I saw an exit poll saying almost 30% of people who believe abortion should be legal voted for Trump.

There was an interview on a Twitter account - I think his name is Peter Hamby - where he was interviewing college students. One said, essentially, "I've always heard how bad he is but I was fine and I'm still here." They have no idea about the guardrails he had in his first administration. They have no idea how much they and everyone they claim to love are going to lose. 

I struggle with everything and so does everyone I know. It's hard to think about just how bad it's going to get.

Watching this from Sydney and heartbroken for the people in the US who don't deserve this. I honestly feel like this just shows he was going to win no matter what. I don't know what else she could have done.

Terrified about what this means for Ukraine and Gaza/Israel. The people who protested voted for whoever over Gaza really played themselves because he'll let Bibi completely bulldoze it and build condos.

Like I said before, even if that bastard ends up winning again, if he thinks we’ll just roll over and play dead for him, he has another think coming.  

I think what one of my former classmates posted on FB sums it up: folks were too worried about the price of eggs and gas to look at the bigger picture (or even realize that the president, in fact, has no control over such matters).

Naturally. Going to be unbearable when Trump inevitably ends up giving Bibi a blank check to do whatever he wants and there is no Gaza to speak of. I'm think I'm more pro-Israel/two state solution compared to most people on the liberal side of things, and I pretty much lost hope on that situation with him winning. That's totally out the window I fear.
