    Everybody is warning us of the impact of the election. They’ve been warning us for years.

    The problem is that Americans stood up and either said “We know. We just don’t care.”, or “We know. We want it that way.”

      Then you’ve got the “Did Joe Biden step down?” crowd just completely oblivious lol.

      In the aftermath the number of fuckwits I saw not voting or voting against their own interests has been insane.

      Socialists sitting out because of Gaza.

      Black women complaining Trump won but not voting.

      Working class woman whose husband is in a union and he himself voted Harris; whose son is gay… Yep, she voted Trump.

      I’m so tired of trying to drag along stupid people.

      To know is not to be wise. Many men know a great deal, and are all the greater fools for it. There is no fool so great as a knowing fool. But to know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom.
