical policies are unlikely (especially if we can overcome this mess in 2028 with a Democrat, as unlikely as it is). Β /rant sorry but I really am having a panic attack and don't know where else to seek opinions omgΒ 4

eleganceislearned Posted November 6 Posted November 6 Also, I cannot with smug people claiming it was because of Kamala and her campaign - no it wasn't (and honestly no one actually cared about Hilary's e-mails back in 2016 either). The country is cooked because of the neo nazi racists who hate societal progress of any sort because they see it as a threat to the their power. Racist whites and racist wannabe whites f*cked this whole country over, and the media was right there facilitating it (ratings, viewers, it's all about profit in this sh*thole country).Β 7 2 2
