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.

    • Elon is snapping on Trump worse than Phyllis snapped on Billy over Abbott Communications lmao.
    • In watching the Family Feud episodes, I can't get over how charming and interesting all the EON actors are. Tony Craig was not served by how Draper was written, and I wish he had been given a better character. He's so adorable on FF. From what I've seen on EON, he is never given much of a chance to show that. He should have been a major leading man in soaps based on the way he is on FF. 
    • Kim Zimmer gets a lot of details wrong. Since she gave it to so many people to read (if they actually read it and didn't just blurb it), you would think someone would have pointed out these errors. I don't know if it's just confusion on her part or if it's because she wrote it out of anger. She has admitted she was extremely angry in writing the book. I was not surprised she left out Michelle Forbes because it must have come as a blow to realize that viewers had quickly latched on to another actress.  That's probably why she was not always kind to Cynthia Watros (something she admits to). Jeanne Cooper and Victoria Rowell published similar memoirs where they were determined to get even with costars and producers they felt had wronged them. Zimmer is a lot more measured than those two.
    • And Susan did find something to hawk when All My Children was cancelled. Susan was right in the middle of a book tour to promote her autobiography. So she was facing questions from interviewers about AMC cancellation, while trying to sell her book at the same time Kim Zimmer must be clairvoyant - explains why TPTB at Guiding Light made the character Reva a psychic!
    • Who cares?  I just enjoy watching them fight.

    • Cheeseburgers, with some spicy fries! YUM!
    • Not to be that person (lol), BUT: Reva's marriage to Alan was annulled, so that doesn't count. Also, I ASSUME she had not yet been declared legally dead when she married Richard, so that one also probably doesn't count. As I've said before, it's not unusual for actors to slip up on storyline details, so I would be shocked if these were the only gaps in her memory of this kind. And, yeah, the more names, the funnier it is, so...
    • I wonder what 45/47 did to piss off Musky, who should be fixing his social media platforms speeds... things been slow for WEEKS!
