The Politics Thread

[Maxim]

Amen. I have blocked so many people lately... My Facebook is now... down to 2 digits. And yes... what can I say about my narcissistic mother that says - I like Trump better than Kamala, because he just makes me laugh and he is soooo funny... How can you argue with this? This can only be cured in mental institutions or... by keeping your distance from it. 

That's why she won't be hearing from me this Christmas.

You and I are of the same mindset, re: reminding people that this is what you voted for. I don't want complaints, annoyances etc. YOU voted for Trump, because you fell for the false promises and false belief he'd give you what you wanted. Cry to someone who cares, because I certainly won't.

Someone posted a Twitter post (man, I can’t get away from Xitter no matter how hard I try!) from Matt Walsh laughing and saying now that the election is over, he can finally admit that it was always about Project 2025. It’s not the economy, stupid…it’s Project 2025, stupid.

And people are surprised by this?

You haven’t seen the latest exit polls, have you? I will wait for confirmation on whether these numbers are accurate but GenX may be the problem this time around.

Does anyone still care what this bozo still thinks? 

[DramatistDreamer]

Shockingly yes. But a lot of people are going to discover the hard way that elections have consequences. They will also find out the definition of FAFO.

I just hope there are no SARS, H1N1 or the like lurking next year or America could be in for tragedy. Again.

But those are all fake, don't you remember? All fake. Not real.

Only Hannibal Lecter is real in his head.

God bless VP Harris and God bless AG Letitia James but from what I am seeing people are still intent on relying on Black women to carry democracy on our backs. It won’t turn out the way people think it will down the road. I have been talking to many all day and…well, people have plans but the idea of inclusivity may be a thing of the past.

Truth. I do think many people need to try to understand in order to process though. I'm trying to finally accept that a lot of men and women do not want equality between the sexes. I find it a bitter pill to swallow, but do think it's one of the things I'm taking away from this race.

And get this... this s-it got me so worked up... even 1 whole bottle of martini can't give me a slight buzz. I'm sober as a bat. Can I blame the orange man for this? I sure can. He ruined my martini too. Ugh. Sorry for the psychotic attempt at humor, but I will go crazy if I don't try. I'm still so stressed. Can't fall asleep.

This is my only remaining hope. With any luck most of his insane promises are lies. I am hoping his corporate overlords will stop him from trying mass deportation and tariffs.

I agree.  VP Harris and Gov. Walz ran the very best campaign they could.  It isn't their fault that Americans are just too afraid to progress.

It's hard to describe how I've been feeling since yesterday. I send hugs to everyone and I'm hoping we're all safe out there.
