I wouldn't laugh, Trumpism is far from over in this country. The fact that this election is this close says volumes considering Trump basically killed 200,000 people, destroyed the economy, increased unemployment and wiped out gains for decades. People will vote for him, because he will cut taxes, fill courts with right-wing judges, and hurt Liberals. It's crazy to think that had he not mishandled COVID-19 he would have been re-elected.

Trumpism was here long before Trump. It was always going to be here after. Cutting off the head of the snake just helps to begin to put them back in their place and work on breeding them out. I'll laugh at him losing and bleeding out slow like a wounded dog as long as I like. He won't run again.

No one could've won this election against Trump but Joe. No one. I suspected that a while back, but the nailbiters of this week - which, it seems, we will now win by a very healthy margin as opposed to the dark slim forecast once expected two nights ago - proved it. I was proud to vote for Elizabeth Warren but she would've been slaughtered. Bernie would've been a shitshow nightmare from summer to now. Trump worship is a cult that crosses social and in some cases ethnic lines, on misogyny, on masculinity, on racism. And as long as he was in play, we were going to need Joe Biden, an everyman, to counter him. And thank God for him.


Am I happy it came down to another safe str8 white man to take down a white man? No. But I understand it better than I did four years ago. We have a long way to go, and Joe is a good man, and Kamala has a great future.

Completely agree. Which honestly is why I am a bit scared for Kamala replacing him. America has shown it's true colors and a map for her in 2024 is scary to me. 

 

These voters lost their mind under Obama, and I still think they've been broken by the idea that a Black President was as good as he was. They never healed which is why they sent Trump in.

Exactly. I don't believe this country will be ready for Kamala in four years. Not after what we've been through, and not after what these people did. It's surprised me before, you never know. But I think eight is a better shot.
