Great job, dipshits. I hope this personally impacts each and every person that voted for him.
Oh it definitely will. Just his tariff plans are gonna turn everywhere into a 3rd world country, not just the republican backwaters.
At this point, it’s just desserts. The US had it coming for even letting him run in the first place. That being said, Republican backwaters are going to get fucked way harder than metro populations. Poor boomers are going to get wiped out without social security, Medicaid, or kids that love them anymore. The south can enjoy the next hurricane without FEMA aid. Have fun watching your loved ones get deported because you thought this only impacted “illegals”, assholes. I have my popcorn ready.
Fuck em.
Unfortunately it’s worse than this. It seems like the GOP has successfully indoctrinated a new generation if incel supporters in high enough numbers to matter. If this trend continues the boomers can die and we’ll still be fucked.

I agree with everything except that last bit:
Fuck
emall of us.The splashback on this is going to hit everyone. I’m trying really hard not to be alarmist, but what happens with the American government literally has ramifications for everyone. We might not feel the hit right away, but the ripples will lap your shores too…
Ohh shit, I didn’t even consider the kids canceling the parents.
They will find a way to blame Democrats for it though
If they’re not rounded up and shot…
It’s going to impact an enormous amount of people who didn’t vote for him either though.
Its also going to impact the other 2/3rd of voters that dont give a fuck and dont vote at all. I hate this country so much
One side of me hopes they outlaw computer games and porn like it’s laid out in project 2025. Unfortunately, it will hit everyone, but I fear that this is gonna happen anyway.
Me too. I would love that positive change in my life.
As an Australian watching this all unfold I just can’t believe you guys did it again.
Seconded. The first time I was willing to write it off as frustrated voters being misled by a conman. This time is different. You all had four years under this rapist conman and enough people decided they’d go back for seconds. Despicable.
Doesn’t help they ran an unpopular candidate. I voted for Harris but too many racist sexiest people in America in both parties. Hell I heard democrats that joked when they voted for Obama that they voted for his white half. Harris was half black and half Indian. Also lot of black men wouldn’t cote for a woman especially one of color. And I heard a lot of Indian hated that she half black.
Oh definitely. The fascists and brainlets that voted for Trump are joined by the racists and sexists who abstained from voting for Harris. Now we all get to suffer the consequences of their squandered democracy.
Seems to me that the election results are showing just how sexists and racist the country is. People voting for trump because they like him are certainly that and people voting for trump because Harris is female and non white are that too.
As a fellow Australian, I don’t understand why you’re surprised.
“Hold your nose and vote for the lesser evil” may be pragmatic, but it doesn’t get people emotionally engaged. It doesn’t get you infectious enthusiasm and passion. It gets you reluctant, dejected compliance, and that simply does not catch fire.
On the other side you have nothing but emotional engagement; god knows it’s not a rational or pragmatic choice there. Trump does nothing but pander to hatred and cruelty and fear and the power fantasies of gullible idiots, and it fucking works. Cheap shallow emotional satisfaction, no matter how stupid an idea it is. You know, like junk food and binge drinking and cigarettes and pokies; things that people know full well are ruining their lives, but they continue to seek them out regardless.
If the dems ever want to win, they will have to make the progressives fall in love with them, and you don’t get that by backing genocide unconditionally, you just don’t.
They didn’t get the oh-god-yes, just a not-no, and that does not equal consent.
Nobody with an eighth of a brain needs that much extra reason to put out a house fire in their own house.
It’s exactly as surprising as they’re saying.
you are ignoring the fact that other option has been already burning their house already. would you buy again from wendy’s if their ad tell you to buys them because burger king is dogshit when they had sold you a moldy burger ?
I keep refreshing the page hoping for better results but I cannot believe my country is this fucking stupid
Hey now let’s not blame voters for their actions. There is exactly one acceptable blame target for anything and that’s obviously Democrats. Doesn’t matter the topic, it’s always the fault of Democrats. No matter what
From the inside it’s un fucking believable too
As an American…I’m just going to crash on your couch for the forseeable future.
Jesus fucking Christ not again
Dear anyone that voted for this useless cunt,
You are fucking retarded. Thanks for ruining everything for the rest of us, dipshit.
With absolutely no love, any creature with an actual brain.
I can’t fucking believe we did it to ourselves again I’m completely in shock, this is fucking ridiculous.
I would say the same thing but just drive a car somewhere some time. People are the stupidest most selfish garbage you can imagine. And nothing brings that behavior out of them like driving a car.
Under trump i doubt much “freedom inhibiting” transit will be built. And bike lanes are ablist so they are gone. Sidewalks will be gone too as only “poor people” walk so why waste taxes on them. Hell, he might even rip out a railway to build a highway, cause that’s more american.
Speaking of driving, that could be a protest measure. Super simple, super legal. Just obey all traffic laws, stay to the right, AND always drive 5 below the speed limit.
Sure it could elicit gunfire, vehicular assault, stalking. But the rear view mirror theater will be to die for.
The dumb bastards just gave Gaza to Bibi and Ukraine to Putin. And that is just a small part.
Welp, I’m going to skip work tomorrow and figure out how to get citizenship elsewhere. Fuck the US.
How much do you make? I’m up for some light marriage fraud if you’d like a Finnish citizenship.
Hahaha. Love it. Happily married though. But in all transparency I make ~$400k in the US, but similar prospects overseas probably pay closer to $80k from what I’ve heard.
I don’t mind a pay cut. But my research this far seems to indicate that settling down somewhere else permanently is difficult.
I’m an American living permanently in Germany. It is difficult, especially keeping on top of paperwork. It’s not impossible though, and even easier if you’re in tech (I’m assuming by the fivefold pay increase). If you learn the language of the place you’re trying to stay, it’s much easier.
Cool, I’ll look into it, thanks!
You can basically live indefinitely in the SEA with US passport (Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia). Find a in a nice liberal bubble with loads of other foreigners as long as you can make 2,000 usd/mo you’ll be quite comfy and free here.
I’ve long given up on being part of the core society and embraced the life in a bubble. It’s pretty awesome! Feel free to message me if you have any questions :)
I wish I were in a position to do this, but between being married and having a cat, dog, and horses…constant moving just doesn’t work.
I’ll leave my job and work at what amounts to a US mini mart. IDGAF. I’m just sick of this country.
I understand and wishing you strength with this 🙏
This is somehow less of a gut-punch than 2016 when everyone just assumed Americans would do the right thing and not elect Trump. It still sucks, but it’s less of a surprise. The writing was kind of on the wall for awhile though, just given the fact that the election was as close as it was. Even if Trump hadn’t won, that he was able to run the most garbage campaign in history and was still tying it up was pretty damning of America.
So now we watch as we just peacefully transfer power to the most vile, irresponsible person on Earth and watch the world burn.
I hate reality
I’m going to quote one of the great minds of our time.
“Is this real life???”
“Is this going to be forever???”
“aaahhhhhhhUUUGAAAHHHHHHH!!!”
~David after dentist. 2009.
It’s surprising how often a 10 year old high on drugs from 15 years ago is profound in describing situations of the modern day.
Welp. Remember guys save money. Those tariffs are gonna hit hard. Make friends, they will help you get through harder times. Workout and become physically stronger, you may need it. Archive books and studies and pieces of knowledge that may get banned.
And for right now, drink some water and go to sleep. No need in worrying about this right now. We’ll have plenty of time to do so anyways.
🤦🏼♂️
At this point a meteorite nuking our planet is probably better for everyone.
I guess people really do want fascism. We talk about it like it’s an obviously-awful thing, but apparently most Americans disagree. Most people around the world seem to disagree, in fact. We laugh about the idiots voting for Trump, but far right lunatics are gaining positions of power all over the planet. It’s not just Fox News-fed Americans.
It feels like we’re building up to something catastrophic.
Biden can still execute him as official presidential order
Can’t just execute Trump himself. Once Trump is dead, there’ll be dozens waiting to take his place. Gotta execute Trump, Vance, his cabinet, the Supreme Court so they can’t undo their decision to make the president a king, and any republican in office that didn’t turn their back on Trump
Jon Stewart on this
I love hearing a positive message right now.
But we just observed the majority wanting the racist misogynist horror show. Hard work doesn’t fix that.
